Creative commons license are tools that give everyone from individual creators to large companies and institutions a simple, standardized way to grant copyright permissions to their creative work. The combination of the tools and users contribute a pool of content that can be copied, distributed, edited, remixed, and built upon without going beyond the boundaries of copyright law.

There are types of creative commons licensing application in Flickr:

 Attribution means you let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your copyrighted work ---and derivative works based on it---but only if they give you credit.

Noncommercial means you let others copy, distribute, display and perform your work---and derivative works based on it---but for noncommercial purpose only. 

 No Derivative Works means you let others copy, distribute, display and perform only verbatim copies of your work, not derivative works based upon it.

Share Alike means you allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work.
