As a photographer or visual content creator, you know how important it is to protect your work and control how your images and videos are used. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a game-changing new feature that puts the power of licensing in your hands!
We developed the Image Licensing feature to help you showcase your chosen license type on your website. Now, with just a couple of clicks, you can make it clear to visitors how they can (and can’t) use your work.

It’s that easy!
Choose from a Variety of License Types
With the image licensing feature, you have the flexibility to choose the license that best fits your needs. Whether you prefer a more restrictive or open approach, we’ve got you covered. Here’s an overview of the license types available:
- 4.0 International Deed (CC BY 4.0)
- Users can share and adapt your work for any purpose, including commercial use. Requires attribution.
- NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0)
- Users can share and adapt your work for non-commercial purposes. Requires attribution.
- No Derivatives (CC BY-ND 4.0)
- Users can share your work for any purpose, including commercial use, but they can’t adapt (remix, transform, or build upon) the material. Requires attribution.
- NonCommercial 4.0 No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0)
- Users can share your work for non-commercial purposes, but they can’t adapt (remix, transform, or build upon) the material. Requires attribution.
