CC licenses do not support additional conditions. Once you have added additional conditions, your work is no longer under one of the standard CC licenses, but is rather subject your own customized license. When this happens, your work is no longer mixable with other CC licensed works, thereby preventing remixing in future derivations and adaptations of your material – likely defeating your reasons for openly licensing the work in the first place! If you want to add more restrictive conditions to a work, you’re probably better of leaving it under ARR copyright, since fair use exceptions allow people to use it for certain purposes anyway. | CC licenses do not support additional conditions.

CC licenses do not support additional conditions. Once you have added additional conditions, your work is no longer under one of the standard CC licenses, but is rather subject your own customized license. When this happens, your work is no longer mixable with other CC licensed works, thereby preventing remixing in future derivations and adaptations of your material – likely defeating your reasons for openly licensing the work in the first place! If you want to add more restrictive conditions to a work, you’re probably better of leaving it under ARR copyright, since fair use exceptions allow people to use it for certain purposes anyway.
