Welcome to the MOU and Polices Summary Page!

As Creative Commons works to improve its Affiliate program and network, we want to ensure that our Project Leads and Affiliates are part of the process. To this end, we invite you to read the current drafts of our new Memorandum of Understanding and our updated policies that particularly impact our Affiliates. We encourage you to leave feedback.
