Here at WebDisk, we offer predefined license texts for our uploaders. These include what the user may do with the downloaded file. Here is a quick overview of our current list of licenses.
The table below can be used as a decision help with basic differences between the available options. When clicking into the "name" column, you are directed to the full license text. This overview does not replace the full license texts nor is it an addition to them. We can't ensure 100% accuracy and completness of the content below.
We're sorry that the table below isn't displayed correctly on mobile devices. Please use the desktop mode in order to get the whole content.

* By German law, broadcasters and influencers, including video creators and streamers on YouTube, Twitch & Co., who earn money with their videos (e.g. enabled monatisation or any other "partner programs") are affected by this. If you want to allow the usage of your add-on, add a notice to your license text that presenting your add-on in videos is not "commercial use" but advertising in your view.
Errors excepted, recourse to the courts is not permitted.
