== Summary ==

This document defines "Free Cultural Works" as works or expressions which can be freely studied, applied, copied and/or modified, by anyone, for any purpose. It also describes certain permissible restrictions that respect or protect these essential freedoms. The definition distinguishes between ''free works'', and ''[[licenses|free licenses]]'' which can be used to legally protect the status of a free work. The definition itself is ''not'' a license; it is a tool to determine whether a work or license should be considered "free."

== Preamble ==

Social and technological advances make it possible for a growing part of humanity to ''access, create, modify, publish and distribute'' various kinds of works - artworks, scientific and educational materials, software, articles - in short: ''anything that can be represented in digital form''. Many communities have formed to exercise those new possibilities and create a wealth of collectively re-usable works.

Most authors, whatever their field of activity, whatever their amateur or professional status, have a genuine interest in favoring an ecosystem where works can be spread, re-used and derived in creative ways. The easier it is to re-use and derive works, the richer our cultures become. 

To ensure the graceful functioning of this ecosystem, works of authorship should be '''free''', and by ''freedom'' we mean:
* the '''freedom to use''' the work and enjoy the benefits of using it
* the '''freedom to study''' the work and to apply knowledge acquired from it
* the '''freedom to make and redistribute copies''', in whole or in part, of the information or expression
* the '''freedom to make changes and improvements''', and to distribute derivative works

These freedoms should be available to anyone, anywhere, anytime. They should not be restricted by the context in which the work is used. Creativity is the act of using an existing resource in a way that had not been envisioned before.

In most countries however, these freedoms are not enforced but suppressed by the laws commonly named ''copyright laws''. They consider authors as god-like creators and give them an exclusive monopoly as to how "their content" can be re-used. This monopoly impedes the flourishing of culture, and it does not even help the economic situation of authors so much as it protects the business model of the most powerful publishing companies.

In spite of those laws, authors can make their works free by choosing among a vast array of legal documents known as [[w:license|free licenses]]. For an author, choosing to put his work under a ''free license'' does not mean that he loses all his rights, but it gives to anyone the freedoms listed above.

It is important that any work that claims to be free provides, practically and without any risk, the aforementioned freedoms. This is why we hereafter give a precise '''definition of freedom''' for licenses and for works of authorship.

== Identifying Free Cultural Works ==

This is the ''Definition of Free Cultural Works'', and when describing your work, we encourage you to make reference to this definition, as in, "This is a freely licensed work, as explained in the ''Definition of Free Cultural Works''."  If you do not like the term "Free Cultural Work," you can use the generic term "Free Content," or refer instead to one of the [[Existing Movements|existing movements]] that express similar freedoms in more specific contexts. We also encourage you to use the [[logos and buttons|Free Cultural Works logos and buttons]], which are in the public domain.

Please be advised that such identification does ''not'' actually confer the rights described in this definition; for your work to be truly free, it must use one of the Free Culture [[Licenses]] or be in the public domain.

We discourage you to use other terms to identify Free Cultural Works which do not convey a clear definition of freedom, such as "Open Content" and "Open Access." These terms are often used to refer to content which is available under "less restrictive" terms than those of existing copyright laws, or even for works that are just "available on the Web".

== Defining Free Culture Licenses ==

Licenses are legal instruments through which the owner of certain legal rights may transfer these rights to third parties. Free Culture Licenses do not take any rights away -- they are always optional to accept, and if accepted, they grant freedoms which copyright law alone does not provide. When accepted, they never limit or reduce existing exemptions in copyright laws.

=== Essential freedoms ===

In order to be recognized as "free" under this definition, a license must grant the following freedoms without limitation:

* '''The freedom to use and perform the work:''' The licensee must be allowed to make any use, private or public, of the work. For kinds of works where it is relevant, this freedom should include all derived uses ("related rights") such as performing or interpreting the work. There must be no exception regarding, for example, political or religious considerations.
* '''The freedom to study the work and apply the information:''' The licensee must be allowed to examine the work and to use the knowledge gained from the work in any way. The license may not, for example, restrict "reverse engineering".
* '''The freedom to redistribute copies:''' Copies may be sold, swapped or given away for free, as part of a larger work, a collection, or independently. There must be no limit on the amount of information that can be copied. There must also not be any limit on who can copy the information or on where the information can be copied.
* '''The freedom to distribute derivative works:''' In order to give everyone the ability to improve upon a work, the license must not limit the freedom to distribute a modified version (or, for physical works, a work somehow derived from the original),  regardless of the intent and purpose of such modifications. However, some restrictions may be applied to protect these essential freedoms or the attribution of authors (see below).

=== Permissible restrictions ===

Not all restrictions on the use or distribution of works impede essential freedoms. In particular, requirements for attribution, for symmetric collaboration (i.e., "copyleft"), and for the protection of protection of essential freedom are considered [[permissible restrictions]].

== Defining Free Cultural Works ==

In order to be considered free, a work ''must'' be covered by a Free Culture License, or its legal status ''must'' provide the same ''essential freedoms'' enumerated above. It is not, however, a sufficient condition. Indeed, a specific work may be non-free in other ways that restrict the essential freedoms. These are the additional conditions in order for a work to be considered free:

* '''Availability of source data:''' Where a final work has been obtained through the compilation or processing of a source file or multiple source files, all underlying source data should be available alongside the work itself under the same conditions. This can be the score of a musical composition, the models used in a 3D scene, the data of a scientific publication, the source code of a computer application, or any other such information. 
* '''Use of a free format:''' For digital files, the format in which the work is made available should not be protected by patents, unless a world-wide, unlimited and irrevocable royalty-free grant is given to make use of the patented technology. While non-free formats may sometimes be used for practical reasons, a free format copy ''must'' be available for the work to be considered free.
* '''No technical restrictions:''' The work must be available in a form where no technical measures are used to limit the freedoms enumerated above.
* '''No other restrictions or limitations:''' The work itself must not be covered by legal restrictions (patents, contracts, etc.) or limitations (such as privacy rights) which would impede the freedoms enumerated above. A work may make use of existing legal exemptions to copyright (in order to cite copyrighted works), though only the portions of it which are unambiguously free constitute a free work.

In other words, whenever the user of a work cannot legally or practically exercise his or her basic freedoms, the work cannot be considered and should not be called "free."

== Versioning ==

New versions of this definition shall be released as soon as a consensus (achieved directly or through a vote, as per the [[authoring process]]) has developed around suggested changes. Numbering shall be 0.x for initial draft releases, 1.x, 2.x .. for major releases, x.1, x.2 .. for minor releases. A minor release is made when the text is modified in ways which do not have an impact on the scope of existing or hypothetical licenses covered by this definition.

== Kokkuvõte ==

Käesolev dokument defineerib "vabad kultuuriteosed" kui teosed või väljendusvormid, mida võib vabalt uurida, rakendada, kopeerida ja/või muuta igaühe poolt ning misiganes eesmärgil. Samtu kirjeldatakse teatavaid lubatavaid piiranguid, mis respekteerivad või kaitsevad neid põhivabadusi. Definitsioon eristab ''vabu teoseid'' ''vabadest litsentsidest'', mida võib kasutada vabade teoste staatuse õiguslikuks kaitseks. Definitsioon ise ''ei ole'' litsents; ta on vahend määratlemaks kas konkreetne teos või litsents on "vaba".

== Preambula ==

Sotsiaalsed ja tehnoloogilised edusammud võimaldavad üha suuremal osal inimkonnast ''juurdepääseda, luua, muuta, avaldada ja levitada'' mitmesuguseid teoseid — kunstiteoseid, teaduslike ja õppematerjale, tarkvara, artikleid — lühidalt: ''kõike, mida on võimalik esitada digitaalsel kujul''. Kasutamaks neid uusi võimalusi ja loomaks ühiselt taas-kasutavate teoste varasalve on tekkinud paljud kogukonnad.

Enamikel autoreil, misiganes valdkonnas nad ka tegevad on, ning sõltumata sellest, kas nad on amatöörid või professionaalid, on siiras huvi soodustamaks ökosüsteemi, kus teosed võivad levida, taas-kasutatud saada ning muudetud saada looval viisil. Mida lihtsam on töid taaskasutada ning muuta, seda rikkamaks saavad meie kultuurid.

Tagamaks selle ökosüsteemi ladusat toimimist, peab autorite looming olema '''vaba'''. Ning ''vabaduse'' all peame me silmas:
* '''vabadust kasutada''' teost ja ning nautida selle kasutamisest saadavaid hüvesid
* '''vabadus uurida''' teost ning rakendada sellest saadud teadmisi
* '''vabadus valmistada ja taaslevitada koopiaid''' kas infokogumi või väljendusvormi tervikust või selle osast
* '''vabadus teha muudatusi ning parendusi''' ning levitada tuletatud teoseid

Need vabadused peavad olema kättesaadavad kõigile, kõikjal ning igal ajal. Neid ei tohi piirata sõltuvalt kontekstist, kus teost parajasti kasutatakse. Loovus on olemasoleva ressursi kasutamine viisil, mida pole enne ette kujutatud.

Ometigi ei soodustata enamikes riikides neid vabadusi, vaid hoopis surutakse maha tavaliselt ''autoriõigusseadusteks'' nimetatavate seaduste abil. Need peavad autoreid kõigevägevama-laadseiks loojaiks ning annavad neile ainumonopoli kontrollimaks kuidas "nende sisu" võib taas-kasutada. See monopol takistab kultuuri õitsengut ning ei paranda isegi niivõrd autorite majanduslikku olukorda kuivõrd kaitseb kõige võimsamate meediaettevõtete ärimudelit.

Hoolimata neist seadustest saavad autorid teha oma teosed vabaks, valides mõne paljudest juriidilistest dokumentidest mida tuntakse kui [[w:license|vabad litsentsid]]. Autori jaoks ei tähenda oma teose ''vaba litsentsi'' alla panek, et ta loobuks sellega kõigist oma õigustest, vaid sellega ta annab kõigile ülalloetletud vabadused.

On oluline, et iga teos, mis väidab enda vaba olevat, annaks praktiliselt ning ilma igasuguse riskita ülaltoodud vabadused. Seetõttu anname me järgnevalt täpse '''vabaduse definitsiooni''' litsentside ning loometeoste jaoks.

== Vabade kultuuriteoste määratlemine ==

See on ''vabade kultuuriteoste definitsioon''. Kui Sa kirjeldad oma tööd, siis me soovitame Sul viidata käesolevale definitsioonile järgmiselt: "See teos on antud vaba litsentsi alla, tagatud vabadusi on selgitatud ''vabade kultuuriteoste definitsioonis''." Kui Sulle ei meeldi termin "vaba kultuuriteos", siis võid kasutada ka üldist terminit "vaba sisu", või viidata hoopis mõnele [[Existing Movements|olemasolevale liikumisele]], mis väljendab sarnaseid vabadusi spetsiifilisemas kontekstis. Me soovitame samuti kasutada [[logos and buttons|vabade kultuuriteoste logosid ja nuppe]], mis on antud ''public domain''i.

Pea meeles, et taoline määratlus ise '''ei''' anna veel õigusi, mis on kirjeldatud käesolevas definitsioonis, selleks et Sinu teos saaks tegelikult vabaks, peab see kasutama mõnda vaba kultuuri [[Licenses|litsentsi]] või olema ''public domain''is.

Me ei poolda vabade kultuuriteoste kohta selliste terminite kasutamist, mis ei anna selgelt edasi vabaduse ideed, nagu "avatud sisu" ja "avatud juurdepääs". Neid termineid kasutatakse sageli viitamaks sisule, mis on kasutatav autoriõiguse seaduste poolt seatud tingimustest "veidi vähem piiravatel" tingimustel või ka lihtsalt teoste kohta, mis on "veebist allalaetavad".

== Defining Free Culture Licenses ==

Licenses are legal instruments through which the owner of certain legal rights may transfer these rights to third parties. Free Culture Licenses do not take any rights away -- they are always optional to accept, and if accepted, they grant freedoms which copyright law alone does not provide. When accepted, they never limit or reduce existing exemptions in copyright laws.

=== Põhivabadused ===

Selleks, et litsentsi saaks lugeda sellele definitsioonile vastavalt "vabaks", peab ta ilma piiranguteta tagama järgnevad vabadused:

*'''Vabadus teost kasutada ning esitada:''' Litsentsisaaja peab saama õiguse teost mistahes viisil, kas isiklikul otstarbel või avalikult kasutada. Teoste puhul, kus see on vajalik, peab vabadus hõlmama ka kõiki tuletatud kasutusviise (autoriõigusega kaasnevaid) õigusi, nagu näiteks teose esitamine või interpreerimine. Seal ei tohi teha ühtegi erandit, näiteks poliitilistel või religioossetel kaalutlustel.
*'''Vabadus teost uurida ning saadud teavet rakendada:''' Litsentsisaaja peab saama õiguse teost uurida ning kasutada teosest omandatud teadmisi mistahes viisil. Litsents ei või näiteks piirata "reverse engineering'ut".
*'''Vabadus koopiaid taaslevitada:''' Koopiad võib müüa, vahetada või tasuta välja jagada, kas osana mõnest teisest teosest, kollektsioonist või eraldiseisvalt. Ei tohi olla piirangut sellele kuipalju informatsiooni võib kopeerida. Samuti ei tohi olla piirangut sellele, kes saab inforrmatsiooni kopeerida või sellele kas informatsiooni üldse saab kopeerida.
*'''Vabadus levitada tuletatud teoseid:''' Tagamaks kõigile võimaluse teost täiustada, ei tohi litsents piirata vabadust levitada muudetud versiooni (või füüsiliste teoste puhul mingil moel originaalist tuletatud teost), sõltumata taoliste modifikatsioonide eesmärgist ning mõttest. Samas võidakse seada mõned piirangud kaitsmaks neid põhivabadusi või või autoritele viitamist (vaata allpool).

=== Lubatavad piirangud ===

Sugugi mitte kõik teoste kasutamisele või levitamisele seatavad piirangud ei pärsi põhivabadusi. Täpsemalt loetakse nõudeid viitamisele, sümmeetrilisele kaastööle (s.o. copyleft'ile) ning põhivabaduste kaitsmiseks [[permissible restrictions|lubatavateks piiranguteks]].
