   Thanks for your feedback! We don't host any of the images, we link people directly to the source. Flickr does have orders of magnitude more images than other providers. We will add making the source more prominent to our list of issues

   All content is not CC0, we index content shared under all CC licenses and public domain. You can filter by license or usage rights. Adding audio is planned for Q4. Video will likely be in 2020. We already have an API, although we're no

   Thanks for the feedback, we'll add browser navigation to our list of things to fix. Our search is still pretty naive, a big chunk of our upcoming work will be focused on improving results.

    Thanks for the feedback chmars! CC Search is hosted at search.creativecommons.org so assets loaded from creativecommons.org should not count as third-party content or tracking. Let me know if I'm missing something.

    Thanks for the feedback! A big chunk of our upcoming work is going to be towards improving search relevance. We also plan to add content types other than images this year, starting with open textbooks and audio, so that will differentiate u

    Thanks for the feedback! Currently the search query parsing is pretty naive and some search terms work far better than others. A big chunk of our work over the next few months is going to be focused on improving search relevance.

    Thanks for your feedback! We plan to add audio to CC Search later this year (probably in Q4). We will have searching by license type built in from the beginning and those all sound like great filters to add.

    Thanks for the feedback! We are working with Flickr to ensure that we are able to index all their CC-licensed images; currently there's an issue with their API that hides some images. It should be resolved by the end of the summer. We

    We do our best to verify the license but cannot 100% guarantee that the image is CC-licensed. We have custom scripts that we use to ingest content from each content provider. For Flickr, we use their API which contains license information f

    We plan to implement an API for users to submit CC-licensed works that they'd like to add to our database later this year. Once we have that, you can call our API when you publish a new CC-licensed work and we'll automatically add

    In my case, it's because my gender is not important to my identity and the constant harping about "women in tech" means that people pay way too much attention to my gender. I'm just another person!
