| sa= — ShareAlike — Derivative works of the material must be shared under the same or a compatible license.

| nc= — NonCommerical — The material must not be used for commercial purposes.

| nd= — NoDerivatives — The material must not be modified. If this is set to true, the right to remix is automatically removed.
