Hi,

I’m a individual CC subscriber and want to begin creating content (publications, graphics, etc) to sell commercially.

Is my right to use for a commercial purpose content I create using CC software under my subscription as an individual dependent on my continuing to pay a subscription?

If my individual subscription lapses does my right to use for a commercial purpose the content I created using the CC software change in any way?

I need to understand this if I am to be able to run a business.

Thanks for you help.

Your creations are yours, independent of the license model you have. Look at the software tools like the tailors tools. The tailor can commercialise his creations regardless of he bought the tools, rented the tools or leased the tools.

If you cancel your subscription, your creations will still belong to you, bat you cannot be able to modify them until you take a subscription again. The shortest subscription period is a month.
