MorphoBank does not own the cooyright of the media it hosts. Media (e.g., 2D and 3D images, video) are placed on MorphoBank by content providers from the scientific community at large. These content providers also upload information on the copyright status of media and the restrictions governing the reuse of media.  MorphoBank encourages open sharing of media but leaves the decision to content providers as to which Creative Commons license suits their research needs.

MorphoBank encourages content providers to choose CC0 or CC-BY reuse policies because they (and only they) are Open Data licenses. Please be aware that choosing an NC (non-commercial usage only) license may prevent your data submission from being used on open-content only websites such as Wikipedia. If you wish to reuse any media on MorphoBank you must also check the restrictions governing the media's reuse and adhere to those restrictions.
