Answers.Text: This answer is misleading since it refers to Creative Commons licenses as a fixed set of granted rights, which is not only false, but the contrary is the case. With a CC license, the author decides which rights he or she grants people. that's the main reason creative Commons was established in the first place. Creative Commons licenses can cover everything, from a public domain license up to a standard copyright license in terms of use limitations. For example it is NOT uncommon that a CC license states "No derivative work"...

Answers.Text: Additionally, as mentioned in another answer, giving advice in terms of copyright is a complex thing, since copyrights vary extremely from country to country. The "fair use" case, which is pretty common in the US can easily get you sued in Germany, so I'd be extremely careful with these kind of advice.

Title: Can I use the videos marked as "youtube standard license" for a non profit video?
UserDisplayName: Daniele B
ThreadText: # Can I use the videos marked as "youtube standard license" for a non profit video?
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2013-01-28)
  
  I'm creating a video for my institution.
  
  It's a scientific institution, so I suppose that the video can be considered no-profit (we don't make it to sell our products but to show our scientific project).
  
  I already searched around for explanations about the youtube standard license, but it seems there is not much clear information on that: only vague posts ( [google groups](http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/youtube/N7LaB524fkA) or [yahoo answers](http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110725170611AANFmJo) ) in which there is not a clear reference to the term of use (which I'm not able to read as I'm not a lawyer), while there is much documentation on the [CC BY](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/) license.
  
  So my questions are:
  
  1. can I use the videos marked as "*youtube standard license*" for this video, of course citing the source?
  2. In case I can't, do you know any other place where I can take video I can use for this non commercial purpose of makning a scientific video to show the project?
