CCPlus
CC+denotes the combination of aCC official license (unmodified and verbatim)+another separate and independent agreement granting more permissions.
It isNOTa new or different license or any license at all, but a facilitation ofmore PermissionsbeyondANYstandard CC licenses. Worth emphasizing is that CC+ (and use of that mark) requires that the work be licensed under a standard CC license that provides a baseline set of permissions that have not been modified or customized but reproduces the license verbatim. The plus (+) signifies that all of those same permissions are granted, plus more.
Note that in order to use CC+ the additional permissions must be set forth in a separate document or resource -- the official legal code within the "corners" of the license cannot be added to or changed.

Simple Explanation
The basic concept is to have a Creative Commons license + some other agreement which provides morePermissions.
+
NOTE: Above, the CC license should link to the human deed and the generic commercial license would link to a place to get a commercial license for a work. The COMMERCIAL LICENSE is generic and should be tailored for specific uses with specific names of copyright holders.
Here is the SVG (vector graphic)to the generic button if you would like to construct a commercial licensing button for your usage. The button isreleased into the public domain.

Use Cases
- Restrict commercial use with a CC license with the NonCommercial condition, and then use a separate agreement with some party (could be yourself or third-party) to broker commercial rights (licensing, sales, reproduction, etc).
- Require that adaptions are shared with a CC license with the ShareAlike condition, but offer a separate agreement (as above) for parties that do not want to release derivatives under the same license. Similar use cases for offering a private agreement for parties that wish to avoid fulfilling the Attribution or NoDerivatives properties of applicable CC licenses.
- Offer a private agreement for parties that require one (eg for institutional policy or insurance reasons), even if their use would be within the scope of the public license grant.
- To implement some type ofStreet Performer Protocolsystem to put works to the public domain or into another license, preferably more free and in the community interest.

FAQ
什么是解释CC+的简单方法?
CC+ is just what it sounds like, a Creative Commons license plus another agreement. A copyright holder might pair a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial license [CC] with a non-exclusive commercial agreement [+] enabling a company to license the work commercially for a fee.
Isn't CC+ just a technological facilitation of dual licensing?
Yes. A copyright holder who uses a Creative Commons license is already adding a license on top of their copyright. CC+ can make it easier for that copyright-holder to add other non-exclusive licenses/agreements as alternatives.
