Legal and rights posture.
GiffyTea separates reference search, commercial-safe use, source attribution, and takedown handling. The catalog is organized into explicit rights tiers: owned, licensed, public domain, partner, user uploaded, and external reference.
Reference lane
External reference assets are source-linked, attribution-forward, high takedown risk, not ads-eligible, and not marked commercial-safe.
Clean lane
Owned, licensed, partner, and public-domain assets can become commercial-safe only when the catalog marks commercial use and derivatives as allowed.
