Hi all! New with a quick question

Post by JordieMitch »

Hello everyone!

I've been with Constant Content for a few weeks now and just sold my first article. It was purchased for a usage license, at least I thought it was. They put in an offer (I accepted) and under the license category it said "Use," which I assumed meant a Usage license. I just googled my article and found it. Upon reading it, I noticed words were changed along with no credit given to me as the author. It was actually published under a different author's name. Of course, I would have no problem with this had they paid the price for the full rights license. Anyways, my question is this - Have I misunderstood the definition of each license or has the client misused this license? If so, what should I do (if anything can be done)?

Thank you for your time and help!

Double check to make sure it didn't sell for full rights. Next, if it was altered, contact support. Customers also have obligations to meet when purchasing from CC.

I double checked and it was sold as Usage rights. I'll contact support, thank you! I'm excited about the possibilities with Constant Content, it seems like a great opportunity with friendly staff and writers!
