Feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's great that we enable the download of the "greatest hits" examples of calls, whistles, and clicks from the v3 learn page at https://live.orcasound.net/learn, but ideally we'd convey the Creative Commons licensing (BY-SA-NC) along with any download options. In the longer run, since ripping any audio stream is easy these days, it may be optimal to generally post the license within the web app.
Describe the solution you'd like
Short term: Add a discrete CC-BY-NC-SA icon below the sound clips?
Long term: Add a CC-BY-SA-NC icon in the footer of the entire web app so that it is always visible, and link it to the same sort of guidance that is currently in the footer of the Wordpress site (at orcasound.net) --
Here is the attribution text from that footer:
Please attribute with a hypertext link (text should be "Orcasound" and URL should be orcasound.net) and ask for permission before any commercial use via info@orcasound.net
Describe alternatives you've considered

repo) and then just link to it discretely from the web app. The page could have details about attribution for audio data, and maybe add links to Orcasound Github with some context for how we chose/choose to license software vs labeled data vs algorithms (Responsible AI Licenses)...Additional context
We might want to revisit licensing in next MOA for Orcasound and as a community, perhaps becoming more permissive over time?
For example, Orcasound currently uses CC-BY-NC-SA for audio data (and by proxy audio data products like labels), but we are poised to post human and machine detections into the Acartia data cooperative which itself only carries a CC-BY license...
