StoryMap use in free ed materials

Question

I do not know if this is the correct forum but will start here. I have gotten a question from a non-profit education group that I am working with. What are the terms of service for using StoryMaps in their FREE materials for classroom use in perpetuity? I also understand the contents of each StoryMap need to have all data to be open to share and fully cited. I appreciate any feedback on this.

Hi Anita,

Thanks for getting in touch. It's great to know our content resonates with our user community, particularly educators. For Esri's official terms of service, I will refer you to our official policy here. I cannot speak for all stories created at Esri, so it will likely depend on the story and how it is being used. It is best practice to reach out to the story author to ask how it should be cited and any additional questions about data use. I hope this helps.
