Provider description

Up to July 2017, Pixabay hosted images only under the CC0 1.0 license. https://web.archive.org/web/20161229043156/https://pixabay.com/en/service/terms/ . In July 2017, Pixabay switched the old sitewide license for all uploads from Creative Commons CC0 to a custom license arrangement that does not meet the Creative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain Dedication license terms.
Openverse could index all images from Pixabay that were uploaded before this change, as the CC0 dedication is non-revokable.

Licenses Provided

CC0 1.0

Checklist to complete before beginning development

• Verify there is a way to retrieve the entire relevant portion of the provider's collection in a systematic way via their API.
• Verify the API provides license info (license type and version; license URL provides both, and is preferred)
• Verify the API provides stable direct links to individual works.
• Verify the API provides a stable landing page URL to individual works.
• Note other info the API provides, such as thumbnails, dimensions, attribution info (required if non-CC0 licenses will be kept), title, description, other meta data, tags, etc.
• Attach example responses to API queries that have the relevant info.

Implementation
