Rightscredit “Alamy Stock Photo” read from the file's own embedded metadata (image_meta.credit in _wp_attachment_metadata), which the import did not carry over; the file's own embedded copyright field holds "Credit: Suzanne Long / Alamy Stock Photo" — a rights statement, not a licence, so no licence is recorded. Derived from the WordPress record, not established by a person: nobody has confirmed this.
