1. Grant and Scope of Licence

1. In consideration of making the Resources available to you to download, you agree to abide by the terms of this Licence and we hereby grant to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the Resources under the terms and conditions of this Licence.

YOU MAY NOT:

  1. Resell a resource directly or within a wider design/product where the original resource can be extracted in its’ original form. Please see the general and resource specific FAQs for further details.
  2. Resell a website template whereby the embedded fonts, graphics or other resources can be extracted. For example – web fonts, or background textures could be extracted by a new customer, without them owning this original licence – this is not acceptable. This is acceptable when the template files are passed on to an individual client, although a licence will be required for both yourself, and your client, to justify this.
  3. Resell a logo template, where the fonts or graphics are used in a stand alone fashion i.e., with no supported elements, and not constituting a ‘wider, original design’. Using fonts in a stand alone fashion for logos is acceptable for individual client projects and personal use, but not for templates sold en-mass.
  4. Use fonts or graphics within ebooks or downloadable publications whereby the fonts or graphics can be extracted in their original form from this document.
  5. Use fonts to create alphabets or letterform related products, digital alphabets (alphas), embroidery letters, die-cut products, or stencil products for sale.
