Legal Agreements
License Agreement
This licence agreement between you and Ozzysnapz specifies how you may utilise the content you have licenced from the company. You agree to the terms of this agreement by downloading content from Ozzysnapz.
1. What type of License does Ozzysnapz offer?
The two sorts of licences that Ozzysnapz offers are standard and extended. Every file downloaded from Ozzysnapz comes with a standard license. An extended license gives you additional rights in exchange for an additional license fee. Your use of the content is governed by the standard licencing terms unless you purchase an extended licence.
a) Standard License
With a Standard license, you may:
- Reproduce up to 500,000 copies of the asset in printing media, including editorial pieces, product packaging and printed marketing materials.
- Include the asset in email marketing, mobile advertising, or a broadcast or digital program.
- Upload the asset to a website with no limitation on views.
- Post the asset to a social media site with attributions but with no limitation on views.
- Include the asset in some types of products, such as inside a textbook, as long as the primary value of the product is not the asset itself, and the product is not printed more than 500,000 times.
b) Extended License
With an Extended license, you may:
- Use the asset with all the rights granted in the Standard license.
- Reproduce the asset beyond the 500,000 copy restriction.
- Create merchandise or products for resale or distribution where the main value of the product is associated with the asset itself, such as a coffee mug or t-shirt.
None of these Licenses gives you the right to distribute or resell the images.
The rights granted to you by Ozzysnapz are:
- Perpetual, meaning there is no expiration or end date on your rights to use the content downloaded during your agreement.
- Non-exclusive, meaning that you do not have exclusive rights to use the content. Ozzysnapz can license the same content to other customers.
- Worldwide, meaning content can be used in any geographic territory.
- Unlimited, meaning you can use the images in an unlimited number of projects and in any media (Considering the views’ restrictions on a Standard License).
For purposes of this agreement, “use” means to copy, reproduce, modify, edit, display, broadcast, publish or otherwise make use of.
2. Restrictions
- No Unlawful Use. You may not use content in a pornographic, defamatory or other unlawful manner, to promote violence or hatred, or in violation of any applicable regulations or industry codes.
- Resale is prohibited. Unless you purchase an extended license, you may not use content in connection with any goods or services intended for resale or distribution where the primary value lies in the content itself including, without limitation, cards, stationery items, calendars, apparel items, posters (printed on paper, canvas, or any other media), or other items for resale, license or other distribution for profit. This includes “on demand” products (meaning products in which content is selected by a third party for customization on such product on a made-to-order basis).
- No Standalone File Use. You may not use content in any way that allows others to download, extract, or redistribute content as a standalone file (meaning just the content file itself, separate from the project or end use).
- No False Representation of Authorship. You may not falsely represent that you are the original creator of an end use that is made up largely of licensed content. For instance, you cannot create a framed printing based on licensed content and claim that you are the author.
- No Electronic Templates. Unless you purchase an extended license, you may not use content in electronic or digital templates intended for resale or other distribution (for example, website templates, business card templates, electronic greeting card templates, brochure design templates).
- Limited print run. Unless you purchase an extended license, you may not reproduce the content more than 500,000 times in physical print form. This restriction does not apply to electronic reproduction.
3. Who, besides me, can use the licensed content?
The rights granted to you are non-transferable and non-sublicensable, meaning that you cannot transfer or sublicense them to anyone else.
4. Intellectual property rights
Who owns the content?
All of the licensed content is owned by either Ozzysnapz or the artists who supply the content. All rights not expressly granted in this agreement are reserved by iStock and the content suppliers.
Attributions
Do I need to include a photo credit? You only need to include photo credit when posting on Social Media sites and when using content for editorial purposes. You must include it adjacent to the content or in visual production credits.
5. Refunds & Withdrawals
a) Refunds
File Download Refunds – Ozzysnapz does not offer refunds for downloaded files. File returns will only be considered based on technical issues with the file at the sole discretion of Ozzysnapz.
