Capitalized terms not defined in these General Terms have the meaning given to them in the applicable Supplemental License Rules, and each such definition is incorporated into these General Terms by reference. If a term is defined differently in more than one set of Supplemental License Rules, each definition applies only to the License governed by that set of Supplemental License Rules.

“Agreement” means these General Terms, every set of Supplemental License Rules applicable to the licensed use identified in the Order Confirmation (including a set of Supplemental License Rules first adopted by Schrifteria after the date of these General Terms), any custom terms identified in the Order Confirmation, and the Order Confirmation.

“Authorized Person” means the License Owner, if the License Owner is an individual, and any individual employee, contractor, developer, or representative of an agency, printer, or service provider whom the applicable Supplemental License Rules expressly permit to access the Font Software solely for the licensed use.

“Business License Owner” means any License Owner that is not a Consumer, including a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, association, governmental body, nonprofit entity, or other organization, and including an individual, sole proprietor, or independent contractor who acquires or uses the Font Software for a business, commercial, professional, governmental, or organizational purpose.

“Consumer” means an individual who acquires the Font Software exclusively for personal, family, or household purposes and not for any business, commercial, or professional purpose. Every License Owner is either a Consumer or a Business License Owner.

“Font Software” means the font software identified in the Order Confirmation, in the file format supplied by Schrifteria, together with related documentation and any Updates made available for the same product.

“License” means the right to use the Font Software for a particular licensed use identified in the Order Confirmation. A License for Desktop, Web, App, Logo, or Trial use is governed by the Supplemental License Rules corresponding to that licensed use. A License for any other licensed use is governed by the custom terms identified in the Order Confirmation. For example, a “Web License” is a License governed by the Supplemental Web License Rules, and an “App License” is a License governed by the Supplemental App License Rules.

“Metric” means the usage-based measure applicable to a License, as defined in the Supplemental License Rules governing that License — for example, Aggregate Monthly Web Volume for a Web License or Monthly Active Users for an App License.

“Order Confirmation” means an order confirmation, invoice, trial request and acceptance record, or other transaction record accepted or issued by Schrifteria that identifies the License Owner and Font Software and, as applicable to the particular License, the license type, tier or Metric, term, fees, and other transaction-specific terms. For a Trial License, the completed trial request and acceptance record constitutes the Order Confirmation for purposes of the Agreement.

“Privacy Policy” means Schrifteria’s privacy policy published at https://schrifteria.xyz/privacypolicy, as updated from time to time.

“Site” means Schrifteria’s website through which the Font Software or related services are offered or ordered.

“Supplemental License Rules” means the separate rules governing a particular licensed use, including the Supplemental Desktop, Web, App, Logo, or Trial License Rules, and any other supplemental rules expressly identified in the Order Confirmation. Schrifteria may present all sets of Supplemental License Rules together with these General Terms in a single combined document for acceptance purposes; doing so does not expand a License Owner’s rights beyond the licensed use actually identified in its Order Confirmation.

“Update” means a correction, technical improvement, added character or language support, or other change that Schrifteria continues to market as the same Font Software product. A renamed product remains the same product unless its design is substantially reworked and released as a separate product.

Subject to payment of all applicable fees and continued compliance with the Agreement, Schrifteria grants the License Owner a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable License to use the Font Software worldwide during the applicable term and solely within the scope, Metric, and permitted uses stated in the applicable Supplemental License Rules and Order Confirmation.

If more than one type of licensed use is required, each applicable set of Supplemental License Rules must be identified in the Order Confirmation. A right granted under one set of Supplemental License Rules does not authorize a use governed by another set. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

A payer, employee, agency, designer, or other purchaser may acquire a License for a different License Owner only if the actual License Owner is separately identified. No purchaser may aggregate different clients, brands, legal entities, products, or projects under another License Owner’s License.

The License Owner may provide an Authorized Person only the access expressly permitted by the applicable Supplemental License Rules and reasonably necessary for the licensed use.

Every Authorized Person who is an individual must be at least 18 years old, except that an individual who is at least 13 but under 18 years old may be an Authorized Person solely for the noncommercial student use permitted under Section T4 of the Supplemental Trial License Rules. Before the minor may access or use the Font Software, (a) the minor must affirmatively accept and sign the Agreement and agree to comply with its terms, and (b) the minor’s parent or legal guardian must separately affirmatively consent to the minor’s acceptance and accept and sign the Agreement on the minor’s behalf. Both signatures are required. The parent’s or legal guardian’s acceptance does not make the parent or legal guardian a License Owner or Authorized Person, and the minor remains the sole License Owner under the Trial License.

Before providing access to any other Authorized Person, the License Owner must ensure that the Authorized Person is bound by written confidentiality and use restrictions at least as protective as the Agreement, except where the applicable Supplemental License Rules expressly provide a narrower written undertaking for a limited service-provider role.

Except as expressly permitted by the applicable Supplemental License Rules, an Authorized Person may not use the Font Software for another client, entity, project, product, brand, or purpose and must permanently delete all copies when access is no longer necessary.

The License Owner is responsible for every Authorized Person’s conduct and for all use of the Font Software through access provided directly or indirectly by the License Owner.

Except to the limited extent expressly permitted by the applicable Supplemental License Rules or non-waivable law, you and all Authorized Persons must not:

1. sell, sublicense, rent, lend, distribute, transfer, publish, share, or otherwise make the Font Software available to an unauthorized person;
2. convert the Font Software into another format;
3. modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative font software;
4. remove or alter proprietary notices, embedding restrictions, names, metadata, technical protection, or license identifiers;
5. use the Font Software beyond the purchased license type, term, brand, product, tier, Metric, or number of users;
6. use the Font Software to provide a shared font library, font-as-a-service offering, template library, editor, generator, personalization tool, or other service allowing an end user to select, manipulate, or export typography unless Schrifteria agrees to custom terms; or
7. use the Font Software in violation of law or third-party rights.

You must not, directly or indirectly, and must not permit any Authorized Person or other person to: upload or provide the Font Software to an artificial-intelligence or machine-learning system; include it in a training, validation, fine-tuning, or similar dataset; or use it or its design to train, generate, develop, or distribute a competing or derivative typeface.

Ordinary use of the Font Software in a graphics or design application that includes AI-enabled tools is not prohibited if the Font Software itself is not uploaded to or processed by an AI system, used for training or fine-tuning, or used to create a competing or derivative typeface.

A violation of this Section constitutes a willful and material breach and may result in immediate termination under Section 14. No cure period applies.

You acknowledge that the Font Software and related documentation are provided under license, and not sold, to you. You do not acquire any ownership interest in the Font Software or related documentation under this Agreement, or any right to the Font Software other than to use it in accordance with the License granted under this Agreement, subject to all terms, conditions, and restrictions. Schrifteria shall retain its entire right, title, and interest in and to the Font Software and in the underlying typeface designs, glyphs, names, source materials, and related intellectual property rights, including all intellectual property rights arising out of or relating to the Font Software, subject only to the License expressly granted to the License Owner in this Agreement. No permitted output, embedding, installation, subsetting, or other licensed use transfers ownership in the Font Software. You must use commercially reasonable measures to protect the Font Software, and all copies of it, from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

When Schrifteria releases an Update to Font Software the License Owner has purchased, Schrifteria will notify purchasers and make the Update available at no additional charge for download from the customer account or on request. Corrections, technical improvements, added characters or language support, and a mere renaming remain Updates when Schrifteria continues to offer the typeface as the same product; a substantially redesigned release marketed as a separate new product must be purchased separately.

Schrifteria provides technical support for original, unmodified files purchased directly from Schrifteria, for as long as Schrifteria continues to support the product. Schrifteria does not guarantee lifetime support or compatibility with every application, device, operating system, or future software version.

Fees are due in advance, as stated in the Order Confirmation. Once access to the Font Software has been provided, or, for a Logo License that does not itself provide access to the Font Software, once that Logo License has been issued, all purchases are final and non-refundable. This non-refund rule does not apply if Schrifteria caused a billing or technical error, the original files supplied by Schrifteria are defective, or applicable law requires a refund, replacement, or other remedy. Incompatibility between the Font Software and the License Owner’s own software, hardware, operating system, or workflow, a failure to review technical requirements, or an accidental purchase does not count as a Schrifteria technical error.

Schrifteria will disclose this no-refund policy before purchase. Disabling automatic renewal does not end a License during its current paid term and does not entitle the License Owner to a prorated refund. The License Owner is responsible for applicable transaction taxes, other than taxes on Schrifteria’s own net income.

If a payment required for renewal or continued licensed use is declined, reversed, charged back, or otherwise not received, Schrifteria may notify the License Owner and provide a reasonable opportunity to correct the payment failure. Unless applicable law requires otherwise, an annual License does not renew if the required renewal payment is not successfully completed. A chargeback or reversal of a payment for a License already provided does not by itself terminate the License Owner’s payment obligation or create any right to continue using the Font Software without payment.

You must maintain accurate records reasonably sufficient to determine compliance with the applicable licensed Metric. If Schrifteria has reasonable grounds to believe that the licensed scope, tier, or number of users has been exceeded, Schrifteria may request a written certification, signed by the License Owner or, if the License Owner is an organization, by an officer, owner, or authorized manager of the License Owner, stating the applicable Metric and the measurement period, together with reasonably necessary aggregated usage data or documentary support. Schrifteria may retain a certification provided under this Section for the term of the Agreement plus three years. Schrifteria has no general right to access your internal systems.

If a Web or App Metric exceeds the purchased tier under the applicable three-consecutive-month averaging method, Schrifteria will notify you of the calculation and applicable higher tier. For an annual License, Schrifteria will also state the exact prorated additional fee. Within 30 calendar days after notice, you must affirmatively purchase the appropriate higher tier. Schrifteria will not charge a Consumer’s stored payment method for a midterm tier increase without the Consumer’s separate affirmative confirmation.

For an annual Web or App License, no retroactive recalculation applies; the additional fee is prospective and prorated for the remainder of the current annual term, the renewal date does not change, and the next renewal will use the then-applicable tier.

For a perpetual Web or App License, no retroactive usage fee applies. If the applicable Metric remains above the purchased tier, the License Owner must, within the same 30-day period, purchase the applicable higher perpetual tier. The additional fee is the positive difference between the fee previously paid for the existing perpetual tier and Schrifteria’s then-current fee for the applicable higher perpetual tier. After payment, the License remains perpetual at the higher tier.

A tier overage alone is not grounds for immediate termination, but failure to cure or pay an accepted upgrade fee may result in suspension or termination after further notice, and knowing, sustained concealment of a confirmed overage, as distinct from good-faith, undetected growth, is a willful breach under Section 14.8.

Schrifteria warrants that it has the right to grant the License.

For a period of 30 days following the date access to the Font Software is first provided, Schrifteria warrants that the original, unmodified Font Software files materially conform to Schrifteria’s published specifications.

For any breach of the 30-day file-conformity warranty, the exclusive remedy, at Schrifteria’s option, is correction or replacement of the affected files or a refund of the fee paid for them. If Schrifteria breaches its warranty that it has the right to grant the License, the License Owner retains any remedy that cannot lawfully be limited by this Agreement.

The file-conformity warranty does not apply to files modified by anyone other than Schrifteria, or to problems resulting from misuse or unsupported environments. The warranty also does not guarantee compatibility with every application, device, operating system, or future software version.
This warranty period does not limit the duration of technical support available under Section 7.

THIS SECTION APPLIES ONLY IF THE LICENSE OWNER IS A BUSINESS LICENSE OWNER. A CONSUMER HAS NO INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION UNDER THIS SECTION.

A Business License Owner will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Schrifteria and its owner, employees, contractors, agents, and licensors from and against third-party claims, damages, judgments, settlements, penalties, costs, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from the Business License Owner’s or an Authorized Person’s breach of the Agreement or unauthorized or unlawful use of the Font Software, except to the extent such claims arise from Schrifteria’s breach of the Agreement, gross negligence, or willful misconduct.

The indemnification obligations in this Section are in addition to, and do not limit, Schrifteria’s rights or remedies for the Business License Owner’s breach of the Agreement, including any direct losses or enforcement costs otherwise recoverable under applicable law.

14.1 Term. The applicable term and renewal method are stated in the Order Confirmation and Supplemental License Rules. A perpetual License continues unless terminated for breach in accordance with this Section 14. An annual License has a term of 12 months.

14.2 Renewal Method. For an annual Desktop, Web, or App License with a total license fee below USD 2,000 (or the equivalent amount in the currency of purchase), the Order Confirmation may provide for automatic renewal for successive 12-month terms unless cancelled, with the applicable renewal fee charged automatically to the payment method on file absent timely cancellation. For an annual Desktop, Web, or App License with a total license fee at or above that threshold, Schrifteria will not charge the License Owner automatically; renewal occurs only through a separate renewal transaction that the License Owner affirmatively completes.

The USD 2,000 threshold governs only whether renewal proceeds by automatic charge or by a separate affirmative renewal transaction. It applies in the same manner regardless of whether the License Owner is a Consumer or a Business License Owner and does not determine the notice, consent, or cancellation requirements described below, which instead depend on whether the License Owner is a Consumer.

14.3 Consumer Automatic-Renewal Requirements. If the License Owner is a Consumer and the Order Confirmation provides for automatic renewal, Schrifteria will, before enrolling the Consumer in automatic renewal, clearly and conspicuously disclose the automatic renewal terms and obtain the Consumer’s affirmative consent to automatic renewal separately from the Consumer’s acceptance of this Agreement. Schrifteria will retain verification of that consent for the later of three years or one year after the License terminates and will provide the Consumer with a retainable acknowledgment stating the renewal terms, cancellation policy, and cancellation method. Schrifteria will not include anything in the Agreement or checkout flow that interferes with, detracts from, or otherwise undermines the Consumer’s ability to give this consent.

If the License Owner is a Business License Owner, Schrifteria will follow the same disclosure and acknowledgment practice as a matter of consistent business practice, without representing that doing so is legally required for that License Owner. The record-retention requirement applicable to Consumer consent under the preceding paragraph does not apply to a Business License Owner.

14.4 Renewal Notice. Between 30 and 40 days before each annual renewal, whether renewal occurs by automatic charge or through a separate renewal transaction, Schrifteria will send each License Owner, whether a Consumer or a Business License Owner, a renewal notice by email or another medium required by applicable law and, where available, make the notice accessible through the License Owner’s customer account. The notice will identify the licensed product, renewal date, 12-month renewal term, exact renewal charge, applicable tier, expiration date if the License is cancelled or renewal is not completed, any promotional discount that will not continue upon renewal, a direct method for cancellation or non-renewal, Schrifteria contact information, and a link to the applicable terms. If the notice is sent electronically, it will include a link or other reasonably accessible electronic method that directs the License Owner to the cancellation process. The 30-to-40-day notice period applies to all License Owners regardless of license fee or the USD 2,000 threshold.

14.5 Consumer Annual Reminder and Cancellation. In addition to the renewal notice required by Section 14.4, if the License Owner is a Consumer enrolled in automatic renewal, Schrifteria will send an annual reminder using the same medium the Consumer used to sign up, or the medium the Consumer regularly uses to interact with Schrifteria, disclosing the product or service to which the automatic renewal applies, the frequency and amount of the charge, and the means to cancel. Schrifteria may satisfy the renewal notice and annual reminder requirements with a single combined communication, provided that the communication meets the timing requirement in Section 14.4 and includes all content required for both notices.

A Consumer who enrolled in automatic renewal online may cancel online until immediately before renewal is processed, without steps that obstruct or delay cancellation.

14.6 Additional Renewal Communications. Schrifteria may also contact any License Owner personally, including through a customer success representative or account manager, in addition to the notice required by Section 14.4, and may do so as a matter of business practice for License Owners at or above the USD 2,000 threshold. Any such personal outreach supplements and does not replace the required renewal notice. Schrifteria may also send an additional courtesy reminder closer to the renewal date. Personal or CRM communications do not replace any notice required by applicable law.

If the Order Confirmation provides for automatic renewal and the applicable license terms have not materially changed since the License Owner’s last acceptance, the License Owner’s failure to cancel before renewal is processed permits the License to renew for the next 12-month term on those previously accepted terms.

If renewal requires a separate renewal transaction under Section 14.2, the License does not renew unless the License Owner affirmatively completes that transaction. Failure to respond to a renewal notice, silence, or inaction does not constitute acceptance of renewal.

If the applicable license terms have materially changed since the License Owner’s last acceptance, renewal additionally requires the License Owner’s affirmative acceptance of the changed terms as provided in Section 20. Silence or inaction does not constitute acceptance of materially changed terms.

14.7 Termination for Material Breach; Cure. Except as provided in Sections 14.8 and 14.9, either party may terminate the applicable License for a material breach of this Agreement if the breaching party fails to cure the breach within 30 calendar days after receiving written notice describing the breach. If the breach is cured within that period, the License will continue in effect.

14.8 Immediate Suspension or Termination. Schrifteria may suspend or terminate the applicable License immediately, without prior notice or an opportunity to cure, if the License Owner commits a serious or willful breach for which continued use of the Font Software during a cure period would reasonably risk material harm to Schrifteria, the Font Software, or Schrifteria’s intellectual property rights. Such breaches include resale or distribution of the Font Software; unauthorized transfer of Font Software files to a person not permitted access under this Agreement; creation or distribution of a competing or derivative font in violation of Section 4 (General Restrictions); use of the Font Software in violation of Section 5 (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning); knowing and sustained concealment of a confirmed tier or Metric overage as described in Section 9; continuation of prohibited conduct after a direct demand to stop; or other conduct of a similarly serious or willful character.

14.9 Tier or Metric Overages. A tier or Metric overage, standing alone, does not constitute grounds for immediate suspension or termination under Section 14.8. Schrifteria will first address an overage through the upgrade-and-payment process set forth in Section 9 of these General Terms or the applicable Supplemental License Rules governing that overage (the “Applicable Overage Process”). If the License Owner fails to complete the Applicable Overage Process within the period it requires, Schrifteria may suspend or terminate the License as provided in the Applicable Overage Process and, if the failure also constitutes an uncured material breach, under Section 14.7. Conduct independently falling within Section 14.8 remains subject to that Section regardless of whether it also involves a tier or Metric overage.

14.10 Effect of Expiration or Termination. Upon expiration or termination of a License, all use authorized under that License must cease and all copies of the Font Software held under that License must be deleted, subject to any platform-specific wind-down provisions in the applicable Supplemental License Rules. Expiration or termination does not require destruction, recall, or cessation of use or distribution of fixed, non-editable outputs lawfully created and distributed before expiration or termination, provided that no Font Software is included in a form that permits extraction or further use. The Supplemental Logo License Rules govern the continuing use, if any, of a finished licensed logo after termination of a Logo License. Expiration or termination does not affect any rights or obligations accrued before the effective date of expiration or termination. Provisions concerning restrictions, ownership, accrued fees, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, limitation of liability, governing law, and any other provisions that by their nature are intended to survive will survive expiration or termination.

You must comply with all applicable U.S. and foreign export-control, economic-sanctions, and trade laws and regulations, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations and sanctions programs administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. You must not, directly or indirectly, export, re-export, release, or make the Font Software or related documentation available to, or accessible from, any jurisdiction, country, person, or entity to which or whom such activity is prohibited or restricted by applicable law, and you must obtain any required license or governmental authorization before engaging in a controlled transaction.

16.1 Business License Owners. If you are a Business License Owner, this Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of California. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of California, in each case located in the city of San Diego and County of San Diego, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding and waives any objection to venue in such courts.

16.2 Consumers. If you are a Consumer, this Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California to the same extent as provided in Section 16.1, and disputes are likewise resolved exclusively in the courts identified in Section 16.1, except that nothing in this Section deprives you of any protection of the law of your state or country of residence that cannot lawfully be waived by contract, requires you to waive a venue or forum that applicable law makes nonwaivable, or prevents you from bringing an individual claim in a court of competent jurisdiction, including small claims court, where applicable law permits or requires it.

16.3 Class Action Waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any proceeding to resolve a dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Font Software, whether brought by a Business License Owner or a Consumer, must be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff, claimant, or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The court may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. This waiver applies regardless of whether the underlying claim is brought under this Agreement, in tort, under statute, or otherwise. If a court determines that this waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy (and only that claim or remedy) may proceed on a class, collective, or representative basis in court, and the remainder of this Agreement, including Sections 16.1 and 16.2, will continue to apply. If you are a Consumer, this subsection does not waive any representative or class right that applicable law does not permit to be waived by contract.

The Font Software is a “commercial product” as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. § 12.212. Accordingly, if you are an agency of the U.S. Government or any contractor therefor, you only receive those rights with respect to the Font Software as are granted to all other end users under license, in accordance with (a) 48 C.F.R. § 227.7201 through 48 C.F.R. § 227.7204, with respect to the Department of Defense and its contractors, or (b) 48 C.F.R. § 12.212, with respect to all other U.S. Government licensees and their contractors.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, a claim arising from the Agreement must be commenced within one year after the claimant knew or reasonably should have known of the facts giving rise to it. This provision does not shorten a period that applicable law prohibits the parties from shortening.

Schrifteria’s collection and use of personal data in connection with the Agreement and the Font Software is governed by the Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into the Agreement by reference.

Collection and Use of Your Information.

You acknowledge that when you access or use the Site, Schrifteria may use automatic means, including cookies and similar technologies, to collect information about your device and your use of the Site. Schrifteria also collects personal information you provide when you place an order, such as your name, contact information, and payment-related details. All information Schrifteria collects through or in connection with the Site is subject to the Privacy Policy. By accessing or using the Site and providing information to or through it, you consent to Schrifteria’s collection, use, and disclosure of your information in compliance with the Privacy Policy.

The parties consent to electronic records, signatures, communications, and delivery of the Agreement. Any requirement in the Agreement that a person “sign” or provide a “signature,” including under the Exception for Trial Licenses in these General Terms and Sections 3, T4, and T6 of the Supplemental Trial License Rules, is satisfied by an electronic signature given in accordance with this Section 19. Before a Consumer located in the United States consents, Schrifteria will disclose any right or option to receive the record on paper, whether the consent applies to one transaction or identified categories of records, the procedures for withdrawing consent and updating contact information, and whether withdrawal will terminate electronic delivery or affect the transaction. Such a Consumer may request a paper copy, withdraw consent to electronic delivery, or update contact information by contacting Schrifteria at info@schrifteria.xyz or another notice address Schrifteria identifies on the Site. Withdrawal applies prospectively and does not affect previously accepted records. Access requires an internet-connected device, a current browser, a valid email account, and software capable of displaying and saving or printing PDF or web documents. Where required by law, electronic consent must be provided in a manner that reasonably demonstrates access to the electronic form used for the record.

Schrifteria may send contractual notices to the email or postal address in the Order Confirmation. You must keep that information current. Notice is effective when sent, except where applicable law requires another method.

For a perpetual License, the version of the Agreement accepted in connection with the purchase governs the scope of the License and will not be materially modified retroactively without the License Owner’s affirmative agreement, except to the extent a change is required by applicable law. Schrifteria may make nonmaterial administrative, clerical, formatting, contact-information, or clarifying changes that do not materially reduce the License Owner’s licensed rights, materially increase its obligations, or alter the price, liability allocation, remedies, or dispute-resolution terms.

For an annual License, a material change will not apply during a current paid term. At renewal, a material change will apply only after clear notice and affirmative acceptance where required, consistent with Section 14. If you do not accept a material change, Schrifteria may renew under the previously accepted terms or decline renewal and allow the existing License to expire without charging you.

After a licensed project has been publicly launched, Schrifteria may identify and display the public use in its Fonts in Use materials, website, social media, presentations, and portfolio. Schrifteria will not do so before an agreed launch date or while the use is subject to a confidentiality obligation or nondisclosure agreement known to Schrifteria.

22.1 Entire Agreement. The Agreement is the entire agreement concerning its subject and supersedes prior or contemporaneous communications. If there is a conflict among the documents comprising the Agreement, the Order Confirmation controls with respect to transaction-specific information; the applicable Supplemental License Rules control with respect to the scope, conditions, and restrictions of the applicable License; and these General Terms control in all other respects.
22.2 Assignment. You may not assign the Agreement without Schrifteria’s prior written consent. A change in the name or legal form of the same License Owner is not an assignment. A transfer to a different legal entity, including in connection with a sale of the License Owner or licensed brand, requires Schrifteria’s prior written approval, deletion of copies by the former owner, acceptance of the Agreement by the new owner, and any required tier adjustment. Any purported assignment, delegation, or transfer in violation of this Section 22.2 is void.

Schrifteria may freely assign or otherwise transfer all or any of its rights, or delegate or otherwise transfer all or any of its obligations or performance, under this Agreement without your consent. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

22.3 Failure to Exercise. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

22.4 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

SUPPLEMENTAL TRIAL LICENSE RULES

These Supplemental Trial License Rules (“These Rules”) govern evaluation-only use of trial Font Software and limited noncommercial student use.

These Rules form part of the Agreement only when the corresponding license type is identified in the Order Confirmation. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings stated in the General Terms. These Rules contain only provisions specific to this licensed use.

T1. Trial Purpose and Files

“Trial Font Software” means the version of the Font Software Schrifteria makes available for evaluation under these Rules, containing the full character set and functionality of the corresponding commercial version, including all static styles and variable fonts in the family that Schrifteria makes available for trial, with “TRIAL” added to the font name.

Schrifteria grants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable License to evaluate whether the Trial Font Software is suitable before purchasing a paid license and for the limited student uses stated below. No commercial, production, or public use is permitted except for the student use expressly described below.

T2. Permitted Evaluation Uses

The Trial Font Software may be used to create private concepts, internal evaluations, local prototypes, closed design files, password-protected staging websites, and internal test builds. A prototype may be shown privately to a client, for example, in a presentation, screen-share, or exported file, if the Font Software file itself is not transferred to the client and public access remains restricted.

Before production, public beta, publication, app-store distribution, removal of password protection, delivery of a final commercial work, or any other public or commercial launch, the License Owner must acquire every applicable paid license.

T3. Internal Employees and External Contractors

If the License Owner is an organization, any number of its internal employees may use the Trial Font Software for that organization’s evaluation. External contractors, designers, agencies, and freelancers may not receive the organization’s Trial Font Software. Each such person must independently obtain the Trial Font Software from Schrifteria and separately accept the Agreement.

T4. Student Use

A student age 18 or older may use the Trial Font Software for noncommercial coursework, a student portfolio, or a degree project, provided the work is not created for a paying client, sold, licensed, monetized, or used to promote a business. The work may be shown to instructors, displayed at student exhibitions, included in the student’s personal portfolio, and posted on the student’s social-media accounts. Where reasonably practicable, any public display must identify the typeface and Schrifteria. Any commercial or client use requires the appropriate paid license before release.

A student who is at least 13 but under 18 years old may be the License Owner of a Trial License and use the Trial Font Software for the same purposes, subject to “Trial Licenses for Minors” in the General Terms. The student must affirmatively accept the Agreement and agree to comply with its terms, and the student’s parent or legal guardian must separately affirmatively consent to the student’s acceptance and accept the Agreement on the student’s behalf. Both acceptances must be completed before the student may access or use the Trial Font Software.

The parent’s or legal guardian’s acceptance does not make the parent or legal guardian a License Owner or Authorized Person and does not grant the parent or legal guardian any independent right to access or use the Trial Font Software. The student is the sole License Owner under the Trial License.
After the student’s studies end, a completed academic project may remain indefinitely in the student’s personal portfolio and in prior publications. The project may not be further developed into a commercial brand or use, and no new materials may be created from it, without every applicable paid license.

T5. Prohibited Trial Uses

The Trial Font Software may not be used in a final commercial deliverable, public website, production application, open beta, paid or unpaid client launch, advertising campaign, product for sale, trademark filing, registered logo, or other production use. It may not be shared with a client or contractor, embedded in distributable files, or placed on a public server or in a public repository.

An Authorized Person may convert individual words or letters to outlines and modify those outlines solely within a private concept, including a proposed logo concept. An Authorized Person may not modify the font file, extract or recreate the full alphabet, create a derivative font, or transfer the outlines for production or public use without the applicable paid license.

T6. Storage, New Downloads, and Term

The Trial License begins when the Trial Font Software is made available to the License Owner and continues on a perpetual basis unless terminated for breach in accordance with Section 14 of the General Terms. The Trial Font Software may be kept on a device controlled by the License Owner or in closed cloud storage accessible only to the License Owner and, if the License Owner is an organization, its permitted internal employees. Public distribution and open links are prohibited.

To obtain Trial Font Software, the individual submitting the request must provide an email address and first and last name. The trial request must indicate whether the Trial License is requested for the individual’s own use or on behalf of an organization. If requested on behalf of an organization, the organization must be identified and will be the License Owner, and the individual submitting the request must be at least 18 years old and represents that the individual is authorized to accept the Agreement on the organization’s behalf. If requested solely for the individual’s own use and no organization is identified, the individual will be the License Owner, subject to the requirements below for individuals under 18 years old. Personal information collected in connection with the trial request is subject to the Privacy Policy.

The trial request must indicate whether the individual requesting the Trial License is under 18 years old. If the individual is at least 13 but under 18 years old, a Trial License may be requested only for the noncommercial student use permitted by Section T4. The individual will be the sole License Owner and must affirmatively accept the Agreement and agree to comply with its terms. The individual’s parent or legal guardian must separately affirmatively consent to the individual’s acceptance of the Agreement and accept the Agreement on the individual’s behalf, as required under “Trial Licenses for Minors” in the General Terms. Both acceptances must be completed before the individual may access or use the Trial Font Software.

The parent’s or legal guardian’s acceptance does not make the parent or legal guardian a License Owner or Authorized Person and does not grant the parent or legal guardian any independent right to access or use the Trial Font Software.

An individual under 18 years old may not request or accept a Trial License on behalf of an organization, regardless of the individual’s ownership, membership, position, or other interest in, or control over, the organization. An individual under 13 years old may not submit a trial request or access or use the Trial Font Software, and Schrifteria does not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 13 years old.

A completed trial request and the required acceptance or acceptances cover the Trial Font Software made available through that submission and constitute the Order Confirmation for purposes of the Agreement. Upon completion of the required acceptance or acceptances, the download process may make available either Schrifteria’s full collection of trial-eligible typefaces or only the specific font families selected in the trial request, as determined by Schrifteria.

To obtain a later trial release or make a new download, the individual submitting the request must submit the then-current trial form and affirmatively accept the then-current General Terms and Supplemental Trial License Rules and acknowledge receipt or review of the then-current Privacy Policy. If the License Owner is at least 13 but under 18 years old at the time of the new request, the parent or legal guardian must also provide the separate consent and acceptance required for a minor under this Section T6 and “Trial Licenses for Minors” in the General Terms. Marketing consent must be separate and optional.

T7. Trial Support

The Trial Font Software is provided as is. THE LIMITED WARRANTY IN SECTION 10 OF THE GENERAL TERMS DOES NOT APPLY TO THE TRIAL FONT SOFTWARE, AND SCHRIFTERIA DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT TO THE TRIAL FONT SOFTWARE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Schrifteria may accept reports of confirmed defects but does not promise an individual support service, a correction deadline, or compatibility with every application or environment.

SUPPLEMENTAL DESKTOP LICENSE RULES

These Supplemental Desktop License Rules (“These Rules”) govern installation and desktop production use of Font Software.

These Rules form part of the Agreement only when the corresponding license type is identified in the Order Confirmation. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings stated in the General Terms. These Rules contain only provisions specific to this licensed use.

D1. Desktop License Scope

Schrifteria grants the License Owner a worldwide License to install and use the supplied desktop Font Software, limited to the number of Authorized Persons counted toward the purchased tier stated in the Order Confirmation. The Desktop License is measured by the number of Authorized Persons with access to the Font Software, not by devices. Each Authorized Person may install the Font Software on multiple devices used by that person for the License Owner’s work.

If the License Owner is an individual, the License Owner counts toward the purchased tier as one Authorized Person. Being the License Owner does not entitle that individual to a seat in addition to the purchased tier. An employee or contractor who directly accesses the Font Software to perform work solely for the License Owner also counts toward the purchased tier, including access through a font manager, secure internal server, or cloud workspace. Section D6 of These Rules states which other Authorized Persons do not count toward the purchased tier. Section D5 of These Rules states which infrastructure does not count toward the purchased tier.

D2. Permitted Desktop Uses

Authorized Persons may use the Font Software to create printed materials, books, magazines, corporate documents and presentations, publications, packaging, signage, merchandise, static images, GIFs, rendered digital advertising, social-media graphics, and rendered video, film, titles, or captions. There is no limit on the number or circulation of finished merchandise bearing a fixed typographic design. The Desktop License also permits an unlimited number and circulation of non-editable electronic documents and protected eBooks or electronic publications where the Font Software is used only to display finished text and cannot be extracted.

A finished static image, rendered video, outlined graphic, or securely embedded non-editable document may be delivered or distributed without transferring the Font Software. The merchandise permission is limited to a fixed finished design and does not cover any set of individual letters, characters, or symbols that a customer can arrange or combine to form words or other combinations, editable templates, personalization, or any product or service that lets a customer enter or generate text. Live web text, HTML5 advertising that loads a webfont, applications, SaaS products, and editable end-user templates are not Desktop uses.

D3. Logos and Outlined Artwork

A Desktop License permits exploratory logo concepts and internal design work. A Logo License is required at the earliest of: public launch of the mark, delivery of the selected or final mark to the brand owner, any trademark filing, or other commercial use of the mark. Where permitted, an Authorized Person may convert text to outlines and modify the resulting vector artwork, but may not modify the Font Software itself.

D4. Document Embedding

Authorized Persons may edit internal Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and similar documents. A PDF, ePub, presentation, or similar electronic document may be sent to an unlicensed recipient only when the document permits viewing and printing but does not permit that recipient to edit text using the Font Software, and when the Font Software is subset and protected against extraction. Editable embedding for unlicensed recipients, mass template distribution, personalization, and production-server document or image generation require custom terms.

D5. Internal Servers and Design Applications

The Font Software may be stored on a secure internal font server or uploaded to a closed cloud design workspace used by Authorized Persons, provided the License Owner controls access, the number of Authorized Persons able to access the files does not exceed the purchased tier, and the service prevents unauthorized access and extraction. The server itself is not counted toward the purchased tier.

The Font Software may not be placed in a shared platform library, public template, or workspace accessible to unlicensed persons.

D6. Contractors, Printers, and Service Bureaus

A contractor with direct Font Software access counts toward the purchased tier and may use the files solely for the License Owner’s work. A contractor may instead use a seat under its own Desktop License.

Notwithstanding Section 3 of the General Terms, a commercial printer, prepress provider, or service bureau does not count toward the purchased tier and may receive a temporary copy solely when technically necessary to reproduce a particular licensed output and a protected PDF or outlined file is insufficient, provided that it agrees in writing not to design with, retain, disclose, distribute, or reuse the Font Software and to delete all copies immediately after completing the work.

An agency may use its own Desktop License for an unlimited number of client projects and may deliver fixed, non-editable outputs to those clients. A client may reproduce the particular finished materials delivered to it but receives neither the Font Software nor the right to create new materials. If an agency purchases a license for a client, the client must be identified as the License Owner from the outset; the agency may not later transfer its own license to the client.

D7. Backup Copy

The License Owner may keep secure archival backup copies in closed local or cloud storage accessible only to Authorized Persons. A backup may not be placed in a public repository or made available through an open link and may be used only to restore a lawfully installed copy.

D8. Term

Unless the Order Confirmation states otherwise, a Desktop License is perpetual, subject to the purchased tier and termination provisions in the General Terms.

D9. Tier Overages.

If, at any time, the number of Authorized Persons with access to the Font Software exceeds the purchased tier, Schrifteria will notify the License Owner of the excess and the applicable higher tier. Within 30 calendar days after notice, the License Owner must either (a) reduce the number of Authorized Persons with access to no more than the purchased tier, or (b) purchase the applicable higher tier. The additional fee for a higher tier is the positive difference between the fee previously paid for the existing tier and Schrifteria’s then-current fee for the applicable higher tier. After payment, the License continues at the higher tier on the same term (perpetual or annual, as applicable). A tier overage alone is not grounds for immediate suspension or termination under Section 14.8 of the General Terms, but failure to complete the process required by this Section within the 30-day period may result in suspension or termination after further notice under Section 14.7, and knowing, sustained concealment of a confirmed overage, as distinct from good-faith, undetected growth, is a willful breach under Section 14.8 of the General Terms.

SUPPLEMENTAL WEB LICENSE RULES

These Supplemental Web License Rules (“These Rules”) govern live webfont use on websites, HTML email, and dynamic web advertising.

These Rules form part of the Agreement only when the corresponding license type is identified in the Order Confirmation. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings stated in the General Terms. These Rules contain only provisions specific to this licensed use.

W1. Web License Scope

Schrifteria grants the License Owner a worldwide License during the term stated in the Order Confirmation to self-host and embed only the webfont files supplied by Schrifteria, including WOFF and WOFF2 files, to display live text on an unlimited number of public or internal informational websites for one licensed brand owned by one License Owner. Covered sites may include corporate sites, ecommerce sites, blogs, media sites, landing pages, regional domains, subdomains, campaign sites, intranets, and view-only informational dashboards. All covered uses are aggregated for the purposes of calculating the Metric.

A separate independent brand, affiliate, or other person or legal entity requires a separate Web License or custom terms.

W2. Additional Covered Uses

The Web License also permits live webfont text in HTML email sent for the licensed brand, with each active subscriber counted once per month regardless of message volume; dynamic HTML5 advertising that loads the webfont, with each impression counted; ordinary text entry in search, registration, checkout, feedback, reviews, comments, and similar forms where the site controls the design; user-submitted text displayed in a predetermined site design, provided the user does not receive a separately designed output or file; and password-protected or internal informational sites and view-only dashboards.

Static images, GIFs, and rendered video are governed by the Supplemental Desktop License Rules rather than these Rules.

W3. Excluded Interactive and Application Uses

The Web License does not cover a standalone software application, browser-based application, SaaS product, operational system, or interactive product in which users perform substantive tasks. Those uses require an App License. A marketing site and a separate web application require both license types.

For purposes of these Rules, ordinary website functions such as search, registration, account access, checkout, feedback, reviews, comments, and viewing personalized or account-specific information do not by themselves make a website an App License use. A browser-based product requires an App License when its primary function is to enable users to perform substantive tasks through software functionality rather than principally to view or interact with website content.

The Web License does not permit editors, generators, personalization services, or authoring or export tools that allow an end user to select type settings or export an image, PDF, product, template, or other designed output, in either case where doing so uses the Font Software, produces an output that embeds the Font Software, or produces an output that contains text rendered using the Font Software. Those uses require custom terms.

An editor, generator, personalization service, or export tool does not require custom terms merely because the website’s design or interface uses or displays the Font Software.

W4. Hosting, Platforms, and Developers

The webfont may be hosted on the License Owner’s server or CDN or within the License Owner’s closed project on a third-party platform, solely to serve covered sites. The platform receives no right to use the webfont for other customers, templates, or a shared library. The License Owner must use reasonable protections against public download, hotlinking, re-serving, and extraction.

An Authorized Person who is an agency or developer may receive access solely to build or maintain covered sites and must delete all copies when its work ends.

W5. Subsetting and File Integrity

The License Owner may subset an official webfont solely by removing unused characters to reduce file size. It must not alter glyph outlines, metrics, kerning, OpenType features, names, metadata, or add characters. The subset remains Font Software under the Agreement. Schrifteria does not warrant or support a modified subset. Desktop font files may not be converted into webfont formats.

W6. Aggregate Monthly Web Volume

The purchased Web tier is based on Aggregate Monthly Web Volume, calculated for each month as the sum of: (a) pageviews on covered sites that load the Font Software; (b) active subscribers to whom covered HTML email using the Font Software is sent; and (c) impressions of covered dynamic advertising that loads the Font Software.

Each component is measured as the average over three consecutive calendar months. For an existing project, the initial tier is selected using the latest three complete months; for a new project, it is selected using a reasonable good-faith forecast. A single seasonal or viral spike does not by itself require an upgrade unless the three-consecutive-month average exceeds the tier.

W7. Term and Expiration

The Order Confirmation will state whether the Web License is annual or perpetual. An annual Web License is subject to the renewal procedure in the General Terms. A perpetual Web License continues unless terminated for breach, but the purchased tier, one-brand, one-License-Owner, and other scope limitations continue to apply, including the tier-adjustment procedure in Section 9 of the General Terms.

When an annual Web License expires without renewal, the License Owner and Authorized Persons must immediately stop serving the Font Software and remove all copies from covered sites, servers, platforms, advertising packages, email systems, and CDNs. There is no post-expiration grace period.

SUPPLEMENTAL APP LICENSE RULES

These Supplemental App License Rules (“These Rules”) govern secure embedding of Font Software in one software product or game.

These Rules form part of the Agreement only when the corresponding license type is identified in the Order Confirmation. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings stated in the General Terms. These Rules contain only provisions specific to this licensed use.

A1. App License Scope

Schrifteria grants the License Owner a worldwide License during the term stated in the Order Confirmation to securely embed the Font Software in one public or internal software product or game identified in the Order Confirmation so that the Font Software is used only to display text within that product and is not made available as a separate file.

The license covers iOS, Android, browser-based, desktop, and other platform versions that are continuations of the same product and share functional identity. A rebrand alone does not create a new product if the former product does not continue separately.

A2. Covered and Separate Products

A standalone browser application or SaaS product is an App License use even if it cannot be downloaded. A separate marketing or informational website using live webfont text requires a Web License. Each separate app, game, or independently marketed product requires its own App License unless custom terms expressly provide otherwise.

Updates, major versions, redesigns, renaming, and regional or localized versions remain covered when they are continuations of the same product, have functional identity, and are owned by the same License Owner. White-label versions and versions for independent clients require custom terms. One named game is covered across all supported platforms.

A3. Secure Embedding

The License Owner may embed only the files and formats supplied or expressly approved by Schrifteria and must use reasonable technical measures appropriate to the platform to prevent extraction and use outside the licensed product. The Font Software may not be exposed through an API, shared resource, system-font installation, download, export, template library, or other mechanism that permits access or reuse.

The License Owner may subset an official App file solely by removing unused characters or languages to reduce application size. It must not alter glyph outlines, metrics, kerning, features, names, or metadata or add characters. The subset remains Font Software, and Schrifteria does not warrant or support the modified subset.

A4. End-User Text and Authoring

End users may enter ordinary text that is displayed within the product’s fixed interface. The App License does not permit an editor, generator, personalization feature, or other functionality allowing end users to select type settings or create and export designed text, images, PDFs, products, templates, or other outputs using the Font Software. Those features require custom terms.

A5. Development Access

Authorized Persons may access the Font Software solely as reasonably necessary to develop, test, distribute, or maintain the licensed product. Each Authorized Person who is a contractor must be bound by written confidentiality and use restrictions and must delete all copies after its work ends. The source code for the product may be open source only if the Font Software and every credential, link, or means of accessing it remain excluded from the public repository and are added solely within a closed build environment.

A6. Monthly Active Users

The purchased App tier is based on total monthly active users (“MAU”) across all platform versions of the licensed product, averaged over three consecutive calendar months. An active user is a unique end user who accesses or uses a version of the product during the month, measured using the License Owner’s ordinary analytics applied consistently and without double-counting the same identifiable user across versions where reasonably practicable.

For a new product, the initial tier is based on a reasonable good-faith forecast. A single seasonal or viral spike does not by itself require an upgrade unless the three-month average exceeds the tier.

A7. Excluded Uses and Products

The App License covers use of the Font Software in the user interface of the licensed product.

It does not cover:

• server-side automatic generation of a PDF, image, card, report, personalized good, or other output if the generation process uses the Font Software, the output embeds the Font Software, or the output contains text rendered using the Font Software;
• use in firmware, an operating system, a system interface, or as part of a device; or
• use in catalogs, specimen apps, keyboards, font apps, libraries, subscriptions, font menus, or other products or services that install, distribute, or offer the Font Software as a feature.

Those uses require custom terms.

Server-side generation is not excluded merely because the licensed product’s user interface uses or displays the Font Software.

An application for a phone, tablet, computer, smart TV, watch, vehicle, or similar platform may be covered if it is a version of the same licensed product. Use of the Font Software in the product’s logo requires any separate Logo License designated by Schrifteria. No public attribution is required for an ordinary commercial App License.

A8. Ownership Transfer

Notwithstanding Section 22.2 of the General Terms, this Section A8 governs any transfer of an App License associated with the sale or transfer of the licensed product. Section 22.2 remains in effect except as expressly modified by this Section A8. The App License does not transfer automatically with the licensed product. The current and proposed new owners must notify Schrifteria and obtain its prior written approval. The current owner must delete all copies, the new owner must accept the Agreement, and any required tier adjustment must be completed.

A9. Term and Expiration

The Order Confirmation will state whether the App License is annual or perpetual. An annual App License is subject to the renewal procedure in the General Terms. A perpetual App License continues unless terminated for breach, but the purchased product and tier limitations continue to apply, including the tier-adjustment procedure in Section 9 of the General Terms.

When an annual App License expires without renewal, the License Owner must immediately stop developing and newly distributing versions that contain the Font Software. Within 30 calendar days, it must remove the Font Software from its code base, submit a compliant update to every distribution channel, and remove versions containing the Font Software from servers, app stores, download channels, and other distribution systems to the extent within its control.

Termination of an App License for breach does not require the License Owner to disable or remove copies of the licensed product that were lawfully distributed to end users before termination. Those copies may continue to operate on end-user devices. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Schrifteria’s termination notice states that the termination is based on a willful or serious breach under Section 14.8 of the General Terms, Schrifteria may require the License Owner to use commercially reasonable efforts to disable those copies or remove them from end-user devices and distribution channels, to the extent technically feasible.

After termination or expiration of the App License, the License Owner may not distribute new copies or updates of the product containing the Font Software, or make the product newly available for download, unless and until it obtains a new App License.

SUPPLEMENTAL LOGO LICENSE RULES

These Supplemental Logo License Rules (“These Rules”) govern use of a licensed typeface design in one logo or visual identity.

These Rules form part of the Agreement only when the corresponding license type is identified in the Order Confirmation. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings stated in the General Terms. These Rules contain only provisions specific to this licensed use.

L1. Logo License Scope and Term

Schrifteria grants the License Owner a worldwide, perpetual License to use the design of each Font Software product identified in the Order Confirmation in one logo or visual identity for one named brand, product, service, event, or project. The licensed identity and brand must be identified in the Order Confirmation or provided to Schrifteria no later than the earliest of delivery of the selected or final mark to the brand owner, any trademark filing or other commercial use, or public launch. A project subject to a nondisclosure obligation may be identified as “Confidential” or “To Be Confirmed” until public launch.

The Logo License belongs to the owner or ultimate beneficiary of the licensed brand. An agency, designer, or other payer may acquire it for that owner only if the owner is identified as the License Owner from the outset. A founder may acquire the License for a new business before formation. After formation, Schrifteria will reissue the License without an additional license fee to the resulting entity for the same brand and identity, provided that the resulting entity accepts the Agreement and the founder permanently deletes any copies that the founder is no longer authorized to retain. The reissuance described in this paragraph is permitted notwithstanding Section 22.2 of the General Terms and does not require a new Logo License or transfer fee.

L2. One Licensed Identity

One Logo License covers one identity for one brand. It includes horizontal, vertical, compact, monochrome, icon, and animated versions, versions with changing taglines or descriptors, and language or writing-system versions, provided all are variants of the same identity for the same brand.

Each independent brand, product, service, event, or temporary project requires a separate Logo License. Each separate Font Software product used in the identity also requires a separate Logo License, even if the products are combined in one logo. The number of concepts or internal design iterations considered before the final identity is selected does not affect the number of licenses.

L3. Desktop License Required for Font Software Access

The Logo License does not grant any right to install, open, or otherwise directly access the Font Software. Any Authorized Person who installs or directly accesses the Font Software to create, revise, produce, or maintain the licensed logo, including the outline modifications described in Section L5, must be covered by a Desktop License, whether the License Owner’s own Desktop License or the Desktop License of an agency, designer, or other service provider engaged to produce the logo. Section D3 of the Supplemental Desktop License Rules governs exploratory logo concepts and internal design work performed under a Desktop License before a Logo License is obtained.

The Logo License grants only the rights described in Sections L4, L5, and L7 to use, reproduce, revise, and display the finished licensed logo. It does not, by itself, authorize any person to install or use the Font Software.

L4. Permitted Use of the Finished Logo

The License Owner may reproduce and display the finished licensed logo without media, territory, quantity, or circulation limits, including on websites, applications, social media, advertising, video, packaging, merchandise, signage, stationery, and other physical or digital media.

Business partners, distributors, retailers, manufacturers, printers, and other service providers may receive and reproduce only the finished logo for the License Owner’s authorized purposes without obtaining their own Logo License, provided they do not receive the Font Software. The finished logo may be placed as a locked, non-editable element in templates when no Font Software is embedded or uploaded and users cannot alter the typography.

The logo may be technically adapted for production and different media, including scaling, color conversion, animation, and other changes that do not materially change its identity.

L5. Logo Design Modifications

An Authorized Person covered by a Desktop License under Section L3 may use the Font Software to convert text to outlines and modify individual letterforms solely to create or revise the licensed logo. Once the text or letterforms have been converted to outlines, any Authorized Person may revise, adapt, or produce the resulting outlined artwork for the licensed logo without needing to be covered by a Desktop License, provided that person does not install, open, or otherwise access the Font Software.

The License also permits (a) letterforms to be manually redrawn or reproduced from the design of the licensed typeface and (b) an unchanged individual letter to be used as the logo or principal mark, provided, in each case, that any access to the Font Software used to create or reproduce the letterform is by a person covered by a Desktop License under Section L3.

The Font Software itself may not be modified. An ornamental graphic supplied within the Font Software may not be used unchanged as a standalone or dominant mark. It may be used as a secondary element, and a substantially transformed use may be permitted if it remains part of the licensed identity; uncertain or complex uses require Schrifteria’s written approval.

L6. Excluded Typography and Uses

The Logo License covers only the finished licensed identity. It does not authorize live text, slogans, headings, layouts, marketing typography, website text, application interfaces, or other typography outside that fixed identity. Those uses require the applicable Desktop, Web, App, or custom terms.

The Logo License does not authorize use of the Font Software in an editable template, end-user authoring tool, font library, or any other product or service that permits a third party to create new typography.

L7. Trademark Filings and No Assurance of Protection

The License Owner may apply to register and may register the licensed logo as a trademark, service mark, design mark, or other source identifier without additional approval or license fees from Schrifteria.

Permission under this License to use or register the licensed identity as a trademark does not constitute a representation or warranty that the identity is unique, registrable, available for use, noninfringing, protectable, or entitled to trademark or other legal protection. The License Owner is responsible for clearance, filing, prosecution, maintenance, and enforcement of its rights in the finished logo.

L8. Rights in the Finished Work and Portfolio Use

These Rules address only Schrifteria’s rights in the Font Software and the License Owner’s permission to use the typeface design in the licensed logo. They do not determine ownership of the finished artwork or allocate rights between the License Owner and its designer, agency, employees, or contractors; those matters must be addressed in their separate agreements.

After public launch, a designer or agency may display the finished logo in its portfolio with the License Owner’s permission and attribution identifying the typeface and Schrifteria. The License Owner is not required to provide public attribution in its ordinary use of the logo.

L9. Company-Size Tier

The initial Logo License tier is determined on the purchase date by the size of the License Owner or, where another person or entity owns the licensed brand, the brand owner. For an organization, size includes full-time, part-time, and temporary employees and individual contractors who regularly function as members of the owner’s team. For an individual License Owner that is not an organization, the individual counts as one person, together with any employees and qualifying contractors. The applicable tier and fee are stated in the Order Confirmation.

Ordinary growth after purchase does not, by itself, require a tier change, additional payment, or a new Logo License.

L10. Redesigns and Later Growth

The License Owner may redesign or materially revise the same identity without purchasing a new Logo License if the same brand, the same License Owner, and the same licensed Font Software product remain involved. Ordinary format variants and technical adaptations do not trigger a tier review.

At the time of a later rebranding or material redesign, company size will be measured again. If the License Owner has moved into a higher Logo License tier, it must pay the positive difference between the fee previously paid for the Logo License and Schrifteria’s then-current fee for the applicable higher tier at the time of the rebranding or material redesign. If it remains in the same tier, no additional payment is required. After any required difference is paid, the existing perpetual Logo License continues; a new license is not required.

L11. Name Changes, Transfers, and Mergers

A change in the name or legal form of the same License Owner does not require a new Logo License. A transfer of the brand or identity to a different legal entity, including through a sale or merger, is not automatic and requires Schrifteria’s prior written approval under the General Terms. Ordinary growth of the same License Owner is not a transfer.

L12. Cancelled and Unused Projects

Subject to Section 8 of the General Terms, a Logo License purchased for a specific brand or project remains tied to that licensed identity, even if the project is canceled or the logo is never launched. The Agreement provides no automatic refund, credit, substitution, or transfer to another brand. Schrifteria may, at its discretion, offer a replacement or other accommodation, but doing so creates no obligation or precedent.

L13. Effect of Termination for Breach

Upon termination of the Logo License for breach:
a) the License Owner’s right to use the Font Software to create, revise, or materially redesign the licensed identity terminates;
b) the License Owner is not required to cease use of the finished logo lawfully created under the Logo License before termination unless Schrifteria’s termination notice expressly states otherwise based on willful infringement or unauthorized use of the Font Software or typeface design; and
c) nothing in this Section L13 limits Schrifteria’s remedies for willful infringement, unauthorized use, or other conduct falling within Section 14.8 of the General Terms.
