License Agreement

This license agreement (“Agreement”) is between you, the purchaser of stock photos via the BodyLiberationPhotos.com website (“you”) and Lindley Ashline doing business as Body Liberation Photos (“Body Liberation Photos”).

This Agreement is a binding legal contract; please review it in full. By purchasing a license to a stock photo via Body Liberation Photos (the “License”) on the website, you expressly agree to be bound, without modification, to this Agreement. If you do not agree to be bound to this Agreement, you cannot purchase the License.

If you are purchasing the License on behalf of an organization, you warrant that you are authorized to bind that organization to legal agreements, and as such, that organization accepts this Agreement, and all the terms of this Agreement apply to that organization.

If you are enrolling in a subscription to purchase credits, with recurring monthly payments, Body Liberation Photos may amend this Agreement at any time by sending you a revised version at the email address you provide us, and you automatically become bound by the latest version of the Agreement unless you withdraw from the subscription. You have an affirmative duty to notify us of any changes to your email address, and to review any changes to the Agreement.

This Agreement was last modified on February 5, 2019.

Licenses. Body Liberation Photos offers two types of licenses: Personal Licenses and Commercial Licenses. Any downloadable purchases are made under a commercial license. Any tangible goods purchases (e.g., prints, coffee mugs) are made under a personal license.

Personal License. You receive a non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, non-sub-licensable, perpetual, universe-wide license to use, reproduce, modify, and distribute the copyrighted Content and to incorporate the copyrighted Content in whole and in part into derivative works for sale, only for non-commercial, personal use (as defined below), with the below restrictions.

Non-Commercial, Personal Use is defined as use that is not advertising, commercial, promotional, marketing, affiliate-related, or in any way related to a business or other commercial enterprise. Personal use may include but is not limited to use of Licensed Content on a personal, non-commercial blog or a personal social media account.

Commercial License. You receive a non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, non-sub-licensable, perpetual, universe-wide license to use, reproduce, modify, and distribute the copyrighted Content and to incorporate the copyrighted Content in whole and in part into derivative works for sale, with the below restrictions.

Restricted Uses. You are prohibited from using the Licensed Content:

• For or to illustrate negative or critical body messaging, diets or “lifestyle changes,” health warnings, or intentional weight loss in any form.
• In any illegal, defamatory, or hate-speech manner or association.
• In association with or on a dating website or conversion therapy website.
• For redistribution or resale as a stand-alone file, as a part of a group of photography files (such as on a stock-photo website), or as part of a template (such as a website theme template).
• In a trademark, service mark, or logo.

Any violation of the above Restricted Uses is a material breach of this Agreement.

Payments. You may purchase a license for Content via a one-time, flat fee photo credit, or via a recurring monthly subscription. By submitting the payment form, you agree to pay Body Liberation Photos a flat-fee or a monthly subscription fee using an automatic billing system (currently PayPal and via SmugMug) to purchase credits that may be used in exchanged for the License. You agree that Body Liberation Photos may charge your credit card (current PayPal via Patreon) automatically each month on your subscription renewal date (if applicable) until you cancel. Overdue amounts, including bounced payments or chargebacks, will be assessed a late payment charge at a monthly rate of 1.5% or the maximum provided by law, whichever is less. You understand that if a payment is late, charged-back, or declined for any reason, you will no longer have access to your subscription until the late payment is rectified. Body Liberation Photos will have the right to recover expenses including collection costs and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in the collection of overdue amounts. You understand and agree that you are responsible for the payment even if you choose not to utilize your subscription credits in a month.

Term. This Agreement begins when you purchase a License and shall continue until the Agreement is terminated under this section. You can terminate this Agreement by stopping use of all licensed Content and by destroying all copies of the licensed Content. If you materially breach this Agreement, Body Liberation Photos may terminate this Agreement upon five (5) days written notice, unless the breach is cured within the notice period; upon termination for material breach all licenses are immediately terminated, without refund. You may cancel future automatic subscription payments with three (3) days’ written notice before the next automatic payment date; however, that cancellation does not terminate this Agreement.

No Waiver. The terms of this Agreement cannot be waived or modified except by an express agreement in writing signed by all the parties.

No Assignment. You may not assign this Agreement to any other party without Body Liberation Photos’ written consent. The password and login information that is assigned to you must be kept confidential, may only be used by you personally, and may not be shared, given, rented, or assigned to any other person or entity. Any violation of this term is a material breach of this Agreement.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter contained in this Agreement.
