YOUR AGREEMENT WITH US
----------------------------------------
Thinkstock End User License Agreement
This is a legal agreement between you and Thinkstock LLC, hereinafter referred to as Thinkstock. Please read and understand this entire agreement before you license or download any content from our web site(s), or any other storage or transmission media on which we may deliver our content. If you do not agree to the following terms, please do not utilize the content provided.
Content is defined as a single image, image(s), composite images, motion sequence, digital animation, film footage, digital footage, digital video, any other visual representation, or audio clips regardless of whether the content is obtained via a download from this site as a comp, licensed content or delivered via any storage media that is now known or may become known in the future. The term "comp", as used in this licensing agreement, means a sample of a design or communication project only for internal use or for presentation to a client of an idea. Our content may not be displayed beyond comp use without paying for a license.
This agreement affects you as an individual as well as your employer if you are licensing any content on behalf of your company. If you leave the company that licensed the content, the company may continue to make use of the content pursuant to this agreement. You, however, as an individual, may not make a copy or transfer the content to a new place of employment or to your own company.
Permitted Usage of Comp Images
Any low-resolution comping content, placed here for visual reference only, may be downloaded off this web site or other media provided the chosen content is used only for layouts and comps (if you intend to license the content). Comp content may also be included in non-commercial personal projects for portfolio use only. Specifically, our content may not be used as an example for another artist, film or video producer or illustrator to recreate our content in substantially the same manner. No comp content may be placed on a server for public distribution or published in any way except for presentation to clients.
Permitted Usage of licensed images
You may publish any licensed content on our web site or media, pursuant to the payment and agreement contained herein for use including brochures, ads, billboards, CD covers, book covers, graphic design, internal presentations, Internet, intranet, extranet, television, multimedia, film and video projects. The content may be licensed by only one company or individual and may not be resold, or transferred, to any other company or individual. Any content may be used for multiple clients or projects providing the same design firm or agency is creating all the work. Without a further resale license, you cannot create objects, where the image is the primary element, for resale in production runs of greater than 10,000. This includes postcards, greeting cards, posters, mousepads, premium items and T-shirts. A resale license is easy to obtain with a phone call or e-mail and a brief description of your project.
Furthermore, the content may be served over a network or placed on a CD or DVD jukebox provided the maximum number of users does not exceed 10 people within the same company at the same location. If you require additional users, please e-mail or call us for a simple upgrade license.
Restricted usage
You cannot resell the content or any modification of the content directly. Without a further resale license, you cannot create objects based on the value of the content for resale in production runs of greater than 10,000. This includes postcards, greeting cards, posters, mousepads, premium items and T-shirts. A resale license is easy to obtain with a phone call (1-888-646-1606) or e-mail (thinkinfo@thinkstock.com) and a brief description of your project.
You may not lease, license or sub-license the content as the end product when the content is not included in a design project.
You agree not to use any content in a defamatory manner or context, for any pornographic or obscene use, or in conjunction with any other materials that may be deemed to be pornographic or defamatory, either by changing it or by any accompanying text. You agree to hold Thinkstock harmless from any and all claims and expenses arising from the use of any content. If you utilize any content prior to paying our invoice, we are relieved of any claim concerning the use or publication of the content since it was published without permission. We require that advance written permission be provided for use of any content for sensitive subjects including but not limited to contraception, matters of a sexual nature, substance abuse, domestic abuse, alcohol, tobacco, AIDS, cancer and other serious physical or mental ailments. Thinkstock reserves the right not to permit reproduction of any content for any reason whatsoever.
Thinkstock gives no rights or warranties with respect to the use of names, trademarks, logos, registered or copyrighted designs or works of art depicted in any content, and you must satisfy yourself that all necessary rights, model releases, consents or permissions as may be required for reproduction are secured.
Copyright of images
The digital image files on our web site, or media, are copyrighted and protected by the intellectual property laws of the United States and the Berne Convention. The usage rights for any final production must be purchased and payment received prior to publication. The use of content is licensed, not sold, and the content remains the sole and exclusive property of Thinkstock or the copyright holder. You agree not to make, authorize or permit any use of any content, except for comp purposes, until usage rights have been obtained and payment received. Image use without prior payment is a copyright violation.
Unauthorized use
Because it is difficult to determine damages resulting from unauthorized usage, in the event that you utilize any content other than for the allowable uses or fail to make payment prior to publication, we agree to forego our right to sue you for copyright infringement if you agree to pay, as liquidated damages, a sum equal to four (4) times the normal price we would have charged for such unauthorized use within ten (10) days of our billing such fee. If you fail to make such payment in a timely manner, this liquidated damage provision shall be void and we shall have the right to sue for copyright infringement, for which we will not accept less than ten (10) times the normal license fee plus attorney's fees and all associated costs.
Copyright protection
Each reproduction of any content must bear a credit line "⌐Thinkstock" or the work in which the content appears must be copyright protected. Any editorial use of the content must bear the credit line "⌐Thinkstock." You agree to provide statutory copyright protection of the content by registering the work you created or the work in which the content appears in a timely manner, and such copyright shall be immediately assigned to Thinkstock upon request and without charge.
Payment terms
No rights are granted until full payment for the content is received. Payment may be made on this web site with a valid credit card or through approved credit, in which case a monthly invoice will be issued. Any disputes concerning the invoice must be submitted in writing within five (5) days of the invoice date, or you shall be deemed to have accepted this invoice as issued. This invoice must be paid on the sooner of ten (10) days of its net due date, without any discounts, or prior to the publication of any content. You agree to pay Thinkstock a service charge of 2% per month on any unpaid balance.
Arbitration
A material part of our policies is this agreement to arbitrate any disputes. Any and all disputes relating to this Agreement, with the exception of copyright, including its validity, interpretation, performance, breach or other matter shall be settled by arbitration in North Carolina pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon any award rendered may be entered in the highest court having jurisdiction. The Laws of the State of North Carolina shall govern the interpretation of this Agreement. You agree the arbitrators have full authority to award costs of the arbitration including legal fees, plus legal interest on any award.
Legal costs and jurisdiction
In the event that either a court of competent jurisdiction directs us to go to court, or the matter involves copyright, you agree to fully reimburse Thinkstock for its reasonable legal fees and disbursements if Thinkstock is successful in the suit.
No waiver, complete agreement
The terms set forth in this policy represent our entire agreement concerning the delivery of any content to you, your review and usage thereof. All prior understandings or representations, whether oral or written, based on "industry custom" or past dealings, are hereby merged in this Agreement. No terms or conditions may be added unless made in writing and signed by both of us. No action of ours, other than an express written waiver, may be construed as a waiver of any part of this Agreement, and no employee is authorized to waive it orally. In the event we waive any specific part of this Agreement, it does not mean we waive any other part.
UCC
The above terms are governed by Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code.
