Licenses

The 80% of questions about Cubebrush licenses. The full legal text follows below.

Some Products contain existing intellectual-property (IP) elements - recognisable brands, real products, trademarks, etc. These Products may only be used in a personal/educational or editorial manner, relating to events that are newsworthy or of public interest. Editorial restrictions:

• Not for resale items (e.g., on a t-shirt, in a published video game, on a 3D-printed product).
• Not for billboard, trade-show, or exhibit displays.
• Not in any defamatory, libellous, or otherwise unlawful manner - directly or in context.
• Not incorporated into a logo, trademark, or service mark.
• Not for any commercial, non-news-related purpose.

3.1 · What you may do.

You may use a purchased Product in a new End Product, provided the End Product meets the requirements below. You may modify or manipulate the Product, or incorporate it into other content to make a derivative work. The Store Owner retains all right, title, and ownership in the Products; the resulting derivative work is subject to these Basic License terms.

3.2 · End Product requirements.

• Significantly different than the original Product, requiring time, effort, and skill to produce.
• Not used or sold in a way that is directly competitive with the original Product you purchased.
• Not redistributing the original Product to third parties in a manner that allows for its extraction.

3.3 · Category-specific rules.

Tutorials. A tutorial is just a tutorial. Its content cannot be redistributed in any way; bonus files (3D models, PSDs, etc.) are for personal projects only unless they are explicitly installable.

Installable Products. The End Product must be a unique implementation. You may use a plugin to sculpt or a brush to paint, but you must never redistribute the original files in any form.

3D Models & Textures. The End Product must be a unique implementation, often involving copy and content changes. You may use a model and its variations in your game; you cannot resell it as stock.

3.4 · Project scope.

A purchased Product may be used in one Project. Exception: Tutorials and Installable Products may be used in unlimited Projects on a one-user-per-license basis. A Project is a complete, cohesive undertaking that may result in one or more End Products; End Products in the same Project must be directly related under a single concept. All purchased Products may be used in unlimited Personal Use projects.

3.5 · End Products for Sale.

Under the Basic License, you may use purchased Products to create End Products for Sale where lifetime sales of the End Product for Sale do not exceed 1,000 units. Over that limit, upgrade to Commercial. If a Product is offered as a Free Product, its Basic License allows for personal use only. For End Products not offered for sale, you may distribute as many copies as you like.

An End Product For Sale is a digital design or physical Product that you and/or your client intend to sell to more than a single person - wholesale, drop-shipping, online stores, etc. "Intend to sell" means plan to sell, license, sub-license, or distribute the End Product for any fee or charge.

3.6 · What you may not do.

• Sub-license, resell, share, transfer, or otherwise redistribute the Product (as stock, in a tool/addon, with source files, or not incorporated into an End Product) under any circumstances, not even for free.
• Make the Product available on a shared drive, asset-management system, or similar for the purpose of sharing or transferring it. End users of your End Product must not be able to extract the original Product from it.
• Publicly display the Product as a standalone file, or in any digital format without technical or written restrictions to prevent unauthorized third-party use. Take all commercially reasonable steps to prevent duplication. Report unauthorized duplication to [email protected].
• Use the Product to infringe any third party's trademark or other intellectual property, or in a manner constituting deceptive advertising or unfair competition.
• Register the Product or any End Product incorporating it as a trademark, not even logos. (Third parties may use the same Product too, even in their own logo - keep that in mind.)
• Use the Product where doing so could result in a third party claiming rights contrary to this License. On Store-Owner request, immediately remove the Product from any unauthorized location or use.
• Falsely represent that the Product was created by you or by anyone other than its copyright holder.
• Use Products containing models and/or property in a manner that is unlawful, harmful, abusive, racially or ethnically offensive, defamatory, deceptive, infringing, invasive of personal privacy/publicity rights, harassing, humiliating, libellous, obscene, threatening, profane, or that promotes racism, bigotry, hatred, or physical harm.

3.7 · Broadcast usage.

For TV, films, streaming video, on-demand broadcasts, and online videos: up to 10,000 views or viewers per month. Beyond that, contact the Store Owner directly to discuss further rights options.

If you purchase a Commercial License:

• You may use the Product in any manner permitted under the Basic License, subject to the same obligations and restrictions.
• You may also use the Product to create an unlimited number of End Products for Sale, where the End Product for Sale may itself be sold an unlimited number of times.

Available only for Tutorials and Installable Products. If you purchase a Studio License:

• You may use the Product in any manner permitted under the Basic License, subject to the same obligations and restrictions.
• Any number of users from a single studio/establishment may also use Products purchased under the Studio License - i.e., a multi-seat license scoped to one physical location.

Open-source portions. Some Products may include portions governed by an open-source license such as the GPL. In those cases, this Cubebrush License covers any portion of the Product not already governed by the open-source license. Review the applicable open-source license to determine the requirements for the OSS portions.

Breach & termination. If you breach any of the Agreement terms, the license can be terminated - in addition to the Store Owner's and Cubebrush's other rights at law or in equity. On termination, you must stop making copies of or distributing the End Product until you remove the Product from it. Cubebrush is not obligated to refund any fees paid if your account is terminated for a breach.

Client compliance. If you create an End Product for a client, the client must comply with these License Terms.

Entire agreement. This Agreement (License Terms + Terms of Service) is the entire agreement between you, the Store Owner, and Cubebrush regarding your use of the Product. If any provision is invalid, the remaining provisions remain in full force. If there's an inconsistency between these License Terms and the TOS, these License Terms control for that inconsistency.

No waiver. Cubebrush or the Store Owner's failure to assert any right or provision under this License is not a waiver of that right or provision.

As-is. All Products are provided "as is" with no warranty of any kind - express or implied, including non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose. Cubebrush and Store Owners do not warrant that Products or services will meet your requirements, or that use will be uninterrupted or error-free. The risk as to quality, performance, and use is solely with you.

IP clearance. Products containing digital images of real products, trademarks, or other IP owned by third parties may require clearance from the rights owner. It's your responsibility to consider whether your intended use requires clearance, and to obtain it.
