This Agreement explains the permitted and prohibited uses of our Fonts. Please read it carefully before using your purchase.

1. Grant of License & Use of Products

Legal Terms:

Our Fonts are licensed, not sold. Purchasing a Font grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Font according to the license purchased.
Your license covers the use of the Font software, not ownership of the underlying intellectual property.

You may use the Font for personal and commercial projects, provided your intended use falls within the scope of your purchased license.
Any use outside the permitted scope requires an additional or extended license.

You're purchasing permission to use our Fonts, not ownership of the font files. Your license determines how you can use them in your projects and business.

2. Intellectual Property & Ownership

Legal Terms:

All Fonts, including their designs, characters, glyphs, software, and associated intellectual property, remain the exclusive property of The Inking Rose LLC.
