Commercial Images — License Terms

Last Updated: September 22, 2026

1. Applicability

These terms apply when you license still images for commercial, promotional, advertising, packaging, or branded use, or when Content is designated Commercial. They apply in addition to the Standard License Terms.

Self-serve NX editorial packages do not include commercial advertising rights. For editorial stills, see Editorial Images.

2. Custom / sales-led licensing

  • Commercial image licenses are generally issued under a custom quote or signed agreement defining permitted uses, territories, media, duration, exclusivity, and fees.
  • Clearances (model, property, trademark) are addressed only to the extent stated in that agreement; additional clearances remain your responsibility unless we expressly warrant otherwise in writing.
  • Commercial licenses are not transferable to affiliates or clients unless the agreement names them as licensed users.
  • Contact [email protected] before any advertising, endorsement, packaging, or branded campaign use.

3. Still image commercial rules

  • Use is limited to the End Uses, layouts, and media expressly listed in your commercial agreement (e.g. print ad, OOH, social paid, packaging).
  • You may not use commercial stills in a context that is defamatory, unlawful, or that falsely implies endorsement by depicted persons beyond what releases cover.
  • Merchandise, NFTs, templates for resale, and AI training use require express written permission in the agreement.
  • Delivery files and resolution are as specified in the quote; unused options (e.g. exclusivity renewals) are not included unless purchased.

4. Relationship to editorial Content

Editorial-designated images may not be used commercially unless we issue a separate commercial license for that asset. Purchasing an editorial tier does not convert the asset to commercial use.
