Legacy Templates - Standard and Extended Licenses - License Use Cases

IMPORTANT: This article discusses the OLD Standard and Extended Licenses for all Template purchases made prior to May 28, 2019. If you purchased a product after May 28, 2019, this article will not apply. Your receipt will list the license you own, be the proof of the license, and you will be legally bound by the terms of that specific license. If you do not have a receipt to view, use the instructions from our help center here.

Can I use a template to make marketing material for my company?

Yes, this is permitted so long as what you create is an End Product. For purchased template Items, an End Product is a unique implementation of the Item, often requiring limited copy and content changes. For example, if you purchase a flyer template, you may use the template for your company's marketing material after having input your company's information (you may not resell it as stock).

Can I use a template as my corporation's main template for all presentations?

This is an acceptable use. However, each person who uses the template will need to own a license for that template (1 license for each person who uses the template).

Can I use a flyer template to make a flyer for my event that costs money?

Yes, this is permitted so long as what you create is an End Product. For purchased template Items, an End Product is a use of the Item where it is changed so it is different from the original, usually involving changes in text and content. For example, if you purchase a flyer template, you may use the template for an event after having input your event's information (you may not resell it as stock).
