Your commercial license allows you to sell products made with designs, but there are important restrictions you need to know. You can’t resell, redistribute, or share the original digital files, and you must sell finished products, not the source files themselves.
Can I Sell Digital Downloads of the Designs?
No, you can’t sell digital downloads of the designs themselves. Under your commercial license, you’re permitted to sell finished products created using the designs, not the raw files. Selling files as-is, such as SVGs or other vector formats, is strictly prohibited.
What Types of Products Can I Sell?
You can sell a wide range of finished products made with purchased designs. This includes items like:
- Apparel (like shirts and hoodies)
- Home decor (like wall art and pillows)
- Stationery (like greeting cards or planners)
- Scrapbooking supplies
- Laser cut items (created using machines like Glowforge or xTool)
Ensure these products are physical items rather than digital downloads of the designs themselves.
Are There Restrictions on Platforms Where I Can Sell?
Yes, where you sell your products matters. While you can sell on platforms like Etsy and at craft shows, you must adhere to the platform’s rules. For example, on Etsy, your listings should clearly specify that the items are physically created products rather than digital downloads. Additionally, some marketplaces may have specific guidelines that could affect what you can and cannot sell.
What Happens if I Violate the License Terms?
If you violate the terms of your commercial license, you risk legal action and may lose your access to future updates or new designs. It’s vital to understand these limitations to avoid jeopardizing your business.
Can I Make Modifications to the Designs?
Yes, you can modify designs to fit your needs. All designs downloaded through uVectors are drawn in-house, ensuring versatility. Whether you want to change colors, sizes, or layers, feel free to adjust the designs in software like Cricut Design Space or Silhouette Studio. However, remember that the original files can’t be redistributed, even if they’re modified.
Do I Need to Provide Attribution When Selling?
No, you do not need to provide attribution for the designs when selling your products. Your commercial license grants you the rights to sell finished products without needing to credit uVectors or the original designer. However, it's always wise to keep records of your purchases in case of inquiries.
Can I Create Bundles or Mix and Match Designs?
You can create product bundles or mix multiple designs together as long as the final product is a unique, tangible item that you will sell. Selling the bundled files or creating a digital download of the mixed designs, however, is not allowed. You can bundle physical products, like a set of T-shirts or home decor items, but not the actual design files.
Is There a Limit to How Many Products I Can Sell?
There are no set limits on how many finished products you can sell, provided that they are made with the designs you purchased under your commercial license. Your business could expand significantly without the worry of restrictive per-item licensing fees.
Conclusion
When using your commercial license for uVectors designs, remember to focus on selling finished products and avoid sharing the original files. Always adhere to the platform guidelines where you choose to sell your items, and feel free to modify designs as needed. This understanding will help protect your business and ensure your use of our designs is compliant and successful.
