FaceType – End User License Agreement (EULA)

FaceType thanks you for reading this license and taking the time to understand it in detail! Your support makes this foundry possible.

We provide two types of licenses: personal and commercial. Certain conditions apply for both and we cover those before the specifics.

Acknowledgments

FaceType is willing to license the licensed product to Licensees only on the condition that the Licensee accepts the terms and conditions contained in this agreement. By placing an order for and accepting FaceType font software (electronic data), or by downloading the software accompanying this license, the Licensee acknowledges that he has read all of the terms and conditions of this agreement, understands them, and agrees to be bound by them.

If the Licensee does not agree to these terms and conditions, he must promptly cease download or use of the licensed product and return the licensed product to FaceType or its reseller for a full refund of the license fee which the Licensee paid for the licensed product, and the Licensee must immediately delete any portion of the font software installed on Licensee’s computer(s).

If you intend to create a trademark, logo, brand or corporate identy, a multinational campaign using any of FaceType’s typefaces or if the number of prints for large commercial projects exceeds 250,000, a special font license solely issued by FaceType is needed. Please contact us for more information: info@monolisa.dev.

1. Personal license

For personal use, you are permitted to use the typeface on your own computer(s), including your work computer. However, you are not permitted to use the typeface within a commercial context defined below and share the typeface with others in any way.

In other words, you can use the typeface for developing a product but not as a part of a product. For specific restrictions per plan, please refer to the buy page.

To give you further examples of what you can do with the personal license, consider the section 3.a but keep the overall constraint (i.e., no commercial usage) in mind.

2. Commercial license

To cover the commercial case, we provide a specific license that provides more freedoms. Again, this depends on the specific subscription chosen. In short, the commercial license allows the following types of usages:

Desktop/print usage (section 3.a) - i.e., using the typeface on your computer or as a part of your prints
Web usage (section 3.b) - i.e., hosting the typeface on your infrastructure and using it as a part of your web product
Application usage (section 3.c) - i.e., using the typeface within your commercial application
ePub usage (section 3.d) - i.e., using the typeface in your commercial ebook

The sections 3 to 6 below describe commercial use cases in further detail.

3. Use cases

3.a Desktop

3.a.1 Definition

You may install a font into your computer’s operating system and use it in any of your applications that contain a fonts menu such as TextEdit, Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop or Indesign.

3.a.2 The Licensee May

Create print documents, posters, business cards, goods for sale, (such as clothing apparel and accessories), physical goods, static images, and other objects like stationery, mugs, T-shirts and the like.

3.a.3 Embedding Restrictions

PDF embedding of the font software into PDF documents is only permitted in a secured read-only mode that allows only printing and viewing, and prohibits editing, selecting, enhancing or modifying the text.

Licensee must ensure that recipients of PDF documents cannot extract the FaceType font software from such PDF documents or use the embedded font software for editing purposes or for the creation of new documents.

If you are unable to limit access to the document to ‘printing and viewing’ only, the electronic document(s) may not be used on computers that are not Licensed Computers.

Examples of non-commercial, not-for-profit permitted usage include PDF documents supplied to Service Bureaus, printers, or any documents that disseminate personal, internal or business information.

3.a.4 Number of Users

The number of users allowed depends on your plan (personal, subscription) and the restrictions have been communicated at the buy page.

3.b Web

You can embed the purchased webfont into your website (a group of pages related to one domain, including sub-domains).

FaceType is not responsible for installing, embedding, hosting or updating the webfonts. Web design agencies or hosting providers are not allowed to share a single license across their clients’ websites.

3.c Application

You can use the typeface in an app for iOS, Android, or Windows Phone or any other mobile OS, and you intend to embed the font files in your mobile application’s code. The amount of installations across the platforms (i. g. iOS, Android, …) is unlimited.

Application usage includes incorporating the font software into your hardware, software or any other products, such as application programs, interfaces, EPOS, WEPOS, POSReady, operating systems, electronics, electronic games, entertainment products, video on demand, gaming devices.
