WEBFONT EULA

 

Intro

Thank you for choosing to license a Vocal Type Co. font and typeface. By installing this Font Software, you are acknowledging that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by the terms of this End User License Agreement (the “EULA” or “License”). This EULA is between you and Vocal Type Co. (“we”, “us” “Vocal Type” or “Licensor”). If you have any questions relating to your rights to use the Font Software or would like to obtain an addendum to permit any use not included here, please contact us at beheard@vocaltype.co.

License and Fee

You are licensing the “Font Software” from us. This non-transferable License is for your personal or commercial use of the Font Software to create, style and (subject to certain pageview limits) publish HTML documents on the Internet on certain designated URLs. Please note, however, you are not buying the Font Software from Vocal Type, and so, you may only use the Font Software as expressly permitted in this EULA.

All rights that are not specifically granted under this EULA are reserved by us. The license will not be effective until our receipt of the license fee, which fee is a one-time payment and is deemed fully earned upon our receipt.

Grant

This EULA gives you the non-transferable and limited right to install and use the Font Software to create, style, edit and display text via the CSS@font-face rule (i) at those specified Internet domain(s) owned and controlled by you, and (ii) provided that the display at such domain(s) will not exceed the monthly number of unique pageviews you specified in the license table.

 

Permitted Uses

The following uses are expressly permitted under this Agreement (and all other use is prohibited and reserved to Vocal Type, unless you have an addendum or another applicable license from us):

This License grants you the right, as set forth above to use the Font Software to create, style, edit and display HTML documents at the domain(s) specified by you in your order form, provided that you own and control the domain(s).

You may display the content created by the Font Software for up to the monthly number of unique pageviews you selected from the license table at the time you downloaded the Font Software. (This “monthly” pageview calculation take into consideration the number of pageviews for any three (3) contiguous months at the specified domain(s), and dividing such pageviews by three). Please note that you are solely responsible for selecting the number of pageview for which this License applies, and you will not be entitled to any refund, credit or discount in the event that your website has less traffic (i.e. fewer pageviews) than the amounts you selected in your order form. In the event that your pageviews exceed the designated amount, you must purchase an upgrade which allows for those additional monthly pageviews.

Specific Restrictions On Use

You may not use the Font Software to create websites, webpages, articles or documents for display on others’ domain names or websites. (i.e. You must own and control the domain(s) where the content created by the Font Software is displayed). You also may not, of course, use the Font Software in excess of pageview limits you specify upon download.

This is not a “Desktop”, “Application”, or “eBook /ePub”) license, and therefore, You agree that you will not use the Font Software to create (or adorn) documents, stationery, signage or other printed materials, or in any “static” or embedded digital materials (such as, without limitation, pdf, ePub or other eReader file, iOS, TTF, or OTF) files, and you further agree that you will not embed the Font Software in any software application, web-based or otherwise (including in any word processor or presentation software).

This also is not a “Broadcast “or “Webcast” license and therefore grants no rights to the Licensee to use the Font Software to create text that will be displayed or used in audio-visual works (including video) broadcast via network, cable, satellite or other television (or any such channel’s online website(s)), any online subscription-based services, (such as NetFlix or Hulu), or celebrity webseries, whether on the Internet or broadcast through other media.

You further agree that the Font Software shall not be copied (except as expressly permitted here), in whole or in part, decompiled, "reverse-engineered", disassembled, altered, or otherwise accessed in any way in order to derive the source code for the Font Software or used in any way to create a derivative work, and that you also will take commercially reasonable precautions to secure the Font Software to prevent unlicensed end users from accessing the Font Software and using it in violation of this Agreement.

This replacement or refund shall take place in due course. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and any other provision in this EULA, Vocal Type’s maximum total cumulative liability arising from the Font Software under any type of claim (i.e. whether tort or breach of contract) shall not exceed the amount License Fee that we have received from you in connection with this EULA.

This provision will survive termination of this EULA for any reason.

Waiver
