Klim Type Foundry
Desktop Font Licence Agreement
Version 3.1, May 2014
The Terms of this End User Licence Agreement (Agreement) will apply between Klim Type Foundry (Klim) and You (You) if you purchase a licence or licences to use KlimÕs Font Software (Fonts).
When you purchase a Font, you are purchasing the right to use that Font under a particular set of conditions. These conditions range from, for example, how many computers the font can be installed on to whether it can be embedded in digital documents. It is important to read and understand this Agreement because it defines your rights, the acceptable uses of our Fonts, and the rights Klim reserves. If you believe your usage or need is not addressed, or if you are unsure of the meaning of any term or condition, please ask us before making a purchase.
Klim agrees to grant You a licence or licences to use the Fonts on the terms of this Agreement and provided that You comply with these terms. This licence is not exclusive to You, may not be transferred by You, and can be revoked by Klim.
You agree that Klim owns all rights, including (without limitation) intellectual property rights, and title in and to the Fonts and all trademarks, registered and unregistered which are used in or in relation to the Fonts.
1. Definitions.
1a. ÒKlimÓ is the Klim Type Foundry, the trading brand of The Letterheads Limited.
1b. ÒYouÓ, ÒYourÓ and the ÒEnd UserÓ are defined as and refer to a customer who has purchased a licence to use the Font. An End User is not defined as a distributor, reseller, dealer, sub-licensee, original equipment manufacturer (ÒOEMÓ), or other wholesale buyer, etc. Klim Fonts and products may not be distributed and/or sold to third parties without prior written consent from Klim.
1c. ÒFontÓ, ÒFontsÓ or ÒFont SoftwareÓ have identical meanings in this agreement. They are defined as the designs of the Fonts and the Software identified on your sales receipt that produces a typeface design(s) together with any other artworks that may be associated with the Font.
2. Permitted Uses and Restrictions.
2a. Installation
The Fonts may be installed and used on the number of computing devices identified on your invoice. For example, the purchase of a 1-3 CPU Licence allows for the installation and use of the Font on up to three (3) computing devices. Fonts may not be stored or used in any manner that makes them accessible to the public or non-licensed third parties. For the purposes of clarity, this licence is for individual users or organisations purchasing for employees only. Under no circumstances may the licensed Fonts be shared with contractors, freelance employees, or affiliates. You may add more computing devices to your licence by purchasing additional licences.
2b. Servers
You may install the Fonts on a single file server for use on a local area network (ÒLANÓ) within your business or household. The number of computing devices that can access the fonts on the server must not exceed the number of computing devices identified on your invoice.
2c. Font File Protection
You agree to use reasonable measures to protect the Fonts from access and use by unlicensed third-parties.
2d. Authorised Use
Authorised uses of the Fonts includes the production of paper publications like newspapers, books and magazines, print and broadcast advertising, vinyl or printed signage, logos and logotypes, newsletters and annual reports.
2e. Service Bureau/Printers
To reproduce a particular document, you may provide a copy of the specified Fonts to a commercial printer or service bureau. Afterwards, the printer or service bureau must destroy the copies of the Fonts.
2f. Back-up Copies
You may make one (1) copy of the Fonts for back-up purposes only. Copies must contain the same documentation, copyright, trademark, and other proprietary notices that appear on, in or with the Fonts. You must keep this back-up copy secure and must not allow any third party to have access to it. You will indemnify Klim for all costs, damages or losses incurred as a result of your failure to comply with this clause.
2g. Embedding of Fonts
The embedding of Fonts into digital documents, like PDFs, is permitted so long as i) the Font Software is subset, ii) the document text can be viewed and printed but not edited, and iii) reasonable measures are taken to ensure recipients of such documents cannot extract or use the embedded Fonts. Rasterized copies of images showing the Font are permitted provided the images do not result in all or substantially all of the characters comprising the Font. If the resulting images show most or all of the Font characters, a rasterized showing of the Font is not permitted.
2h. Webfonts, @font-face and Font Linking
Using Klim Fonts with the CSS rule @font-face, Cufn, or other forms of font linking, regardless of format, are strictly prohibited under this Agreement. A separate Webfont licence and accompanying software are each available from Klim for this purpose.
2i. Apps, Games, Hardware and Software
This licence expressly prohibits the embedding, inclusion, calling or linking of the Fonts within hardware and software in any form whatsoever. This includes, but is not limited to, video games, server-side applications, online document creation, mobile apps, kiosks, and OEM products or software. If you wish to use the Fonts for such purposes, a separate licence is available from Klim. Notwithstanding, rasterized images of limited text and/or logos created using the Font Software are permitted.
2j. Modifications
You may create outline artworks based upon the Fonts for your personal or business use. However, the use of any font creation or font manipulation program or any attempt to modify the Font for the purposes of creating a usable, derivative or substitute version of the Font is prohibited. Under no circumstances may you modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, alter, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of the Fonts or the designs embodied therein. You further agree not to commission or authorise any third party to undertake modifications to the Fonts without prior written consent from Klim. Consent may or may not be granted at our sole discretion.
2k. Restriction of Alphabet Products
This licence expressly prohibits the use of the Fonts in the creation of alphabet products such as, but not limited to: house numbers, stamp sets, rub-on letters, adhesive alphabet letters, alphabet punch and die sets or other methods for use in making such products. Any such use requires the purchase of a special licence.
3. Rights Reserved
3a. You expressly acknowledge that the Font Software, the designs embodied therein, the trade names and/or trademarks and copyrights associated therewith are each the exclusive property of Klim. All rights not expressly granted under this licence are reserved to Klim.
3b. You agree that the Fonts and the design of the Fonts embodied therein are owned by Klim and the FontsÕ structure, organisation and code are the valuable trade secrets of Klim.
