Writing a set of terms and conditions or End User License Agreement (EULA) is hard, and not something that creators tend to have the experience to do well. Before we introduced our standardised EULAs we saw countless cases of a creator creating unreasonable and unenforceable terms which would turn buyers away or cause other problems.

Another problem with creators creating their own EULA from scratch is that they’re difficult for buyers to understand and often times are completely skipped over by just selecting agree without fully reading to understand them.

To remedy this, we’ve created a standard EULA which we encourage all creators to use for their products. It covers the information relevant to creators and buyers in a succinct way.

Standard EULAs

We’ve taken inspiration from choosealicense.com and their license picker page as their way of distilling the complexity of a license down to its key points is extremely easy to understand and effective. The two components to a standard EULA are the permissions and limitations which cannot be directly changed and are the same for every Pro resource across the site

Permissions

Permissions are terms that tell buyers the ways they are allowed to use products. They are:

1. Hosting - Buyers may upload the product to a secure and reliable host
2. Commercial use - Buyers may make money by using this product
3. Modification - Buyers may make changes if they need to

If you’d like to change any of these permissions, refer to our section on Custom EULAs.

Limitations

A limitation is the opposite of a permission, it tells buyers ways that they are not allowed to use your products. Limitations are set to:

1. Resale - Buyers may not resell this product
2. Relicense - Buyers may not relicense this product
3. Refunds - Buyers may not receive a refund. Buyers’ licenses is automatically delivered upon purchase
4. Redistribution - Buyers may not make this product accessible to anyone who does not require access in order to work on the projects which this product is required for, and buyers will be held responsible if the product is shared outside of buyers’ project

If you’d like to change any of these limitations, refer to our section on Custom EULAs.

Custom EULAs

There are many valid reasons that you may want to add additional terms or modify the existing permissions and limitations included in the standard EULA. For this reason, we allow the option of creating a third component for your EULA: conditions.
