Sample Download Contract

Perhaps the key provision in this kind of contract is the licence: the grant of rights to the customer to do things with downloaded images. For example, customers may be granted rights to copy, adapt and publish images (without infringing copyright). This download contract includes a detailed licence with a wide range of options.

Website operators selling downloadable images will need to comply with the Ecommerce Regulations and - in the case of sales to consumers - the Distance Selling Regulations. The download contract has been drafted to aid compliance with these pieces of legislation.
