Terms of Use

Thanks for checking out my Terms of Use information.  This represents my most current terms of use for my personal/S4H/commercial use products.  Questions - just email me at janice AT jwdigiscraps DOT com.  I'm happy to help and clarify.  :)

In general:

My kits are for personal and Scrap 4 Hire use.  Please check the details on Scrap 4 Hire use.
My layout templates can be used for Personal, Scrap 4 Hire, or commercial use to create quick pages for sale.
My Quick Pages are for Personal Use and NOT for use commercially or Scrap 4 Hire.
My commercial use products are fine for freebies with some modification, no credit required (but always appreciated.)  If you use a CU product in a freebie, credit is requested. (But I won't hunt you down.)  :)

Personal Terms of Use:


FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY, NO COMMERCIAL USE IS ALLOWED!

You MAY alter any graphics with respect to color, size or by adding to or removing from them BUT you MAY NOT claim altered graphics as your own.

You MAY NOT make alteration to graphics in any way that will change away the artistic integrity of the original creation.

You MAY NOT use any graphic(s) from this Collection to create obscene, defamatory, or immoral works. Nor is it permitted to use content (graphic(s)) from any of my creations for any other purpose which is prohibited by law.

You are ENCOURAGED to submit your scrapbook layouts using some or all parts of a kit to online or print publications as long as credit is given to the designer, JW-DigiScraps. While credit is always appreciated when posting in online galleries, it is not required. Please just use and enjoy.

You MAY NOT share these graphics, zip files or folders (together or separately) with anyone else, if someone is interested in these graphics then please direct them to the location in which you downloaded the graphics so they may download it themselves.
