// licence terms
  1. Parties. The licence is granted by the foundry that lists the font (the licensor), through Agentfonts, to the person or organisation named as licensee when the licence is bought. An AI agent may buy on the licensee's behalf; the agent itself is never the licensee.
  2. Grant. A non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the licensed fonts (one style, several styles, or a bundle) for the use and within the limits stated above. The licence is perpetual unless it states a term in years.
  3. Uses. Desktop: install on up to the stated number of computers used by the licensee, for print and static images. Web: serve as web fonts (@font-face) from up to the stated number of domains the licensee controls, up to the stated unique visitors per month (averaged over six months). App: embed in the stated number of apps. E-publication: embed in the stated number of titles. Local server: install on servers with up to the stated number of CPU cores that render output with the font, without giving end users access to the font files, for the stated number of years. A foundry may define other licence types; their limits are stated above.
  4. Bundles. A family, variable or collection bundle covers the styles in it when the licence was bought.
  5. Not allowed. Redistributing, selling or sharing the font files; making them available for download; using them outside the licensed use or above the limit. Subsetting for web or embedding is allowed. Modifying the font is allowed only for open-licence fonts.
  6. Upgrades. Using the font beyond the limit needs a new or larger licence.
  7. Foundry terms. If the foundry publishes its own EULA, it applies too, and wins where it is stricter.
  8. Proof. The signed licence token and the payment transaction are the proof of licence. Anyone can check a token at /v1/license/verify.
  9. Refunds and disputes. If a font turns out not to belong to the foundry that listed it, the licence can be refunded within the hold period and the font taken down.

Working draft of the standard licence. It may change before general availability; a licence keeps the terms it was bought under.
