Licence & Acceptable Use
Last updated · June 2026
When you buy or commission a digital file, you are buying a licence to use that file, not the copyright itself. The copyright stays with me. Here is what the licence does and does not allow.
Personal Licence (default for shop downloads)
The Personal Licence is included by default with every ready-made download.
- Use the file in non-commercial personal projects: wallpapers, fan art, school work, personal social posts.
- Print the file at home for your own use.
- One end user, please do not share the file with friends; send them the product link instead.
Commercial Licence
The Commercial Licence is included with every custom commission, and can be added to shop downloads at checkout.
- Use the file in a commercial project: your game, your brand, your book, your product, paid client work.
- Crop, recolour and adapt the file to fit the format you need.
- Use across web, print, video and merchandise that you sell yourself.
- One commercial project / one brand per licence, additional brands need additional licences.
What no licence allows
Regardless of which licence you hold, you may not:
- Resell, redistribute or sublicense the file as-is, including as stock art, clipart, NFTs, AI training data or print-on-demand inventory.
- Claim authorship of the artwork or register it as your own trademark or copyright.
- Use the file for anything illegal, hateful, harassing, defamatory, sexually explicit involving real people, or that promotes violence against any group.
If you are unsure whether your use case fits, ask me first, I would much rather have a quick chat than a takedown later.
This website
The site itself, the writing, the layout, the portfolio thumbnails, is mine. You are welcome to view, link to and share it, but please do not copy whole sections of copy or images and republish them as your own.
If something goes wrong
If I find a use that breaks this policy, I will reach out and ask you to take it down. Continued misuse may mean revoking the licence to the file involved.
Questions about any of this? Write to ptak@inbox.eu and I'll answer personally, in plain English.
