This is an agreement between you, the purchaser, and TypeManufactur. In accepting the terms of this Agreement, you acknowledge understanding and promise to comply with its terms. If you do not accept the terms, please do not complete the purchase transaction.
Definitions: “Fonts” means the digital typeface software and all associated files provided by TypeManufactur. “Company Size” means the total number of employees of the legal entity licensed to use the Fonts, including full-time and part-time staff, whether or not they work directly with the Fonts. “Embedding” means including the Fonts in documents, websites, apps, or digital products in a manner that allows the rendering of text. All terms not explicitly defined here retain their commonly understood industry meaning.
By purchasing from TypeManufactur, you obtain a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use the ordered Fonts under the conditions of this Agreement. You are licensing the Fonts, not acquiring ownership, and your rights are limited to the specific uses granted herein. The Fonts and their design are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. All rights, title, and interest remain the exclusive property of TypeManufactur, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved.
This license is personal to you and tied to the company size tier stated in your agreement or your invoice. It may not be assigned, shared, sub-licensed, sold or transferred, in whole or in part, to any other person or organization without prior written permission from TypeManufactur. A license may be purchased on behalf of a client, provided the client is named as the licensee and becomes the legal holder of the license. The purchasing party does not acquire any rights to use the Fonts unless separately licensed. The Fonts may not be supplied to any third party other than the named licensee.
Desktop Fonts are provided in OpenType (OTF) format. Additional formats may be available upon request and may require supplemental licensing. Under a valid Desktop License, you may install and use the Fonts on any computers and devices of the licensing company for use by its employees. Any use beyond the licensed company-size tier requires the purchase of an additional license. Server-based installation is permitted, provided access to the Fonts is limited to employees of the licensee and not to any third party. Third-party use of the Fonts is not permitted. You may use the Fonts to create static, non-editable artwork provided the Fonts cannot be extracted, accessed, or used in editable form. Embedding the Fonts in any digital product, document, website, app, or device is not permitted under a Desktop License unless expressly covered by another license type you have purchased. Editable embedding and embedding in commercial products, software, games, or HTML5 content require a separate license.
Webfonts are provided in WOFF and WOFF2 formats. Uploading OTF or other desktop formats to a web server, or converting the Fonts into web formats, is strictly prohibited. The Fonts may not be used with any web embedding or replacement technologies other than standard @font-face usage without supplemental licensing. Under the Web License, you may use the Fonts for the domain specified in your invoice or this Agreement, including its subdomains, up to the number of monthly pageviews granted. Any use beyond this scope requires an additional license. The Web License permits use of the Fonts only for displaying text on the licensed website or web application. It does not cover services or tools where end users can select, edit, style, export, publish, or create content using the Fonts. Any use beyond this scope requires an additional license.
App Fonts are supplied in OpenType (OTF) format. Under the App License, the Fonts may be embedded in the number of distinct mobile app titles specified in your invoice or this Agreement, for use in native mobile applications on platforms such as iOS or Android. The Fonts may be used within the licensed mobile app only for displaying text that is part of the app itself. The App License does not permit use in desktop software, web applications, SaaS products, games, social media tools, creator tools, or any app, software, or service where end users can select, edit, style, export, publish, or create content using the Fonts. Such use requires a separate license or another written agreement. The Fonts must not be extractable, downloadable, or accessible outside of the licensed app in editable form.
EBook Fonts are supplied in OpenType (OTF) format. Under the eBook License, you may embed the Fonts in the eBook and/or PDF titles specified in your invoice or this Agreement, for use in formats such as EPUB, PDF, or other comparable read-only digital publications. Embedding is permitted only in a manner that prevents extraction or editable use of the Fonts. Any additional titles or any editable embedding require an additional license.
Corporate Fonts are supplied in all available formats and may be installed and used on an unlimited number of computers, servers, websites, apps, and eBook/PDF titles within the same legal entity that holds the license. This includes all employees and internal teams of that entity, regardless of location. In addition, under the Corporate License you may use the Fonts in digital advertising, and you may embed the Fonts in office documents and templates and in HTML email templates and newsletters sent in your name. Use by subsidiaries, affiliates or external contractors is not permitted unless explicitly stated in this Agreement or covered by an additional license. Certain types of use, such as use in games, embedded devices (OEM), software offered as a service (SaaS), or making the Fonts available as a standalone service or download to third parties, are not covered by the Corporate License and require a separate agreement. The size tier and fee for the Corporate License are defined in this Agreement.
You may make archival copies of the Fonts for your own purposes. You may not share, lend, make available, or provide access to the Fonts or any copies thereof to any third party outside your organization, including agencies, freelancers, or printing services. Third parties must receive only print-ready, non-editable documents. You may not modify, convert, adapt, decompile, or otherwise reverse engineer or create derivative works of the Fonts.
You may embed the licensed Fonts into any document you send to third parties in a secured "Preview & Print" mode, as long as the document itself is not a commercial product. You may not under any circumstances embed the licensed Fonts into software or hardware products in which the Fonts will be used by the purchasers of such products. Such use requires the purchase of supplemental licensing.
We have done everything we can to produce our Fonts to the highest and most up-to-date technical standards, and we test them extensively in technically compliant applications. If you encounter technical issues, we will gladly assist you to the best of our ability.
Except for the warranty that TypeManufactur has the rights to license the Fonts, the Fonts are provided “as is” without any other express or implied warranties. To the maximum extent permitted by law, TypeManufactur shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, and its total liability shall not exceed the amount paid for the license. This license terminates automatically if you breach this Agreement. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Fonts and delete all copies.
If any part of this Agreement is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Changes to this Agreement require written consent from TypeManufactur. This Agreement is governed by German law, and the exclusive venue for disputes is the court of TypeManufactur’s registered seat. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) does not apply.
