For Customers and their use in Creations, this definition also includes derivative and intermediary files used for that purpose.
"Site" refers to the Strata websites, API’s, software applications or any approved means or utility either currently in existence or in the future; the software and source code used by Strata to provide such services; user interface layouts, designs, images, text, knowledgebase articles, program offers; site information provided in reports (such as popular keyword searches); and all other intellectual property protected under copyright, trademark, patent, publicity, or any other proprietary right.

“The following restrictions”, “the foregoing restrictions”, and “subject to the restrictions” are considered to be followed with “in addition to all other restrictions applicable within this agreement.”
II. License Rights
- Ownership. Strata does not grant title or ownership in Stock Design Assets. All rights in Stock Design Assets not expressly granted in this agreement are reserved by Strata for itself and its licensors.
- Rights Granted. For Stock Design Assets, Strata grants to you a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide right and license to copy, distribute, reproduce, adapt, publicly display, publicly perform, digitally perform, transmit, broadcast, telecast, advertise, create derivative works, and market Stock Design Assets within Creations in the uses authorized in this agreement. You may request authorization for a use not covered by this agreement (“New Use”) by writing support@Strata.com. Strata is authorized to approve a New Use if Strata finds in its sole judgment that the New Use is substantially similar to another established use in this agreement, and authorizes the New Use in writing.
- Rights Granted When Sharing Stock Design Assets. If you Purchase as an employee of a corporate entity, sharing Purchased Stock Design Assets with other employees of your corporate entity is allowed. Examples of allowed sharing include storing files on a networked hard drive, and aggregating Stock Design Assets for later use in future Creations. You are responsible for any downstream distribution, use, or misuse by a recipient of a shared Stock Design Asset. In all cases, sharing Stock Design Assets with external people or entities is only allowed in the following situations, and with the following restrictions:
a. In the production of a Creation owned by you, if you are working in collaboration with external parties, and there is a need to share Stock Design Assets for the development and production of your Creation, sharing Stock Design Assets with those external parties is allowed. Any external party that receives Stock Design Assets may only use Stock Design Assets on your Creations and must take reasonable care to secure and limit access to Stock Design Assets to that purpose.
b. In the production of a Creation owned by another entity (“your Client”), if you are working as a contractor and need to share Stock Design Assets with your Client, or any external parties working with your Client, sharing Stock Design Assets is allowed, subject to the restriction that all parties may use Stock Design Assets only for your Client’s particular Creation, and for successive versions of your Client’s Creation, such as sequel Computer Games or movies that utilize the same 3D models. All parties must take reasonable care to secure and limit access to Stock Design Assets to the parties working on your Client’s Creation. For all other use by any party, Stock Design Assets must be Purchased again to create a new license agreement governing that use.
- Editorial Use Restriction for Some Stock Design Assets. The following restrictions apply to any Stock Design Asset affixed with an “Editorial” notice on its Product Page. The Editorial notice is one way to alert you that certain subject matter depicted by Stock Design Assets, such as a manufactured product under a brand name, may be protected by another party’s Intellectual Property rights (“Other-Party Intellectual Property”). Permitted use of Other-Party Intellectual Property in Stock Design Assets is limited to news reporting in Creations of some cultural, editorial, journalistic, or otherwise newsworthy value, and includes news reporting on television and the internet. This restriction does not apply if you have the needed authorization to use the Other-Party Intellectual Property for your Creation, such as if you are the Intellectual Property owner yourself, or an Intellectual Property owner’s advertising team, hired party, or licensee purchasing that company’s product.
- Other-Party Intellectual Property. Strata does not own or license any Other-Party Intellectual Property. Strata does not in any way make any representations or warranties about Other-Party Intellectual Property associated with Stock Design Assets. You are solely responsible for determining the need for and, if appropriate, obtaining any needed Other-Party clearance, consent, or release to use any Other-Party Intellectual Property in your Creations.
- Creations of Imagery.
Permitted Uses of Creations of Imagery. Subject to the following restrictions, you may use Creations of Imagery within news, film, movies, television programs, video projects, multi-media projects, theatrical display, software user interfaces; architectural renderings, Computer Games, virtual worlds, simulation and training environments; corporate communications, marketing collateral, tradeshow promotional items, booth decorations and presentations; pre-visualizations, product prototyping and research; mobile, web, print, television, and billboard advertising; online and electronic publications of blogs, literature, social media, and email campaigns; website designs and layouts, desktop and mobile wallpapers, screensavers, toolbar skins; books, magazines, posters, greeting cards; apparel items, brochures, framed or printed artwork, household items, office items, lenticular prints, product packaging and manufactured products.
Restrictions on Permitted Uses of Creations of Imagery.
a. Stock Media Clearinghouse. You may NOT publish or distribute Creations of Imagery through another stock media clearinghouse, for example as part of an online marketplace for photography, clip art, or design templates.
b. Promotional Images. Images displayed for the promotion of Stock Design Assets, such as preview images on the Stock Design Asset’s Product Page (“Promotional Images”), may be used in Creations of Imagery, provided that the Stock Design Asset itself has been Purchased and subject to the following restrictions:
i. You may NOT use a Promotional Image that has any added element which is not included as part of the Stock Design Asset. An example of this type of restricted use is if the Stock Design Asset contains a 3D model of an airplane, and there is a Promotional Image of that airplane rendered over a blue sky; however, the blue sky image is not included as part of the Stock Design Asset. Other prohibited examples include use of Promotional Images from movies or advertisements that may have used Stock Design Asset.
ii. You may NOT use any Promotional Image that has a logo, mark, watermark, attribution, copyright or other notice superimposed on the image without prior approval from Strata Support.
c. Business Logos. You may NOT use Imagery in any Creation that is a trademark, servicemark, or business logo. This restriction is included because the owners of these types of Creations typically seek exclusivity on the use of the imagery in their Creation, which is incompatible with the non-exclusive license granted to you under this agreement.
- Creations of Computer Games and Software
Permitted Uses in Creations of Computer Games and Software. Subject to the following restrictions, you may include Stock Design Assets in Creations of Computer Games, virtual worlds, simulation and training environments; mobile, desktop and web applications; and interactive electronic publications of literature such as e-books and electronic textbooks.
Restrictions on Permitted Uses of Stock Design Assets in Creations of Games and Software.
a. Interactivity. Your inclusion of Stock Design Assets within any such Creation is limited to uses where Stock Design Asset is required to produce an interactive experience for the user. Such a permitted example of this use would be to include a 3D model of human anatomy in a medical training application, in a way that the 3D model may be manipulated or interacted with, and also where Imagery would not reasonably suffice for the intended use.
b. Access to Stock Design Assets. You must take all reasonable and industry standard measures to prevent other parties from gaining access to Stock Design Assets. Stock Design Assets must be contained in proprietary formats so that they cannot be opened or imported in a publicly available software application or framework, or extracted without reverse engineering. You may NOT publish or distribute Stock Design Assets in any open format, or format encrypted with decryptable open standards (such as WebGL or an encrypted compression archive).
c. Open Systems. You may NOT include Stock Design Assets in Creations that have the general functionality for importing and/or exporting Stock Design Assets. An example of such a prohibited use is to include Stock Design Assets as a starter library within a Creation that allows users to generally work with 3D models, even if the Stock Design Asset itself is somehow protected and is not capable of being exported. Instead, the users of such a software application may Stock Design Assets Products directly from the Site.
d. Virtual Good Sales. You may NOT import, upload, reproduce, make available, publish, transmit, distribute, or sublicense Stock Design Assets in Creations of virtual goods or worlds for any 3D community (“Virtual World”), unless you or your Client owns the Virtual World platform and it complies with the foregoing restrictions.
- Creations of Physical Form.
Permitted Uses in Creations of Physical Form . Subject to the following restrictions, you may use Stock Design Assets to make physical Creations such as 3D printed works, articles of manufacture, custom vehicles, furniture, jewelry, sculptural artwork, toys, and physical entertainment goods (“Creations of Physical Form”).
Restrictions on Permitted Uses in Creations of Physical Form .
a. Substantially Similar Creations. Permitted use of any Creation of Physical Form in which a Stock Design Asset is untransformed or substantially similar to the Stock Design Asset, is limited to personal use, gifts, or charitable donations, with a maximum of 5 instances of such Creation per Purchase; unless the Stock Design Asset is a small part of a much larger array of other physical objects in the Creation. For example, if you are creating a real-world, physical human skeleton for manufacture for sale, it is permitted to add a 3D printed human head that exactly resembles the Purchased Stock Design Asset, but it is not permitted to sell the 3D printed head by itself. Another permitted example of a Stock Design Asset being a small part of a larger array is using a 3D model that ends up within an automobile as a part of the automobile.
b. No Other-Party Intellectual Property. You may NOT reproduce Other-Party Intellectual Property in any Creation of Physical Form for any purpose.

If Strata has granted you, as a hardware or software partner, access to priced Stock Design Assets on a free-of-charge basis, your use of Stock Design Assets is restricted to internal testing for your 3D software or hardware products, and to the promotion of your software or hardware products with Creations of Imagery provided that an attribution of the artist’s name and the Site are included.

- LIMITED INTERNAL USER ARBITRATION.

Subscription Terms
The service begins when we confirm your initial payment. Some subscription purchases require an initial License Fee. We will charge you the subscription payment at the time of purchase, and monthly until you cancel. Once the subscription payment has been charged, that charge is final and no refund is available. The subscription payment is subject to change—but we’ll always notify you beforehand.
You can cancel anytime by visiting your Purchase History page (you'll need to log into your account before your purchase history will display) or contacting Customer Support. Canceling your membership stops the charge at the start of your next billing term—but your service will continue through the end of your current term.
