Webfont Service Licence Agreement
THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT. By accessing, downloading, or using the TPTQ Arabic Font Software you expressly agree to the following terms:
1.
This Licence is for the benefit of users authorized under this Agreement who are accessing fonts via the TPTQ Arabic Webfont Service (“TWFS”). This licence does not permit the downloading and use of TPTQ Arabic font software (“Font Software”) for use on a desktop, laptop or workstation; if you wish to use the TPTQ Arabic Font Software in such a manner you must secure a separate licence. If you will be re-serving the Font Software for use on the websites of third parties or otherwise making the Font Software available for use by others, you are required to purchase additional licences. You further agree to treat the Font Software as confidential information and exercise reasonable care to avoid unauthorised distribution of the Font Software. If you cannot or do not agree to the terms of this licence, do not access the TWFS and notify TPTQ Arabic, Zwaardstraat 16, 2584 TX, Den Haag, The Netherlands.
This means that you can use the fonts only as webfonts, not install them on your computers. For desktop fonts you will need a different licence.
2.
The Font Software and the designs embodied therein are the exclusive property of TPTQ Arabic. This non-exclusive and revocable licence grants you limited rights to use the Font Software on websites only. Other restrictions elsewhere in this licence may apply. All other rights, title and interest in and to the Font Software, together with the design of the Fonts embodied therein, the trademarks, trade names and service marks are each the exclusive property of TPTQ Arabic.
This means that by buying the licence you only buy the right to use the fonts. The fonts themselves remain the exclusive property of TPTQ Arabic.
3.
Except as may be otherwise expressly permitted herein or by a separate written agreement, you may not modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, alter, re-serve or otherwise copy the TPTQ Arabic Font Software or the designs embodied therein. You may not serve or re-serve the Font Software to third parties or websites that are not licensed by TPTQ Arabic. Serving the Font Software require a TPTQ Arabic Webfont Service Licence (“TWFS”). If you are accessing the Font Software via the TWFS, you agree not to modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, alter, modify, back-up, copy re-serve or otherwise attempt to redirect the TPTQ Arabic Font Software or the designs embodied therein to unauthorised recipients. The TPTQ Arabic Font Software or documentation may not be sublicensed, sold, leased, rented, lent, re-served or given away to another person or business.
This means that you canʼt modify or sell TPTQ Arabic fonts.
4.
If you are using the Font Software for the creation of a third party website, unless specifically licensed for such actions, the user displaying the TPTQ Arabic Fonts must purchase a TWFS Licence. If you have purchased a licence to use downloadable TPTQ Arabic Font Software you do not have rights to transmit, serve or otherwise deliver or re-serve the Font Software digitally or physically either for yourself or for the benefit of a client. Unless specifically licensed under this or a separate written agreement, no third party rights are granted herein. TPTQ Arabic offers a special form of this licence for use by persons or companies who wish to host and serve web fonts. If you wish to host and serve TPTQ Arabic web fonts for your website or those of your clients, contact TPTQ Arabic.
This means that the client also needs to buy a licence for the fonts, not just the designer. If you want to host the fonts yourself, it is possible with a separate licence.
5.
You agree that the creation of any derivative designs or typeface font software is expressly prohibited under this TWFS Licence. Any derivative work which uses, incorporates or is otherwise based upon the design of the Fonts or otherwise incorporates any of the TPTQ Arabic Font Software, including, but not limited to, software, EPS files, or other electronic works, are considered derivative works under the Law of the Netherlands and shall be the Property of TPTQ Arabic and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Licence. Derivative works may not be sublicensed, sold, leased, rented, lent, or given away without the express written permission of TPTQ Arabic. TPTQ Arabic shall not be responsible or liable for unauthorised, modified and/or regenerated software or derivative works.
This means that you can’t create other fonts based on our fonts. You also cannot sell or rent modified versions of our fonts.
6.
The TWFS Licence is a monthly subscription service available from TPTQ Arabic or its authorized providers of the TWFS. Use of the Font Software in font serving and/or replacement on websites or serving to websites, if so licensed, is permitted under this Agreement. If the TWFS service is terminated for whatever reason, you are not permitted to copy, store or archive the TPTQ Arabic Font Software for any purposes whatsoever. Failure to make payments for the TWFS will result in the termination of the TWFS. You will be provided with a basic level of bandwidth on the TWFS. Additional bandwidth or other functionality or services will incur additional fees. You are not permitted to redirect or re-serve the Font Software transmitted to you via the TWFS. The TWFS Licence granted herein is specific to you and the websites identified in this Licence Agreement and may only be used for legal purposes only and cannot be transferred, loaned, sold or assigned. You may not store or cache the Font Software, except as may temporarily occur during proper use, the TPTQ Arabic Font Software or the Font Software transmitted as a part of the TWFS. All rights not expressly identified and granted as a part of the TWFS are expressly reserved to TPTQ Arabic.
This means that you get some free monthly bandwidth, but if you go over it, you will pay a monthly fee.
7.
If you are an advertising agency, acting on behalf of an advertising agency or otherwise acting in a similar capacity or for the benefit of a third party, the purchase of a TWFS Licence for your client or the end user is required and, depending upon how the Font Software will be used, an additional licence upgrade and/or the purchase of an additional special licence may be also be required. If you are creating a work that requires access of the Font Software by a third party, the end using party is required to purchase the TWFS Licence. If you are using the Font Software in cinema, motion pictures, on television or on cable television, or in animations, irrespective of the method of transmission or viewing, a special media licence is required from TPTQ Arabic and an additional licence fee may also be required.
This means that you need a special licence if you plan to use the fonts in movies. End users will always have to have their own font licence.
8.
The TWFS is provided on a subscription basis and is configured to your anticipated usage volume/pageviews at the time of subscription. Changes in service needs may result in delays of service. Average users should experience no delays, a change to medium volume usage may result in a 2 day or more delay to match the TWFS to the volume usage. A change to a large volume/pageview service need may require 4 or more days to match the TWFS with the volume of page views requested. If you need to increase your service level or anticipate additional page view demand, you should notify TPTQ Arabic as early as possible so as to avoid or minimize delays or disruption of the TWFS and inconvenience to the visitors to your website.
This means that usually you can start using webfonts immediately, but in cases of very large websites, there might be a small delay to configure our servers to handle the traffic.
9.
The embedding of the TPTQ Arabic Fonts Software in other software or devices or in any other form whatsoever is not permitted under this Licence and requires the purchase of a separate licence agreement.
This means that you need a special licence if you plan to embed the fonts in hardware or software.
