Hello.  Can I use a stock image on merchandise that is intended for free giveaway and has nothing to do with the products being promoted?  To be specific i would like to use an image on refillable water bottles (around 200 will be prodiced) at a veterinary conference - we are a diagnostic company selling equipment and just want some interesting goodies to give to potential customers.

Just checking as it is not clear from https://stock.adobe.com/uk/license-terms

Correct answer Abambo

I can't see what is not clear in the terms for your application. But here you are:

 

  • merchandise needs an extended licence.
  • you can use the asset for any use you want, no specific application is ruled out, except the adult industry and political activism.
  • you can also modify, so that your asset fits your need.
  • the print run is not relevant for an extended licence.

So the short answer to your questions are: yes, but needs an extended licence.

 

Look here for more information on licensing: https://community.adobe.com/t5/stock/links-for-licensing-terms/td-p/11366788
(Disclaimer: As always with licensing, this is my interpretation of the rules. I think they are correct and advice is based on reading and interpreting the licence terms and on fair use for both the buyer and the artist/stock company, but I cannot rule out that my interpretation is wrong. I'm not an Adobe employee).
