Good afternoon! During the free period, I downloaded 10 images. There were two images with examples of the logo that I liked. And it turns out that I can not use them in the form of a logo, even if I buy a license? Did I understand correctly? If so, then why are these images offered?Thank you!  Sincerely, Svetlana.

    If you do not own rights to the images then you cannot use them commercially, especially as logos.

    Thank you! I've already read that even if I pay for the image, I can not use it as a logo. Then why do they sell the license for these images?

    Hi Svetlana,

    I understand your concern, however, the keywords are matched based on the entry made by the contributor at the time of submission.

    So while submitting these assets which you are referring to in your above mentioned, one of the keywords mentioned by the contributors are "logo".

    You need to have complete ownership of the image you use for your company logo since logos are intended to be registered and protected to prevent other companies or organizations from using the same image. Because Adobe Stock only grants a right to use images and does not transfer the ownership, these images cannot be used in or as a logo.

    For more information, please see Common Questions, Adobe Stock

    Additionally, if you use an unmodified image/asset from Adobe Stock, you can add a logo over an Adobe Stock asset (You can definitely add the logo that you own ). Credit line to the photographer needs to be added only when the image is used unmodified.

    Note: To use a direct asset from Adobe Stock to create a logo is not allowed.

    Feel free to update this thread in case of any additional questions.

    Regards,

    Twarita

    Good afternoon! Thank you for the detailed answer. If you allow another question. Can I use pictures in my project that I downloaded for free during the trial period? Thank you. Sincerely, Svetlana.
