I am in college and I need to use photoshop for my school work so I got the all app deal for students, am I allowed to use that account for other than schoolwork while I'm still studying, I want to start a business and I would want to use Photoshop for it, can I use my student account for business work or would I have to buy a sperate photoshop for business (or an individual photoshop account) I don't want to do something i am not allowed to do ( go against any law or against terms and conditions )

Hi @Noman5FBE,

What don't you understand?

 

Adobe owns the software but they don't own the work that you create with the software.  Excluding fonts which are not transferable, you own the work you create and you can sell it if you want to.

 

That said, going into business for yourself is more involved than just selling stuff. There may be local, State and Federal laws you must abide by also legal and insurance matters to consider.  But that's way beyond the scope of this forum.

 

Good luck and happy 2021!

It doesn't matter what you use it for personally  -- home, school, freelance work, teaching, etc...

Make whatever you want with your Student/Teacher edition.

 

When you're ready to hire employees, you will need a Teams/Enterprise plan for businesses.
