I would like to use the students licence from my university for commercial use as marketing manager. 

Is this ok? Or can i only use the students licence from my university for study projects and privat things? 

 

Greetings

Hi @jane-e 

 

Can you help clarify what Adobe means by "They may not be resold"? Sorry, I'm confused. What may not be resold? The products we make? We can only sell it once? I don't think I'm understanding it correctly but I think it's confusing and not clear.

 

Also, it is saying that: only Student products that we created as part of class assignments / projects can be sold? Meaning that if we use the Student license to create products for a small business, we can't sell that product we created because they weren't created as part of a class assignments / project? 

 

Thank you so much for your help and guidance!

I am a volunteer who does not work for Adobe. These words are from Adobe not me. See the link posted above for the FAQs:

My personal interpretation is:

  • "Student and Teacher Products may not be resold"
  • "Student and Teacher Products may be used commercially on your own privately owned computer"

 

I don't see another way to interpret the sentence and don't find it confusing. Have you tried diagramming it?
