"License Again" Does this mean that I need to relicense every six months?

So I was wondering if once you sign up for a plan that allows you to purchase 10 images every month.  Does this mean that the photos are mine permanently or do I only have them for a certain time before the "Adobe Stock" image shows up on top of the image.  The reason I ask is because in creating my website, I want to make sure that the images I purchase will be "mine" to use permanently because I will not be able to afford to re-license the images again at a later time.  I plan on using this plan for quite a while but I won't be able to if I will be required to relicense the pictures in the future.  Can anyone help me by letting me know before I continue to purchase images?  Thank you.

No, you will not have to license it again. You only need to license it again if you are going to use it for a different client or other similar case. You will not lose the license if you stop using Adobe Stock. It's yours to be used forever as long as the use case is within the license terms.

So if I want to buy a second license so I can use the same image for another client, can I buy a second Standard License or do I need to by an Extended License?

In other words, when I click on "License Again" in License History, is this going to cost me 1x Standard License, is it going to cost me $79.99, or does it give me the option to choose which license type I want to buy?

Thanks

Hi Chris,

In addition to Brad's reply, you will need to license the image again from within your license history for another client. However, the decision to license a standard image or extended image will depend upon your usage requirements for that client's work.

Let me know if that helps!

Regards,

Thank you Brad Lawryk and Sheena Kaul

I have purchased a second Standard License for the image now.

I see that my License History now shows two copies. What would be even better is if there was space to enter some free text against each license so I could write the client's name against each, to remind me in the future.

Is there some way to suggest this as a feature improvement?

Thanks

Chris

Thank you for your quick response.  I really appreciate it a lot.  Will I need to watch how many people come to my website in order to make sure that I get an "extended" or "enhanced" license before a picture is seen by more than 500,000 viewers?   It looks like a "standard" license only allows you to "show" it to 500,000 people or less.  Is that when I can license again or do I have to pay $79.00 after 500,000 people have visited a certain page on my website?  Thanks for taking the time to look at these questions.

You can purchase the Extended license when required.
