Use of image for press release

[#1]

Hi, I'm finding it very hard to understand whether I can use Adobe stock images (roylalty free, standard licence ) to accompany a press release. We regulary, distribute press releases about market analysis or product releases and media often ask for an accompanying image  eg a press release about oil production in North America. Can I distribute an image of an oil well with my press release assuming I credit the author?

Thanks

Perfect thanks.

For anyone else wondering, the key term for me was:

(iv) you may not use, reproduce, distribute, or display the Work with a press release that includes the distribution of the stand-alone image file to the media.

Yes, the keyword is “stand alone”. If that is asked for, you need to buy an extended license.
