Which licence do I need?
Not sure which option applies? Use this quick guide:
Editorial Use Licence – Use this if the image is illustrating information (for example a blog post, article, news story, or educational content) and not promoting a product, service, or brand.
Commercial Use Licence – The most common choice for businesses. Select this if the image will be used on a website, social media, marketing materials, menus, brochures, or other promotional content.
Rights‑Managed Licence – For advertising campaigns, regional or national
exposure, long‑term use, or when exclusivity is required.
Royalty‑Free Licence – Flexible ongoing use across platforms where exclusivity
is not required.
If you’re unsure, just get in touch and describe your intended use — we’re happy
to advise.
