Studio policies
Digital Product License
Personal use
Personal-use permissions must be stated in the real product listing. Personal purchases do not authorize commercial use, resale or redistribution of the digital file, or physical products for sale. Sample listings do not grant any license.
Commercial use license
A separately agreed paid commercial license may allow specifically identified business projects or marketing uses. It does not allow resale or redistribution of the original file as a standalone product, sublicensing or claiming ownership. Physical products for sale require an appropriate extended license. No license price is established here.
Extended or exclusive agreements
Negotiated agreements must identify permitted uses, distribution quantities, exclusivity, fees and any copyright transfer. Midnight Chrome Studio retains copyright where it owns the rights unless a separate signed copyright assignment explicitly transfers them. Purchasing artwork does not automatically transfer copyright.
Custom work
Usage rights are limited to the written commission agreement. A deposit before work, concept approval, included revision allowance, possible additional revision fees and final payment arrangements are agreed in writing before work begins. Final files are delivered after agreed payment is completed. A 50% deposit applies only when the individual project’s special terms are explicitly approved in writing; it is not a universal rate.
