IMAGE LICENSING
AU STOCK IMAGES is a Rights Managed (RM) stock photo library.
What is Rights Managed (RM) image licensing?
Rights Managed (RM) refers to a copyright license which, if purchased by a user, allows the one-time use of the image as specified by the license. If the user wants to use the image for other uses, an additional license needs to be purchased. RM licences can be provided on a non-exclusive or exclusive basis. Exclusive usage rights of a RM image is an additional cost on top of the image usage licence fee. RM is one of the two most common licence types, together with Royalty Free (RF) image usage.
Royalty Free (RF) image usage refers to the right to use copyright material or intellectual property without the need to pay royalties or licence fees for each usage, beyond the one off purchase license fee, enabling the end user to use the image as many times as they like without paying further fees.
At this stage there are no Royalty Free (RF) images available from AU STOCK IMAGES.
