Terms of Sale
These standalone terms apply whenever you purchase a digital photograph from Wide Frame Photography.
Effective 5 August 2026
1. Purchase And Agreement
- 1.1All purchases are final once payment is completed, except where a refund or other remedy is required by applicable law.
- 1.2By completing a purchase, you agree to these Terms of Sale, the Refund Policy, the Privacy Policy, and the Terms of Service.
- 1.3You are responsible for checking your selected photographs, licence, price, and contact email before paying.
2. What You Are Buying
- 2.1A purchase gives you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence for personal use. Copyright and ownership remain with Wide Frame Photography and the photographer.
- 2.2You may download, securely store, and print the purchased photograph for your own personal use.
- 2.3You may not sell, sublicense, redistribute, publish, upload, share, give away, or claim that you own, created, or photographed the image.
- 2.4You must not share a secure download link, access token, purchased file, or other means of obtaining the photograph. Contact us if you believe a link has been exposed.
3. No Alteration Or AI Use
- 3.1You may not edit, crop, recolour, retouch, composite, filter, or otherwise alter a purchased photograph unless we have given prior written permission.
- 3.2You may not remove, obscure, or change a watermark, copyright notice, metadata, signature, or other rights-management information.
- 3.3You may not use generative AI, image-to-image tools, photo-editing software, or any other process to regenerate, imitate, transform, or create a derivative work from a photograph.
4. Personal Use Only
- 4.1Personal-use purchases may not be used for advertising, marketing, sponsorship, merchandise, publication, promotion, fundraising, training data, or any other commercial or organisational purpose.
- 4.2This restriction applies to businesses, agencies, clubs, charities, schools, teams, event organisers, creators, and other for-profit or nonprofit organisations, whether the use is paid or unpaid.
- 4.3Posting a purchased photograph to a public or organisational social-media account is not permitted unless a separate written licence expressly allows it.
- 4.4Unauthorised commercial or organisational use may result in removal requests, suspension of download access, a demand for the applicable commercial licence fee, and recovery of losses and reasonable enforcement costs where permitted by law. Payment of a fee after unauthorised use does not itself grant a licence.
5. Bundles, Deals And Promotion Codes
- 5.1Bundle prices, automatic deals, sale prices, and promotion codes apply only when their displayed eligibility rules are met and while the offer remains active.
- 5.2Offers cannot be exchanged for cash, combined, transferred, or applied retrospectively unless the offer expressly says otherwise.
- 5.3If a bundle is changed, becomes ineligible, or a promotion code is invalid or expired, the checkout will recalculate the current price before payment.
- 5.4We may correct an obvious pricing or technical error before accepting payment. After payment, your receipt records the accepted items, discounts, currency, and total.
6. Unauthorised Access And Copyright
- 6.1Photographs displayed on the site are protected by copyright even when technical controls, previews, or watermarks can be bypassed.
- 6.2Accessing, copying, scraping, saving, or distributing a paid photograph without purchasing or obtaining written permission is prohibited.
- 6.3We may revoke access, preserve evidence, send platform takedown notices, and pursue injunctions, damages, account of profits, or other remedies available under law for infringement or misuse.
7. Problems With A Purchase
If you believe we have made a mistake or treated you unfairly, email legal@wideframe.photography with your order number, the email used at checkout, and a clear description of the issue. Nothing in these terms limits rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.
