Use is covered by the licence you choose, Standard or Unlimited, under the NYCC Asset Licence, which is accepted at checkout. It sets out permitted uses, restrictions and when attribution applies.
The Unlimited Licence provides expanded commercial rights beyond the Standard Licence: unlimited print runs, use in physical merchandise and products intended for resale, and use by authorized employees and contractors working on behalf of the purchasing individual or organization. Like the Standard Licence, it is perpetual, worldwide and non-exclusive. The asset still may not be sold, sub-licensed, transferred or redistributed as a standalone digital file or reusable stock asset, and copyright stays with NYCC. You choose the licence on the asset page, and each has its own price.
Yes. Raster assets come in Small, Medium and Large, from web use to full-resolution print, and each size has its own price for the Standard and the Unlimited licence. The asset page shows the sizes, their pixel dimensions and prices before you add one to your cart.
Vector assets are scalable, so there is no size to choose. Each asset page lists the formats included, such as SVG, EPS, AI or PDF, and you receive all of them with one purchase.
Once payment is confirmed, your files are in My account > Downloads and the licence record is in Licences. You can download the files again whenever you are signed in.
