6. Termination

All Stock Media on Symzio is protected by United States and international copyright laws and treaties. Symzio's various Contributors own all rights, interests and title, including the copyrights, in and to the Stock Media. Symzio's Contributors reserve all rights in and to the Stock Media not expressly granted to you by the terms of this License Agreement. Your rights to use any Stock Media are subject to this License Agreement and are conditioned upon your payment to Symzio and its Contributors for your use of the Stock Media.

If you fail to make any payment to Symzio when due, or if any check is dishonoured or credit card charge refused or charged back, your account will be deemed delinquent. You still have the right to use any Stock Media downloaded under a previous, valid payment, but your right to use any Stock Media downloaded as part of an invalid transaction shall automatically terminate unless all payments together with any interest thereon and Symzio’s costs of collection, bank charges and credit card processing fees are received by Symzio no later than fifteen (15) days from the date that your account became delinquent.

You understand and agree that Symzio and its Contributors may, in their sole discretion:

• monitor anything you download from or upload to Symzio, as frequently Symzio or its Contributors in their sole discretion determine, for any violation of this License Agreement;
• retain for an indefinite period details of any Stock Media that you have downloaded;
• ​track any abuse of your username and password in connection with the Service or in connection with this License Agreement;
• suspend and/or terminate your account, without notice, if they find what Symzio or its Contributors believe to be any violation of this License Agreement and/or any abuse of your username and password (please see our Terms of Use). If your account is terminated for any violation of this License Agreement and/or any abuse of a username or password, you lose all rights to Stock Media, must immediately delete all Stock Media acquired from Symzio or its Contributors, and forfeit all fees paid.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, our Contributors hereby grant to you a perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable worldwide license to use the Stock Media in one project for a Permitted Use (as defined below). Unless the activity or use is a Permitted Use, you cannot do it. All other rights in and to the Stock Media, including, without limitation, all copyright and other Intellectual Property Rights relating to the Stock Media, are retained by Symzio's Contributors as the case may be.

One project means one end product with one purpose. Here are some examples:

• If you use the media in a blog post, you can use the media for the purpose of complimenting the post as well as promoting it, on or off the original site. You cannot, however, use the same media for another blog post even if it is on the same website.
• If you use the media for the purpose of enhancing your social media profile, you would only need one license to create one social media profile image which can then be used on all your social media profiles. You cannot, however, create multiple different profile images using the same media.
• If you were to use the media in a brochure, you can use the media multiple times within the same brochure to promote the same idea.
• If you were to use the media in a project or publication, you may use resized versions of the media to refer to the area where the media's main use exists.
• If the media is used in a blog post or article, the media can be used to promote that blog post or article. It cannot, however, be used to promote the website or account that hosts the blog post or article as that would constitute a different purpose.
• If you create a composite image using two One Time Use images, you may use the composite image within the terms of the One Time Use License. You may not, however, construct another composite image using the same One Time Use images, even if its intended use is for the original purpose as this would constitute two end products.
• If you wish to use the media for multiple purposes or multiple end products, you may purchase additional One Time Use Licenses.

If your intended use remains ambiguous with relation to the One Time Use License, please contact us for clarification.

You acknowledge and understand that all Stock Media available on Symzio is provided by Contributors that operate as independent entities that permit Symzio to display their Stock Media for the purpose of licencing Stock Media to customers. All Stock Media, including warrants, releases, keywords, titles and tags, are provided to Symzio by Contributors and Symzio makes no warrant as to the accuracy of said tagging or Stock Media.

You further acknowledge that all licensing agreements entered into as a result of downloading Stock Media from Symzio are between you and the Contributor that created it, and that Symzio acts solely as an aggregator for Stock Media that provides a portal as a service to facilitate an exchange of goods and/or services between you and the Contributor.

You also acknowledge that all Stock Media available on Symzio is provided by Contributors that confirm to be the proper copyright holders of said Stock Media.

​You acknowledge that no releases are generally obtained for any Stock Media that is identified as “Editorial Use Only” and that some jurisdictions provide legal protection against a person’s image, likeness or property being used for commercial purposes when they have not provided a release. For Stock Media identified as “Editorial Use Only”, Symzio does not grant any right nor make any warranty with regard to the use of names, people, trademarks, trade dress, logos, registered, designs or works of art or architecture depicted therein. In such cases, you shall be solely responsible for determining whether release(s) is/are required in connection with any proposed use of the Stock Media identified as “Editorial Use Only”, and shall be responsible for obtaining such release(s).
