II. END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT — DESKTOP

Article I — Preamble: common provisions to all End-User License Agreements entered into with COLORTYPE SARL

Section I.01 — General provisions
This Agreement governs the use of font software supplied by Colortype SARL, trading as Babelfont, with registered office at 43 rue du Moulin Vert, 75014 Paris (the “Licensor” or “Seller”).
This Agreement applies to all digital fonts presented on babelfont.com. None of these fonts are sold; they are licensed to the end user under the terms of this Agreement.
The purchase and use by the purchaser (hereinafter the “End User”) of a License for the fonts are subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
By paying for, downloading, installing and/or using the digital fonts governed by this Agreement, the End User acknowledges having read and accepted the terms of this License.
Section I.02 — Rights reserved by the Licensor
The fonts are protected by copyright. Colortype SARL is the exclusive owner of all intellectual property rights in the fonts, including copyright and trademark rights. This License grants only limited rights of use; no proprietary title is transferred to the purchaser. Any unauthorized use or infringement of these rights is prohibited and will render the purchaser contractually liable; the purchaser shall indemnify Colortype SARL for any such infringement.
This License is non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide and granted for an indefinite duration, subject to compliance with the contractual terms.

Article II — Rights granted to the End User under the Desktop License

Section II.01 — Permitted uses under the Desktop License
This Desktop License authorises the End User to:
a. Installation — controlled environment. Install the Font Software on a specified number of desktop and laptop computers within an environment controlled by the licensee. The Desktop License is issued for a defined number of workstations; any excess installation requires a license extension or additional licenses.
b. Creation of printed and digital visual content. Use the Font Software to create documents, graphic designs, presentations, infographics, raster or vector images for online display (JPEG, PNG, SVG, etc.), logos (including modifications to glyphs), and other visual projects intended for distributable media. This includes commercial prints such as brochures, posters and other commercial materials.
c. Embedding in documents and applications (static embedding). Embed the Font Software in electronic documents (e.g., PDF), digital presentations or software applications for internal or external use provided that the Font Software is embedded statically and cannot be extracted or reused independently. Embedding is permitted for interactive documents (PDFs, presentations) made available online only where the font is protected against extraction (read-only embedding).
Section II.02 — Restrictions under the Desktop License
Without limitation, under the Desktop License the End User is not authorised to:
a. Unauthorized distribution and transfer. Redistribute, resell, assign or transfer the Font Software or any copy thereof to third parties, whether gratuitously or for consideration. Licensed Desktop users shall not transmit the raw font files to third parties as part of documents. Any document supplied to a third party must contain the font outlines (converted to curves) or be rasterised (PNG, JPG, TIFF) or saved in a secured PDF format; it must not permit extraction or reuse of the font software. Each third party (agency, freelance designer, etc.) must obtain its own license for its use.
b. Modification and derivative works. Modify, decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse-engineer the Font Software to create new font versions, except with the prior written consent of Colortype SARL.
c. Limited to purchased styles. The License covers only the font styles/weights expressly included in your purchase. Any additional styles (Italic, Bold, Condensed, etc.) require a supplemental license or upgrade.
d. Embedding and distribution beyond read-only/subset use. Embedding of the full, editable Font Software into electronic publications, mobile applications, streaming services, web pages or devices is permitted only as a secure sub-set (i.e., subset embedding) where the delivered font cannot be extracted, edited or reused (read-only). Any recipient of an electronic document that would allow text editing with the licensed font must be a user within the licensed unit.
Section II.03 — Interpretative clarifications and points of attention
The following clarifications apply to interpretation of the contract terms:
a. Duration. The Desktop License is granted perpetually, provided that the license terms continue to be complied with.
b. Number of users per license purchased. For example, a 5-user license authorises installation and use of the Font Software by up to five (5) distinct persons.
c. External contractors. External service providers (freelancers, agencies) must acquire their own license when required to work on your projects.
d. Liability for breaches. You are responsible for ensuring compliance with the License terms by all users under your authority. Any breach committed by an internal user will be deemed a breach by the licensee.
e. Retention on employee devices. In the event of personnel changes (e.g., employee departure), you must ensure that font files are removed from the departing employee’s devices and any personal storage.
f. Notification to the Licensor. You must promptly notify Babelfont (Colortype SARL) in the event of any unauthorised access or use of the Font Software by unlicensed third parties.
g. Copyright notice. Backup copies must include the applicable copyright, trademark and accompanying notices. You are responsible for any loss or unauthorised use.
h. Limitation of permitted uses. This License covers only the uses listed above. Any other use (including but not limited to server embedding, OEM/FEO, broad redistribution, mass-printing quotas, or application embedding) requires a separate license.
i. Scope of the License (styles and weights). This License covers only the specific styles (weights and variants) expressly included in your purchase. The addition of variants requires an upgrade or an additional purchase.

Article III — End-User obligations
The End User undertakes to take all reasonable measures to prevent any unauthorised access to the licensed Font Software (or any copy thereof) delivered under this End-User License. The End User shall inform its employees and any persons granted access to the Font Software of their obligation to comply strictly with the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement. Violation of any provision hereof may give rise to termination by the Licensor.

Article IV — Termination

In the event of termination the End User shall return to Colortype SARL the digital font files, their components and any related digital data, and shall destroy all copies in its possession within seven (7) days from the date of termination, thereby prohibiting any further use. At Colortype SARL’s request, the End User shall provide written confirmation that such destruction has taken place.
Notwithstanding termination, Colortype SARL expressly reserves the right to pursue any other remedies available (including injunctive relief, claims for damages, etc.).
Upon termination, the End User must permanently delete all copies of the Font Software and provide a written declaration certifying such deletion.
