Manic Type End User Licence V4.0

By using, purchasing, downloading, or installing the Fonts, you agree to the terms of this licence agreement between you (the licensee) and Manic Type. Upon full payment, you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual right to use the Fonts as described. All other rights are reserved. This agreement takes effect upon download or use. If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the Fonts.

Definitions

Licensee Size: The total number of people (full-time, part-time, or temporary) working for your organization.

Designer: Any entity (such as a design agency, studio, or individual designer) providing services to the Licensee involving use of the Fonts.

Subcontractor: Any third party using the Fonts on behalf of the Licensee. If the Designer and Licensee are the same entity, the Designer is not a Subcontractor. Otherwise, they are.

Licence Scope

A Commercial licence permits use of the Fonts within your organization. Fonts are provided in otf (OpenType cff), woff, and woff2 formats. Alternative formats may be available upon request at Manic Type’s discretion. Unless otherwise specified, you may install the Fonts on any number of devices within your organization, use them on any websites you own, and embed them in static documents (such as PDFs), eBooks, digital products, applications, and other media produced by your organization. For websites, the Fonts may only be served using the CSS @font-face rule in woff or woff2 formats (otf is not permitted for web use). The licence cost is based on Licensee Size. If your organization grows, your licence remains valid provided the Licensee Size was accurately stated at purchase.

Purchase by Designer

A Designer may purchase a Commercial licence on behalf of the Licensee if: the Licensee and Licensee Size are correctly specified at checkout; the Licensee has read and agreed to this Agreement; and the Licensee has authorized the Designer to complete the purchase. The Designer may not charge the Licensee more than the actual licence cost.

Subcontractors

A Commercial licence permits any number of Subcontractors to use the Fonts on behalf of the Licensee, provided they agree to this Agreement. You may provide the Fonts to Subcontractors for this purpose. If a Subcontractor ceases work for the Licensee, they must delete all copies of the Fonts. Subcontractors may not use the Fonts for themselves or any other party. Unless specifically permitted by Manic Type, a Subcontractor may not be a subsidiary, parent, or affiliate of the Licensee.

Demo Licence

A Demo Font licence permits use of Demo versions of the Fonts (identified by ‘Demo’ in the filename or font data) for preview and evaluation only. Demo Fonts are available only in otf format. You may install them on any number of devices and use them for testing, evaluation, or noncommercial educational purposes (including student work, provided it is not monetized or performed for a third party). Demo Fonts may not be used on public websites, applications, or other software products.

General Restrictions

You must take reasonable precautions to prevent unlicensed third parties or the public from accessing the Fonts.

You may not:

• Decompile, modify, reverse-engineer, reformat, alter, edit, or create derivative works of the Fonts, or engage any third party to do so, without prior written permission from Manic Type;

• Upload the Fonts to public online storage platforms (such as GitHub or Amazon S3).

• Distribute (share, rent, lend, gift, sell, sublicense, etc.) the Fonts or any copy thereof to any unlicensed third party;

Warranty

Manic Type makes no warranties, express or implied, as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or otherwise. If you encounter an issue with the Fonts, Manic Type will make a good faith effort to provide a fix or replacement within 30 days of notification. If the issue cannot be reasonably remedied, Manic Type may offer a refund, at which point this Agreement will terminate. Manic Type is not liable for any direct, indirect, consequential, or incidental damages arising from use or inability to use the Fonts, even if notified in advance. In no event will Manic Type’s liability exceed the licence fee paid. You agree to indemnify and hold Manic Type harmless from any claims or damages resulting from your misuse of the Fonts or breach of this Agreement.

Legal

This Agreement is governed by the laws of Canada. It constitutes the entire agreement between you and Manic Type, superseding any prior discussions or agreements. No amendment, modification, or waiver is valid unless in writing and signed by Manic Type. If any part of this Agreement is found unenforceable, the remainder remains valid. Failure to enforce any provision does not waive the right to enforce it later. Section titles are for convenience only.
