License Policy

    This License Policy (“Policy”) defines the licensing framework under which buyers may use products purchased through Codoser.com (“Codoser,” “we,” “our,” “us”).

All products listed on the Platform are sold as digital goods and are governed by standardized Regular and Extended licenses. By purchasing, downloading, or using any product, you agree to abide by the terms of this License Policy in addition to the Terms of Use, Buyer Policy, Author Policy, and applicable intellectual property laws.

This Policy is intended to provide legal clarity and ensure fair, transparent licensing for both authors and buyers worldwide.

 

1. Scope of the Policy

1.1 This Policy applies to all digital products sold or distributed through Codoser.
1.2 It governs the license rights, restrictions, transfer conditions, termination, and enforcement mechanisms for both Regular and Extended licenses.
1.3 It applies globally and is designed to comply with international copyright laws, Indian IP law, and industry standards.

 

2. Nature of Licenses

2.1 When purchasing a product, buyers receive a license to use, not ownership of the product.
2.2 Intellectual property rights remain with the author (seller), and the buyer receives non-exclusive usage rights under the selected license type.
2.3 Licenses are legally binding agreements between the buyer, author, and platform.

 

3. License Types

3.1 Codoser offers two primary license types for digital products:

  • Regular License — for personal or limited commercial use.
  • Extended License — for wider commercial usage, redistribution, or monetized end products.
    3.2 Specific license availability may vary by product category or author preference.

 

4. Regular License — Overview

4.1 A Regular License allows the buyer to use the product in one end project, for personal use or limited commercial applications that do not involve reselling or redistribution.
4.2 The product may be modified, customized, or integrated into the end project as long as it complies with the restrictions set forth herein.
4.3 This license is non-exclusive, non-transferable, and perpetual unless terminated.

 

5. Regular License — Permitted Uses

5.1 Buyers may use the product to create one end product for:

  • Personal projects
  • Internal business use
  • A single client project (if delivered as a finished end product and not redistributed)
  • Websites, apps, or media where the product remains embedded and not extracted
    5.2 Buyers may modify the product for the end product, provided that derivative works do not infringe other rights.

 

6. Regular License — Restrictions

6.1 Under a Regular License, buyers may not:

  • Resell, redistribute, or sublicense the product “as is” or modified
  • Include the product in a template or item offered for sale
  • Make the product publicly available for download or sharing
  • Use the product in multiple end products or for multiple clients
  • Register IP rights for the product or derivatives as their own
    6.2 Any unauthorized use constitutes a license violation and may result in legal action.

 

7. Extended License — Overview

7.1 An Extended License provides broader rights, suitable for commercial applications, SaaS integrations, or redistribution scenarios.
7.2 It is still non-exclusive and does not transfer ownership.
7.3 It allows for one major end product, but that end product may be redistributed or monetized depending on terms.

 

8. Extended License — Permitted Uses

8.1 Buyers with an Extended License may:

  • Create one end product intended for sale, licensing, or distribution to multiple users
  • Integrate the product into commercial apps, SaaS platforms, or websites offered to end customers
  • Use the product in monetized media or products (e.g., templates, apps, software)
  • Modify and adapt the product to suit commercial needs
    8.2 Extended Licenses enable broader distribution but are still subject to other restrictions.

 

9. Extended License — Restrictions

9.1 Even under an Extended License, buyers may not:

  • Resell the original product as a stand-alone item
  • Misrepresent authorship or ownership of the product
  • Redistribute in a way that allows end users to extract and reuse the product independently
  • Use the product in multiple unrelated end products
  • Register trademarks or IP claims over the original work
    9.2 Extended Licenses do not grant exclusive rights or resale of source files “as is.”
