7. License & Permitted Use of Digital Patterns
- License Grant. Upon full payment, Patternbox grants you a non‑exclusive, non‑transferable, perpetual license to use the Digital Pattern for personal use and limited commercial use (e.g., stitching the design on items you sell) up to 500 finished pieces per design, unless a different license tier is purchased.
