One license.
No fine-print games.
Every clip on this site is licensed the same way: royalty-free, commercial and editorial use, one flat price. You buy it once, you can use it in your work forever. Here is the whole deal in plain English, followed by the formal terms.
What you can do
- Commercial work: ads, promos, brand films, corporate videos, real estate marketing, music videos, apps, and websites.
- Editorial work: news, documentaries, educational content, and commentary.
- Client projects: use licensed clips in work you produce and deliver to your clients.
- Broadcast and streaming: TV, film, YouTube, and social platforms, with unlimited views and no expiration.
- Edit freely: cut, grade, crop, speed-ramp, and composite the footage however your project needs.
What you can't do
- Resell or redistribute the clip on its own, whether as stock footage, in a template, in an asset pack, or anywhere the footage itself is the product.
- Share the master file outside your production team or your client's project.
- Claim ownership or authorship of the footage, or register it with any content-ID system.
- Use it in trademarks or logos, or in content that is defamatory, unlawful, or misleading about the people or places shown.
Formal terms
1. Grant. Upon purchase, Drone Lawrence LLC ("Licensor") grants you ("Licensee") a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use the purchased video file (the "Clip") in unlimited end products created by you or on behalf of a single client per project.
2. Single-seat. This license covers one individual or organization as Licensee. Team members working on the same production may access the Clip; it may not be pooled into a shared library across unrelated productions or organizations.
3. Editorial content. Some clips depict people, private property, or trademarks for which no release has been obtained. Such clips are licensed for editorial and general commercial use, but Licensee is responsible for determining whether their specific use requires additional clearances.
4. Ownership. The Clip remains the intellectual property of Licensor. This is a license, not a sale of the underlying copyright.
5. Prohibited uses. No redistribution or resale of the Clip as footage; no use in machine-learning training datasets; no unlawful, defamatory, or pornographic use; no use implying endorsement by identifiable people or organizations shown.
6. Warranty and liability. The Clip is provided "as is." Licensor's total liability is limited to the amount paid for the license.
7. Termination. This license terminates automatically if Licensee breaches these terms. Sections 4 through 6 survive termination.
8. Governing law. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Kansas, USA.
