  • Premium Membership Plan: access unlimited downloads of both our Premium and Free Images for use with our Commercial License.
• 4.3.   Choose our Monthly or Yearly subscriptions
  • Monthly subscription: If you choose a monthly Membership subscription you will have a monthly contract which will automatically renew each month. We will automatically charge you on each monthly renewal date (Renewal Date). Your Membership will continue to automatically renew unless either you or we choose to cancel it. There is no commitment beyond your current monthly contract period. You can cancel your Membership Plan at any time, if you do so your Membership will continue until your renewal date and you will not be charged again.
  • Yearly subscription: If you choose a yearly Membership subscription you will benefit from a lower monthly equivalent price, but you will be charged a fee for the full year when you sign up and again at each annual renewal (Renewal Date). You agree to a 12 month contract which will automatically renew annually. Your Membership will continue to automatically renew unless either you or we choose to cancel it. You can cancel your Membership Plan at any time, if you do so your Membership will continue until the end of your 12 month contract period and you will not be charged again.
  • If your Renewal Date is on the 29^th, 30^th, or 31^st day of a month, and the current month does not have the equivalent day then your plan will renew on the last day of the current month.
• 4.4.   Single user access
  • When you purchase a Membership Plan this gives permission for one named person (User) to use our Services and images. You will need to choose a unique username and password in order to access your Membership Services. You must ensure these are kept confidential and not shared with anyone else. If you know or suspect that someone else is using your account details you must promptly notify us at contact@rawpixel.com.
  • If you would like someone else, other Users, to be able to access our Website to use our Services or images they will need to sign up with a separate Membership Plan. This Membership account will be managed individually and not linked to any other account as, at present, we are not able to offer any account linking.
• 4.5.   You can upload a User profile image to your account on our Website. If you choose to do this you agree to you give us the necessary permissions to install the image in your User profile and you warrant that you are entitled to use the image for this purpose and that the image meets our Standards.
• 4.6.   Lifetime Membership Plans - if you have a Lifetime Membership Plan you can see the additional specific terms for your membership here.

5.   How to purchase and switch plans

• 5.1.   To sign up for one of our Membership Plans go to our Membership Plans page and complete your order. Once you have completed your order and we have received your payment (if applicable) we will email you to confirm our acceptance. At this point your Membership contract between you and us will start. If we are unable for any reason to accept your Membership order, we will inform you of this in writing and will not charge you.
• 5.2.   When and how you must pay Fees. The Fees you pay will vary depending on which Membership Plan and subscription period you choose. Any VAT or local taxes that are applicable to your country/Territory will be added to the Fee and shown at the checkout. We accept payment of Fees only with Visa, MasterCard and American Express credit and debit cards through our Website by way of direct debit. We use Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., a payment service provider, to enable our customers to make payments (and we reserve the right to use other payment providers in the future). Monthly/annual direct debit payments will be taken on a rolling monthly/annual basis on the start date and each Renewal Date, until termination of the Membership Plan.
• 5.3.   Fees are calculated and collected in US dollars. If you pay with an account card that is not in USD the amount you pay will depend on fluctuations in exchange rates.
• 5.4.   We may increase the Fees by giving you at least one calendar month’s notice of the revised Fees. If you do not want to pay these revised Fees you can terminate the Membership contract by giving us written notice at any time prior to the revised Fees becoming payable.
• 5.5.   We have appointed Taxamo CheckoutCo Ltd (Taxamo) to enable us to meet complex international taxation requirements. This means that in some countries Taxamo will be acting on our behalf but in its own name as a "commissionaire" (Commissionaire). To enable Taxamo to provide this service to us we have included a link to Taxamo at the checkout on our Website which means that if you enter your details into our checkout you will be sharing this data with Taxamo. Taxamo is a company incorporated in an EU member country and it will hold all of your data within the EU.
• 5.6.   If Taxamo is acting as a Commissionaire for the sale of a Membership to you, it means that you will in legal terms be purchasing the membership from Taxamo. If so, we will inform you by adding the Taxamo name at the bottom of the checkout page, and the invoice you receive will be from Taxamo. However, this is the only difference you will experience. rawpixel will still be providing you with the Membership, and if you have any questions or problems with our Services you should contact us directly.
• 5.7.   You can upgrade or downgrade your Membership Plan by selecting the ‘Change Plan’ option in your Account page.
  • If you switch from a Free to a Premium Membership Plan we will move you to your new Plan straight away, the new Fees will be charged at the time of the switch and this will become your new Renewal Date.
  • If you switch from a Premium Membership Plan to a Free Membership we will move you to the Free Plan on your next Renewal Date. We will not charge you any Fees on your Renewal Date nor will you receive any refund of Fees paid. Once you are moved to the Free Membership Plan you will still have access to any Premium Images you downloaded on your Premium Membership plan.
  • If you switch from a Monthly Subscription to a Yearly Subscription we will switch you to your yearly plan on your next Renewal Date when you will be charged the yearly membership fee.
  • If you switch from a Yearly Subscription to a Monthly Subscription we will switch you to your monthly plan at the end of the 12 month contract, when you will be charged the new monthly membership fee.

6.   How to end your Membership

• 6.1.   If you have a Free Membership Plan you may end your Membership at any time by selecting “Cancel Account”. Your Membership will cease immediately and your account will be deleted.
• 6.2.   If you have a Premium Membership Plan and wish to end your Membership because you no longer need the Membership Plan you can do this at any time by selecting the 'Cancel Premium Plan' option in your Membership Account. Your Membership will end on your next Renewal Date and you will be moved to our Free Membership Plan. You will not be entitled to any refund of Fees already paid.
• 6.3.   If you are a personal user and have purchased a Premium Membership Plan within the last 14 days and you have not downloaded any Premium Images you can cancel your Premium Membership Plan and receive a full refund of the Membership Fees you have paid. To do this you must send us a request via email to contact@rawpixel.com within the 14 days. We will send any refund due to you within 14 days of receiving your request.
• In accordance with the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, if you download any Premium Images during the 14 day cancellation period you acknowledge that you consent to us providing you with Services during the cancellation period and if you do decide to exercise your right to cancel you must pay for the Services received. In this situation we will cancel your Membership Plan but you will not be entitled to any refund of the Fees paid.
• 6.4.   If you have a Premium Membership Plan and wish to end your Membership because of our act or fault (for a reason listed in clause 9.1 or you have another legal right to do so), you must notify us via email to contact@rawpixel.com. If we agree the reason is covered here we will end your Membership and refund you for any Services which you paid for but have not been provided. Any refund due will be calculated based on the proportion of time that is remaining on your current Membership contract, so long as you have downloaded less than 10 Premium Images in the monthly period prior to the date of termination if on a monthly plan, or an average of less than 10 images per month prior to the date of termination if on a yearly plan. If you have downloaded more images than the limits stated here no refund will be due.

7.   Our right to end your Membership

• 7.1.   If you breach these Terms or our Image License (including our Standards) we may end your Membership on giving you written notice. If you have a Premium Membership Plan and have downloaded any images since your last renewal date you will not be entitled to any refund. If you have not downloaded any images in this period we will calculate any refund based on the proportion of time that is left on your current Membership contract. We may deduct from any refund due, or charge you, the costs we will incur as a result of you breaking our Terms.
• 7.2.   We may withdraw our Services at any time. We may write to you to let you know that we are going to stop providing the Services. We will let you know at least 7 days in advance of our stopping the supply of Services and will refund any sums you have paid in advance, in accordance with clause 6.4, for Services which will not be provided.

8.   Public Domain Images

• 8.1.   Out of Copyright Images
  • We have a large collection of images available in our Free Image Collection which we believe are no longer subject to copyright protection either because their copyright has expired (in most countries, including the countries of the EU, USA, and Canada (Approved Territories)) or the author of the image has allowed us to distribute the image with no license restrictions (Public Domain Images).
  • Because these images are not protected by copyright (in most countries) you can download and use these images without having to obtain consent from the original copyright owner, and where we are permitted to do so we grant you permission to use these images without copyright restriction.
  • These Public Domain Images are clearly labelled as ‘Free Public Domain CC0 Image’ and are available with the Creative Commons 0 license.
  • We have researched the history of these images and we are confident that in most countries and in particular the Approved Territories they can be copied, used and shared without any need to obtain further consent. However, they may still be in copyright in a small number of countries and/or other rights may exist, therefore it may be necessary for you to obtain consent for their use.
• 8.2.   U.S Government Public Domain Images
  • Our Public Domain Image collection also includes images from the U.S. Government which we believe are free from copyright, these are available for you to use in accordance with the U.S. Government rules, these images are clearly labelled as ‘Free Public Domain U.S. Government Image’.
• 8.3.   Other restrictions with Public Domain Images
  • We do not hold any property or model releases for Public Domain images. Where we believe there might be other rights within an image that prevents it being suitable for commercial use we have labelled this as “Editorial use only”.
  • Whilst we have only selected Public Domain Images that we believe are suitable for the majority of people to use, and have used our judgement to label images only suitable for editorial use, it is your responsibility to check that your use of the image is lawful.
  • We give no warranties or assurances that your use of Public Domain Images will be lawful and if you are seeking to access and use any Public Domain Images you do so at your own risk. You should carry out independent checks to ascertain whether any proposed use of Public Domain Images is lawful in the countries in respect of which you anticipate using them, and obtain any necessary permissions or clearances. We are not liable for any claims or costs arising from such use.

Referral Reward Scheme Terms and Conditions

• 1.   When you are given your Membership we will also give you a unique referral code (Referral Link) and you can share that Referral Link with your friends, family and others to encourage others to take out a Membership.
• 2.   For each person who signs up for a rawpixel.com Membership Plan using your Referral Link (New Member) and validates their email address at a time when you are a Member (subject to clause 6 of these Terms and Conditions) you will receive one (1) referral credit. When you have received ten (10) referral credits you will be entitled to receive free of charge twelve (12) months Premium Plan Membership.
• 3.   When you have received 10 referral credits a Free Premium Membership activation button will show in your Account page. If you are currently on a Free Membership plan you can simply click on this button to activate your Free Premium Membership Plan. If you are currently on a Premium Membership Plan you must cancel your current plan (using the Cancel Plan link on your Account page) before you can activate your Free Premium Membership Plan. If you cancel your current Premium Membership Plan your current plan will continue until the end of its current Renewal Period. Once your current plan has ended you will be able to use the Start your free premium membership button to start your free premium membership.
• 4.   At the end of your 12 months Free Premium Membership, your membership plan will automatically change to our Free Membership Plan. If you would like to continue to download premium images after this date you will need to sign up to one of our paid membership plans.
• 5.   At any time during your 12 months Free Premium Membership you can choose to purchase a paid membership plan. If you do this, your 12 months Free Premium Membership will be cancelled and you will immediately be charged for the new membership plan.
• 6.   The maximum number of referral credits you can have at any time is 10. If someone signs up to a new rawpixel Membership Plan using your referral link but you already have 10 referral credits you will not receive a referral credit for this sign up. Once you have been rewarded 10 referral credits your balance will remain at 10 credits until you have activated your 12 months Free Premium Membership and the 12 month term has completed. At the end of the 12 months Free Premium Membership term your referral credits will be reset to zero (0) and you can then earn new referral credits.
• 7.   You will be able to see at any time via your Account page how many referral credits (stars) you have received.
• 8.   If, at any time, it is discovered that a fake/duplicate account has been set up (or fake details have been used to set up an account) as part of the referral scheme, ALL referral credits will be removed from that account and any pending or active Free Premium Membership Plans will be immediately withdrawn/cancelled. The user who set up the fake account/duplicate account will also be in breach of our User Terms, and their membership may be terminated.
• 9.   This Referral Reward Scheme is a Promotional Offer that is separate to our User Terms. This Promotional Offer may be withdrawn at any time, for any reason, without notice, always provided that any Free Premium Membership that has been accrued in your Account, and not used, up to that point will be honoured. At the point this Promotion Offer is withdrawn, your referral links will remain valid, however you will no longer earn referral credits for anyone who uses your referral link to sign up for a membership plan. Therefore, if at the time this Referral Reward Scheme is withdrawn you have not been rewarded 10 referral credits your existing credit balance will be cancelled and you will not be entitled to claim 12 months Free Premium Membership. If however, at the time this Referral Reward Scheme is withdrawn you have a referral credit balance of 10 you will, within a specified time limit, still be entitled to activate your 12 months Free Premium Membership.
