Why This Matters
Paid advertising requires higher-value licensing due to extended reach, repeated impressions, and direct revenue impact. This structure ensures clarity around usage while supporting scalable, performance-driven campaigns.
Licensing Term & Renewal
Paid advertising licenses are valid for one year from the date of final image delivery. If you’d like to continue using any images beyond the initial term, licenses can be renewed at the then-current rates.
I’m always happy to discuss renewal options in advance to ensure uninterrupted use and help plan for upcoming campaigns.
