Here you will find information on the types of license rights available for all of Maniki Photo Agency products and each of the license agreements pertaining to those products and rights.
TYPES OF RIGHTS AVAILABLE:
Rights-Managed (RM)
Rights-managed products are licensed on a use-by-use basis. The fee for using the product is calculated from several factors including size, placement, duration of use and geographic distribution. At the time you order an RM product, you will be asked to submit information that will specify the usage rights to be granted. You can use our price calculator or contact a sales representative to determine an exact price. Exclusive rights are available for purchase for some rights-managed products. All licenses of rights-managed products are subject to Maniki Photo Agency Editorial, Rights-Managed and Rights-Ready Image and Film License Agreement.
Rights-Ready (RR) - read more info -
Rights-ready products may be used for the particular use and end client specified at the time of licensing. When you order a rights-ready product, you will be asked to submit information that specifies how you intend to use the product, and the end client for whom it will be used. Pricing of rights-ready products is based solely on the use of the product that you select. You don't have to pay any additional royalties if you reuse rights-ready products for the same use and end client specified at the time of licensing. Licenses for rights-ready products are always non-exclusive. All licenses of rights-ready products are subject to Maniki Photo Agency Editorial, Rights-Managed and Rights-Ready Image and Film License Agreement.
Royalty-Free (RF) - read mor info -
Royalty-free products may be used by the licensee multiple times for multiple projects without incurring additional fees. Royalty-free pricing is based solely on the file size of the product the licensee needs and the number of people entitled to use it (maximum 10), not the specific use. You don't have to pay any additional royalties on a use-by-use basis. However, as with all Maniki Photo Agency licenses, the rights granted are non-transferable and are personal to the licensee. This means that if an RF product is used in a derivative work by the licensee for another person, the other person may not use the licensed product separately from the derivative work. Royalty-free licenses are always non-exclusive. All licenses of royalty-free products are subject to Maniki Photo Agency Royalty-Free Image and Film License Agreement.
Editorial Use
Editorial rights are licensed on a use-by-use basis. Use in an "editorial" manner means use relating to events that are newsworthy or of public interest. If you wish to use an image or film from our editorial collection for a non-editorial use, you must contact a sales representative to assist you. All licenses of editorial products are subject to Maniki Photo Agency Editorial, Rights-Managed and Rights-Ready Image and Film License Agreement.
"Comping" & Preview Use
Maniki Photo Agency permits certain electronic files of its products to be used free of charge (or in some cases for a minimal fee) for a limited duration, if they are used only for personal, noncommercial use and solely for test or sample purposes. These rights are governed by the Comping File and Film Preview License Agreement. Comping files may be used to take a closer look at a particular image or to create materials for proofing presentations to end clients. Comping files are not licensed for use in final projects, whether for internal or external use.
