Jan Fromm End User Trial License Agreement (“Trial-EULA”)

The following License Agreement governs the content and scope of the rights of use granted to you as the Licensee upon transfer of a trial license for fonts offered by Jan Fromm.

Preamble

Upon conclusion of a User Agreement for the free trial use of fonts, whether via the order form on the website https://janfromm.de or through individual negotiations with Jan Fromm, the following license terms shall also be deemed agreed between you and Jan Fromm. In all other respects, §§ 516 ff. BGB (German Civil Code) regarding donations shall apply.

You acknowledge that the font software and the visual font design created with it are subject to copyright protection. Jan Fromm remains the exclusive owner of all copyrights, licenses, trademarks, property rights, and other rights.

By granting a “trial license” through Jan Fromm, you acquire the non-exclusive right to use the font. You may use the font in desktop, web, and app environments, but only for testing and evaluation purposes (“trial use”). This includes, for example, use for client presentations and pitches.

Any public use of the font, in particular its final integration into projects (e.g., websites, print, apps), is prohibited. For all purposes beyond trial use of the font, you must purchase a full license.

You may use the font for testing and evaluation purposes until you have decided whether you wish to purchase a full license.

As soon as the (intended) use exceeds a trial use, you are required to purchase a full license. To do so, please contact info@janfromm.de or visit the online shop at https://janfromm.de.

Definitions

“Font” refers to the coded font software created by Jan Fromm, which can be used as a digital font on computers and other devices to display the font design (“font software”), as well as the “font design”, i.e., the generated visual representation of the respective font. The term “font” includes the accompanying documentation.

The term “Licensee” or „you“ refers to the person who has acquired the license to the font and uses or transfers it in accordance with this Licence Agreement. It is irrelevant whether the Licensee is a business or a consumer.

“Authorized User” is the person who derives their right of use from the Licensee in accordance with this Licence Agreement. This includes, but is not limited to, employees or contractors of the Licensee who work with the font for a limited period of time with the Licensee’s consent.

The term “third parties” refers to all persons who do not have any rights to use or sell the font. This includes, but is not limited to, end users of documents, websites, or apps created with the font.

Subject matter of the contract / Types of use

The trial license for trial use includes the non-exclusive right to one or more of the following types of use, whereby only trial use is permitted:

Desktop license

The font software is provided to you in OTF or TTF file formats. You may install the font software on computers and use it in accordance with this License Agreement for trial use.

During the trial use, you may use the font software to create the corresponding font design and, in particular, but not exclusively, to create printed documents, static images, animated graphics, visual identities, or books. You may convert the font design into outlines and modify these outlines, for example to create logos. You may embed the font software in static documents (e.g., PDF). For any type of use, you must ensure that the font is securely embedded and that third parties cannot access or extract the font.

You may only make the font software available to authorized users if and to the extent that it is used for trial use and if they are working on your behalf, agree to use the font software exclusively for the execution of the order you have placed, and agree to destroy all copies of the font software and its documentation, including all copies stored on storage media or hardware, upon completion of the order or the activity for you, and agree to this License Agreement.

Web license

The font software is provided to you in the file formats WOFF / WOFF 2. You may use the font software in principle to embed the font design in websites using @font-face and make it publicly available, but this only applies within the scope of trial use.

Only the WOFF or WOFF2 files provided are permitted for embedding via @font-face. The use of OTF or TTF files or their conversion is prohibited. For any type of use, you must ensure that the font software cannot be referenced and used by other websites (“hotlinking”).

App license

The font software is provided to you in OTF or TTF file formats. You may use the font software in principle to embed the font design in apps and make it publicly available, but this only applies within the scope of trial use.

The term “app” refers to native or web-based applications that run and function on mobile software platforms (such as iOS, Android) or desktop platforms (such as MacOS, Windows, or Linux).

For any type of use, you must ensure that the font software is securely embedded and that third parties cannot access or extract the font software.

Restrictions

You are not entitled to change, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or dismantle the source code of the font software, modify it, attempt to determine it in any other way or create derivative works from it, or use it in conjunction with software and/or hardware that creates derivative works from this font software.

You are not entitled to transfer the rights of use, copies or parts thereof acquired for the font to third parties, whether for payment or free of charge, unless expressly permitted by this Licence Agreement.

You are not entitled to distribute or make available the rights of use acquired for the font or any parts, modifications, conversions or other derivatives thereof via online services or in any other way.

You are not entitled to take any measures that directly or indirectly result in the font software becoming publicly available software or otherwise subject to an agreement on publicly available software.

You are not entitled to use the font for training models or tools for artificial intelligence. You must take the technical measures necessary to prevent this.

Furthermore, the restriction on exclusive use for testing and evaluation purposes set out in the preamble applies.

Warranty

No guarantees or warranty rights against Jan Fromm arise from this License Agreement. Any rights arising from the User Agreement or the law remain unaffected.

Final provisions

Jan Fromm has the right to terminate the User Agreement in accordance with § 530 BGB (German Civil Code). A serious breach of contract shall be deemed to have occurred in particular in the event of a gross violation of this License Agreement.

You warrant that you will inform all authorized users of the font about the scope of the acquired rights of use and the content of this Licence Agreement and ensure that they are observed and complied with accordingly.

Jan Fromm reserves the right to change this Licence Agreement for objective reasons (e.g., changes in law or case law, changes in economic conditions or the business model). You will be notified of any such changes in writing before they take effect. Unless you object in writing within four (4) weeks of notification, the changes shall be deemed accepted.

If individual provisions of this Licence Agreement are or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected. Invalid provisions shall be replaced by provisions that are suitable for achieving the desired economic purpose, taking into account the interests of both parties. The same applies to the filling of any gaps that may arise in this Agreement.

This Agreement is subject to the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, and shall be interpreted in accordance with German law. The English version of the text is for informational purposes only. In the event of any discrepancies between the German and English versions, the German version ( https://janfromm.de/license/trial-de/ ) shall prevail.

The place of jurisdiction is Berlin, Germany.
