The following is applicable to all website or print designs that include stock images provided by Logomotion: Logomotion purchases stock images that are provided with either a standard or extended license agreement. This license agreement gives Logomotion the authority to use the image without infringing on any copyright, moral right, trademark or other intellectual property right or violate any right of privacy or publicity.

Should the client transfer the website to another designer, or hosting provider, or cease to continue using the services of Logomotion for any reason, the client will be required to purchase all stock images with the license agreement.
A standard license is generally included in the purchase price of most stock images giving the owner the right to use the image on the web only. Should any image be required for printing, a higher resolution image will need to be purchased at an additional cost, and in some cases the extended license will need to be purchased which gives authority to print large quantities.
