ImageHive Terms of Service

1. The basics

   Welcome to ImageHive! ImageHive is a vibrant community of creatives sharing royalty-free content. These Terms of Service ("Terms") apply to the ImageHive.com website, related websites, software, mobile apps, plug-ins and other ImageHive-operated services (collectively, the "Service(s)").

   These Terms govern the relationship between ImageHive, a Canva Germany GmbH brand ("we", "our" or "ImageHive") and any user of the Service ("you", "your" or "User"), including in certain circumstances, the relationship between Users. By using the Service (including by downloading and using Content from the Service, or contributing Content or Communications to the Service):

   • you agree that you are entering into these Terms with us which will become a legally binding agreement between you and us; and
   • you represent and warrant that you have the full right, power and authority to agree to and be bound by these Terms and to fully perform all of your obligations listed in these Terms.

   If you don’t agree to these Terms, please don’t use the Service.

   Children may not access or use the Service unless their use is directly authorized by their parent, guardian or another authorized adult who agrees to be bound by these Terms. For the purposes of these Terms, a child is a person under the age of 13 (or the minimum legal age required to provide consent for processing of personal data in the country where the child is located, noting 16 is the minimum legal age in Germany).

   We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify these Terms at any time, including the right to cancel or change the licenses granted by these Terms. If we do this, we will post the most current version of these Terms on this page. We will seek to provide you with reasonable notice of any change to the Terms that, in our sole determination, materially adversely affect your rights or your use of the Service. We may provide you with this notice via the Service and/or by direct message on the Service and/or by posting on ImageHive’s public forum. By continuing to use the Service after any revised Terms become effective, you agree to be bound by the new Terms.

2. Content.

   In these Terms when we refer to "Content" we are referring to the content which is available on the Services, but excluding any third party paid advertising or sponsored content (over which ImageHive has no control and we do not grant any license). Content includes, but isn’t limited to the following items:

   • "Images", which means photographs, vector graphics, drawings and illustrations.
   • "Videos", which means moving images, animations, film footage and other audio-visual representations and content.
   • "Audio", which means music, sounds, sound effects and other audio representations and content.
   • "Other Media", which means any other media or content which is visual or audio in nature, or a combination of these.

3. Communications.

   ImageHive also makes available various functionality across the Service which allows you to interact and communicate with the Service and with other Users, for example by:

   • selecting a username, uploading a profile photo and creating a profile page;
   • making contributions in our ImageHive forum and discussion rooms;
   • leaving comments on any Content or blog articles;
   • sending messages to other users via our messaging functionality; and/or
   • any other communications submitted by you through the Service, together, “Communication(s)”.

4. CC0 License

   Some of the Content made available for download on the Service is subject to and licensed under the Creative Commons Zero (CC0) license ("CC0 Content"). CC0 Content on the Service is any content which lists a "Published date" prior to January 9, 2019.
