# Art License

**Version française : [Licence d'œuvre](/docs/legal/fr/licence).**

Last updated **October 20, 2026**.

## What you own

When you hold an Output, you **own the token**: the on-chain record that this Output is yours, which you can keep,
send or sell. The **artist keeps the copyright** in the art. This license is what lets you enjoy the art you own.

## What you may do

For as long as you hold the Output, the artist grants you a free, worldwide license to:

- **display** the art, privately or publicly, on any screen, in any gallery, online or off;
- **share** images and recordings of it, credited to the artist and the Project;
- **print** it for yourself;
- use it as your **wallpaper, avatar or profile picture**;
- **sell or give away** the Output; the license moves with it to the next owner.

## What you may not do

- Use the art **commercially** (merchandise, ads, products, paid prints) without the artist's permission.
- Change the art and present the result as the artist's work, or present the art as your own.
- Use the art in anything hateful or illegal.

Artists can grant more than this, publicly, for their own Projects. They can never grant less.

## Stickers, keychains and $PRICE

Stickers, keychains and $PRICE are made by PD, so PD grants the same license for them: own them, display them, share
them, send or sell them. Commercial use needs PD's permission. PD's name and per-mille logo stay PD's.

## When you no longer hold it

When an Output leaves your wallet, your license goes with it. Prints and posts you made while you held it can stay up.
