Intellectual Property, Artwork, & Resale Policy

This Intellectual Property, Artwork, and Resale Policy (“Policy”) constitutes a legally binding agreement between Aden + Louise (“we,” “us,” or “our”) and any customer, purchaser, or website visitor (“you”). By accessing this website or purchasing any product from us, you acknowledge and agree to the terms set forth below.

1. Ownership of Intellectual Property

All products, designs, artwork, illustrations, images, photographs, product descriptions, digital files, and other creative or proprietary content (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) are the exclusive property of Aden + Louise. 

No rights, title, or interest in our Intellectual Property is transferred to you by purchasing or accessing any of our products, whether digital or physical.

2. Prohibited Actions

You expressly agree that you shall NOT, under any circumstances:

1. Copy, reproduce, duplicate, alter, modify, create derivative works, or otherwise adapt any of our artwork, designs, products, or digital content.
2. Resell, distribute, or commercially exploit any physical or digital product produced by us without a legally binding contract or active participation in an approved Wholesale Program.
3. Use our Intellectual Property for any commercial purpose, including but not limited to:
• Selling similar or derivative products
• Using our images or artwork for branding
• Incorporating designs into your own merchandise
4. Upload, share, publish, or distribute our designs in any form, whether online, digitally, physically, or through print.
5. Claim ownership, authorship, or creation of our artwork, designs, or products.
6. Reverse engineer, extract, or attempt to isolate digital elements for reuse or reproduction.

Any violation of these prohibitions constitutes infringement and will result in immediate enforcement action.

3. Digital Products vs. Physical Products

3.1 Digital Products

Digital products (including downloadable files, graphics, artwork, templates, and print-ready designs) are licensed for personal use only, unless otherwise stated in writing.

You are strictly prohibited from:

• Republishing or distributing digital files
• Selling digital files or derivatives

Purchasing a digital product grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-commercial personal-use license only.

3.2 Physical Products

Physical products purchased from us are intended solely for personal use.
You may not resell our physical products in any retail, online, or commercial environment without prior written approval through a legally binding contract or wholesale program.

Personal resale (e.g., reselling as new, resale platforms, flea markets, craft fairs, boutiques, or online marketplaces) is not permitted unless authorized under Wholesale Terms.

Third-party marketplaces (including but not limited to Amazon, Etsy, Walmart, Facebook and Facebook Marketplace, TikTok, Instagram, eBay, etc.) are prohibited unless specifically authorized

 4. Resale Restrictions

You are strictly prohibited from reselling any item created, manufactured, designed, or produced by Aden + Louise unless:

• You have entered into a formally executed, legally binding resale contract with us; and/or
• You have been approved and accepted into our official Wholesale Program; and
• You remain in good standing under all applicable terms.

Unauthorized resale is considered commercial misuse and constitutes a violation of this Policy.
