Usage Rules: zero doubts so you play fair

The Clear Rules to Create Full Throttle!

Hey Creator!

At Iconsax, we give you a visual arsenal and super broad usage rights because we want to see you succeed. To keep things flowing smoothly, we've created our own Iconsax licenses: one Free (zero cost, but with clear rules) and one Premium (with maximum flexibility). Here we present a Guide with the key points, without weird interpretations of generic licenses; we tell you straight up and unfiltered what you can and can't do with each one. Your ultimate cheat sheet to create without limits—smartly!

5. Burn This into your Brain! (For ALL Licenses)

Okay, to wrap it up and so you NEVER forget, here are two golden rules that apply to EVERYTHING Iconsax:

AUTHORSHIP ALWAYS ICONSAX'S: Let's make it CRYSTAL CLEAR! The icons are our creation(Iconsax Power!). The license gives you permission to USE THEM like crazy under the rules, but it DOES NOT give you ownership of the intellectual property or copyright! You can NEVER claim or imply you created them from scratch (not even with Premium, not even if modified!). Mutual respect, friend!
LICENSES ARE NON-TRANSFERABLE: Your license is YOURS and no one else's! Whether it's Free, individual Pro, or a Team seat, it's personal and non-transferable. Don't even think about selling, gifting, assigning, or transferring it to another person, client, or company! It's your superpower, you can't pass it on!
