Free license wording note

Ask for use case without sensitive data

A plain-language support pattern for license use case request copy. Adapt it to your actual product terms and avoid granting rights that are not already in your published policy.

Use case

A customer asks what the license means and the store needs a plain-language reply that points to actual terms.

Rule

Do not imply trademark, tax, platform, or legal clearance. Use plain explanations and link the license text. Do not rewrite the license inside a support reply.

Not a legal service

This is a self-serve copy resource for support wording. It does not review contracts, clear trademarks, or create custom license permissions.

Draft reply

Subject: About using this digital product Hi [name], Thanks for asking about [use case]. The published license and terms are the source of truth for how this digital product can be used. In plain language, the relevant boundary is: [brief policy summary]. This email is only a support explanation and does not add permissions beyond the published terms. Before sharing, reselling, transferring, or using the file in a paid client or commercial context, please review the full terms linked on our site. Thanks, [store name]

Customize safely

Replace [use case] with the customer wording, then summarize only what your published policy already says.

Privacy boundary

Do not ask for passwords, full card numbers, IDs, private client files, account access, or remote access to understand the question.

Good CTA

Link to Terms, Acceptable Use, Delivery & Support, or the product preview rather than a checkout, waitlist, or hands-on service offer.

Checklist

  • Does it avoid promising commercial rights unless published?
  • Does it avoid resale, redistribution, or transfer permission unless published?
