Safe reply structure

  1. Thank the customer for asking before using or sharing the file.
  2. Name the use case back in neutral words.
  3. Point to the published license, terms, or product page.
  4. Explain examples only as examples, not as a new permission grant.
  5. Ask them not to rely on support chat as legal advice.

Boundary: this page is copywriting help for sellers. It is not legal advice, trademark clearance, a license review service, or a custom permission workflow.
