* In the footer or sidebar of a web page
* On-screen or About panel during a live broadcast
If you’d rather omit the credit line, please contact us and we’ll find a solution.
Uses Requiring Prior Agreement
If you plan to use the icons in content that is behind a paywall, requires a purchase, or includes interactive features, a separate written agreement is required. This applies to, but is not limited to:
* Paid newsletters or subscription websites
* Paid online courses or private coaching materials
* Print or digital books, paid study guides, or magazines
* Mobile or desktop apps, games, or interactive websites
* Merchandise such as clothing, posters, or physical teaching aids
* Any other use where access is subject to a fee, one-time purchase, or that restricts full access
For these types of uses, please contact us. We are open to collaboration and are confident we can find a suitable agreement for your project.
Royalty Program For Content Creators
If you’re a chess content creator and would like to monetize your use of the icons, please contact us. We can create a co-branded version of our Chess With Cards game that features your brand alongside the icons, and pay you royalties on every copy sold.
