Celtic3d is introducing updated licence terms to better serve both hobbyists and small businesses who use our downloadable 3D model files.
Effective from 10th April 2025, all new digital downloads will include a choice between two types of licence:
Personal Licence
This option is intended for private individuals and hobbyists. It allows the file to be 3D printed for personal use or as a gift. However, prints made under a personal licence may not be sold, and the original digital file may not be shared or redistributed.
Commercial Licence
This option is designed for makers and small businesses who wish to produce physical items for resale. It permits the manufacture and sale of printed products based on the downloaded file, but does not allow digital redistribution or modification for resale.
What About Previous Purchases?
If you purchased a downloadable file from Celtic3d before 10th April 2025, your original licence terms still apply. These new options only affect new purchases made on or after that date.
Why the Change?
We’ve introduced this new licensing structure to:
-
Continue to offer an affordable option for personal, non-commercial use
-
Support small businesses and home-based makers who want to resell printed products
-
Protect the originality and integrity of our 3D designs
If you have any questions about which licence is right for you, or if you need clarification about how you may use your files, please contact us.
