You acknowledge and agree that Creator (or, as applicable, its licensors) owns all legal right, title and interest in and to the Art, and all intellectual property rights therein.

Subject to your continued compliance with the terms of this License, Creator grants you a worldwide, exclusive, transferable license to the Collector to use and display the Art and/or its associated NFT, along with any Extensions that you choose to create or use, solely for the following purposes:
for your own personal, non-commercial use;

modify the Art for your Purchased NFT in any way, including, without limitation, the shapes, designs, drawings, attributes, or color schemes (your use of Extensions will not constitute a prohibited modification hereunder);
use the Art for your Purchased NFTs to advertise, market, or sell any third party product or service;
use the Art for your Purchased NFTs in connection with images, videos, or other forms of media that depict hatred, intolerance, violence, cruelty, or anything else that could reasonably be found to constitute hate speech or otherwise infringe upon the rights of others;
use the Art for your Purchased NFTs in movies, videos, or any other forms of media, unless it is solely for your own personal, non-commercial use;
