LICENCE WORDING YOU CAN ADAPT
From "Digital Products — Basics", chapter 5
================================================================

When someone buys your digital product, they are not buying the copyright —
they are buying a LICENCE to use it, on terms you set. If you say nothing,
you invite the two disputes that cost sellers the most: a buyer who resells
your file, and a buyer who used it for a client and now wants to know if
that was allowed.

Below are two licences in plain English. Pick the one that fits the product,
paste it into the file itself and onto the listing, and change the bracketed
parts. ⚠️ This is adaptable wording to start from, not legal advice — for a
high-value product or a specific country's rules, have a professional check it.


PERSONAL-USE LICENCE  (the default for most first products)
----------------------------------------------------------------

  Licence for [PRODUCT NAME]

  You are licensed to use this file for your own personal and business use.
  You may adapt it and use it as many times as you like for yourself.

  You may NOT resell, share, give away, sub-license or redistribute the file
  or any part of it, and you may NOT present it as your own work or offer it
  as a competing product.

  © [YEAR] [YOUR NAME / BRAND]. All rights reserved. The licence is granted
  to the purchaser only.


COMMERCIAL / EXTENDED LICENCE  (charge more for this)
----------------------------------------------------------------

  Commercial licence for [PRODUCT NAME]

  You are licensed to use this file in your own commercial projects and in
  paid work you deliver to clients. You may adapt it for each project.

  You may NOT resell, share or redistribute the file itself, license it on,
  or sell it as a template, product or asset that competes with the original.
  You may NOT claim authorship of the underlying work.

  © [YEAR] [YOUR NAME / BRAND]. All rights reserved.


THE ONE LINE TO PUT ON THE LISTING
----------------------------------------------------------------

  "Personal-use licence included. Need it for client work? A commercial
  licence is available — [how to get it]."

That single line does two jobs: it heads off the client-use question before
it becomes a refund, and it creates a second, higher-priced version of a
product you have already made.

  Yours to keep — free, and no strings attached.

  This is one tool from the ePORTS Digital Products series. A worksheet
  gives you the "what"; the three books give you the "why" — the worked
  examples, the reasoning, and the costly mistakes you get to skip.
  This one is from Basics — getting your first product made, listed and sold.
