Terms of Service

Last updated: May 22nd, 2024

1. The basics

Welcome to Pexels! Pexels is a platform that allows you to post, link, store, share and contribute content to the platform. Our goal is to help designers, bloggers and everyone who is looking for content to discover and find high quality, free stock content to use in accordance with these Terms. These Terms of Service ("Terms") apply to the pexels.com website, related websites, software, mobile apps, plug-ins and other Pexels-operated services (collectively, the "Service(s)").

These Terms govern the relationship between Pexels, a Canva Germany GmbH brand ("we", "our" or "Pexels") and any user of the Service ("you", "your" or "User"), including in certain circumstances, the relationship between Users. By using the Service (including by downloading and using Content from the Service, or contributing Content or Communications to the Service):

you agree that you are entering into these Terms with us which will become a legally binding agreement between you and us; and
you represent and warrant that you have the full right, power and authority to agree to and be bound by these Terms and to fully perform all of your obligations listed in these Terms.

If you don’t agree to these Terms, please don’t use the Service.

Children may not access or use the Service unless their use is directly authorised by their parent, guardian or another authorised adult who agrees to be bound by these Terms. For the purposes of these Terms, a child is a person under the age of 13 (or the minimum legal age required to provide consent for processing of personal data in the country where the child is located, noting 16 is the minimum legal age in Germany).

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify these Terms at any time, including the right to cancel or change the licenses granted by these Terms. If we do this, we will post the most current version of these Terms on this page. We will seek to provide you with reasonable notice of any change to the Terms that, in our sole determination, materially adversely affect your rights or your use of the Service. We may provide you with this notice via the Service, and/or by email to the email address associated with your account. By continuing to use the Service after any revised Terms become effective, you agree to be bound by the new Terms.
