Snake Mono — End User License Agreement

This agreement covers the paid Snake Mono license and the free on-site demo. The website Terms of Service govern accounts, purchases and the operation of the online service. The Privacy Notice explains how personal data is handled.

1. Parties and definitions

We / Typefolder means Aimeric Guerre EI, trading as Typefolder, the business granting this license. Contact: contact@typefolder.com.

You / the licensee means the individual or business named in the purchase. For the free demo, it means the person using the demo. Someone purchasing for a business or client must have authority to accept this agreement on its behalf.

Fonts means Snake Mono Regular and Bold and the fonts created and exported through the Snake Mono Dashboard. Restrictions on font files also apply to reusable glyph and source files supplied or exported through the service.

Dashboard means the Snake Mono game, customization and export tools provided at https://snake.typefolder.com.

Finished artwork means a completed design, such as a layout, logo, image or video. A reusable alphabet, glyph library or collection of font sources is not finished artwork for the purposes of this agreement.

2. License grant and duration

After payment, Typefolder grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use the fonts under this agreement and within your purchased company-size tier. The license belongs to the named licensee. It cannot be transferred to another person or business without our written agreement, except where required by law. Sharing files as permitted in section 4 is not a transfer.

Every standard paid license includes:

The license has no scheduled expiry or recurring subscription charge. You may continue to use fonts lawfully downloaded under it if the online service closes, unless your license has otherwise ended under section 10.

The one-time payment does not guarantee permanent online hosting. Dashboard availability and service changes are governed by the Terms of Service, subject to our purchase commitments and your mandatory legal rights.

Dashboard progress and settings are saved in the current browser. They are not promised as cloud backups or cross-device saves. Unlimited saves and exports does not mean unlimited storage capacity; reasonable technical and security limits may apply, but must not introduce an undisclosed ordinary-use quota.

The files and features included are those stated at purchase. The supplied font formats include OpenType OTF, TrueType TTF, and WOFF/WOFF2 webfonts. Variable fonts include the GROW (Growth) axis. Permission for a particular use does not promise additional formats, characters, languages or future features.

3. Company size

The standard tiers are 1–3, 4–10, 11–20 and 21–50 people. More than 50 people requires a written custom agreement before use.

Count the whole business named as licensee, not just the people installing or using the fonts. Include:

A sole trader counts as one person. Occasional independent project suppliers do not count merely because they receive files under section 4.

Departments, branches and brands of the same business cannot be counted separately to obtain a smaller tier. A separately incorporated affiliate is not automatically covered. Use across a corporate group requires a written agreement identifying the businesses covered.

If you exceed your tier for three consecutive months, contact us within the following 30 days to arrange an upgrade. For standard tiers, the upgrade costs the difference between the then-current price of the required tier and the then-current price of your existing tier, never less than zero. We will confirm the amount before payment. Growth beyond 50 people requires a custom quote. A reduction in company size does not entitle you to a refund.

The price and applicable taxes for your initial purchase are those disclosed at checkout. Later price changes do not change that completed purchase.

4. Designers, clients and collaborators

For client work, the client whose business or projects use the fonts is normally the licensee. Choose the client’s company size. An agency’s license does not cover unrelated clients; each client needs its own license unless a written custom agreement provides otherwise.

You may purchase for a client if they authorize you to do so. The purchase must identify the correct licensee and company size, and record acceptance of this agreement on their behalf.

You may share necessary font files with designers, developers, printers and other suppliers working on the licensee’s projects, provided they agree to:

These collaborators need their own license for their own business or other clients. You must take reasonable steps to communicate and enforce these conditions.

Do not share account passwords. Dashboard collaboration requires individually authorized access where available. Contact us if the access you need is not supported.

5. Permitted uses

You may use the fonts for the named licensee’s personal and commercial projects, including:

These uses have no separate device, pageview, domain or finished-artwork production charges under the standard license. Keep hosted font files out of public directories and file listings that offer them for download. Normal browser delivery of an authorized webfont is permitted; you are not required to make extraction technically impossible.

You may convert text to outlines and edit it as part of finished artwork, including a logo. You may distribute and sell that artwork and products bearing it. This does not permit creating a modified font or a reusable alphabet.

The following uses are not included in this license:

These restrictions do not prohibit ordinary text display on the licensee’s websites, or a flattened image or outlined logo used in an application or game. Internal document production for the licensee is also included. This agreement does not grant third-party design or rendering service rights, or promise that a separate license for those uses will be available.

6. Customization and exports

You may customize Snake Mono only through the supplied Dashboard controls. The authorized controls let you:

You may use and animate GROW in compatible design software or on a website. Using a supplied variable axis, OpenType features, text tracking or line spacing is ordinary font use, not font-file editing.

Exported fonts are covered by the same permitted uses and duration as the base fonts. Exporting completed characters through the Dashboard’s normal workflow is permitted. These permissions do not provide access to unreleased controls or guarantee that every preview effect is supported by every export format.

Other typeface customization requires our written permission. The restrictions on external editing are set out in section 7.

7. Restrictions

Font editing and character sets

You may not edit supplied or exported font files in external font editors, vector editors, scripts, converters or other tools. This includes changing glyph designs, snake paths, component shapes, spacing, kerning, metrics, OpenType tables or variable axes, and editing reusable glyph/source files to rebuild a font. Reimporting an externally edited file does not authorize it.

You may not add, remove, replace or remap glyphs, merge fonts or otherwise change the character set. For example, you may not replace the supplied A with your own design or assign B’s design to A.

This does not restrict the Dashboard operations permitted in section 6, ordinary typesetting or editing finished artwork under section 5.

Conversion and subsetting

Use the formats supplied by Typefolder or exported by the Dashboard. Manual conversion or subsetting requires written permission.

Automatic subsetting or format handling strictly necessary for permitted document embedding or browser delivery is allowed, provided it does not redesign the typeface, remove notices where they can be preserved, or provide standalone substitute font files.

Distribution

You may not resell, sublicense, give away or publicly upload the fonts or reusable glyph/source files, including Dashboard-created variants. Do not put them in public repositories, shared font libraries or marketplaces. Permitted embedding under section 5 and restricted collaborator sharing under section 4 are exceptions.

Protected code and data

You may not copy or redistribute Typefolder’s protected generator code, glyph outlines, skeletons or routing datasets outside the authorized workflow, use copied protected material to build a substitute font or generator, or bypass account and export controls. Public browser access does not grant reuse rights.

You may not reverse engineer proprietary code to copy protected implementation or evade the license. This does not prohibit lawful browser inspection, observation, accessibility work, interoperability or independent development that does not copy protected material or unlawfully obtain confidential data.

AI training and third-party tools

This license does not authorize using protected fonts, extracted glyph or skeleton datasets, or proprietary code to train or fine-tune models or build datasets to reproduce our typefaces or implementation. You may not ask another person or an AI tool to perform an activity this agreement prohibits.

Ordinary licensed design work is not prohibited merely because you use an AI-assisted editor that does not redistribute or train on those assets.

All restrictions in this section are subject to mandatory law and applicable third-party software licenses. They do not claim ownership of ideas, general game mechanics or other unprotectable material.

8. Free demo license

Without a paid license, you may play the public game, type preview text and try the publicly available Dashboard controls on this website, for evaluation only. Creating an account does not expand these rights.

The demo does not permit:

Your browser may load and temporarily cache resources needed to run the demo. Local progress and preference saves do not grant font-use or export rights. The demo is not a downloadable trial-font license.

The applicable restrictions in section 7 also apply to the demo, subject to mandatory legal exceptions and third-party software rights.

9. Ownership and notices

You purchase permission to use the fonts, not ownership of the underlying fonts or Typefolder’s protected code and data. Creating a Dashboard variant does not make it an exclusive typeface or grant independent font-distribution rights.

You retain rights you independently hold in your original work. Typefolder does not acquire your brand, text or finished artwork because you use Snake Mono. Third-party components remain subject to their own licenses.

Preserve copyright and license notices in reusable font and software files where technically supported. Do not claim exclusive ownership of the underlying typeface or imply an endorsement from Typefolder.

Public credit in finished artwork is appreciated but not required. We will ask permission before showcasing non-public work or using your identity as an endorsement.

10. Compliance and termination

If there is a reasonable, specific concern about compliance, we may request a statement identifying the licensee, company size and use. We do not require passwords, access to your computers, private client work or named employee lists. Any further audit must be proportionate, lawful and separately arranged.

We may terminate affected rights for a material breach. If the breach can be corrected, we will explain it and normally allow at least 30 days to do so. Urgent, proportionate suspension may be necessary for active piracy, fraud, a genuine security threat or a legal obligation. A good-faith company-size error should normally be resolved by correcting the license. No automatic fine applies.

Lawful cancellation or a full refund ends that purchase’s rights unless the law or refund agreement provides otherwise. A partial refund does not automatically end the whole license. A payment dispute may justify proportionate temporary suspension, but is not itself proof of wrongdoing. Unrelated purchases and Typefolder or Gummy rights are unaffected.

When rights validly end, stop new use of the affected fonts and delete unauthorized copies, except restricted archives required by law. Lawfully completed artwork does not have to be recalled or destroyed. This does not permit new font use or continued unauthorized distribution.

11. Support, warranties and liability

Test fonts and exports in your intended applications before production. Report defects to contact@typefolder.com so we can investigate correction or replacement.

Nothing in this agreement excludes mandatory consumer rights, including applicable rights concerning digital-content and service conformity, security updates and refunds.

For business users only, and to the extent permitted by law, we give no additional warranty of fitness for a particular purpose or uninterrupted operation beyond our express purchase commitments. Our total liability for a paid business license is limited to the price paid for the affected license; indirect business losses are excluded.

These limits do not apply to fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury or liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

12. Applicable law, version and contact

French law applies. Consumers retain the mandatory protections and access to competent courts available in their country of residence. Business disputes are subject to the courts competent under applicable procedural law.

The agreement version accepted at purchase governs that purchase’s font rights. Later website edits do not reduce those rights retroactively. Service changes remain subject to the Terms of Service and mandatory law. A signed custom agreement prevails within its scope. Mandatory law prevails over either.

If a provision is invalid, the remaining provisions continue to apply. This agreement does not limit separate third-party or open-source license rights.
