1. Who grants this licence
This licence is granted by Deshenvale Ltd, trading as Pewterham ("we", "us"), a company registered in Scotland with company number SC900494, whose registered office is at 48 West George Street, Glasgow, Scotland, G2 1BP. "You" means the person who bought Foilwright.
The licence is the same whether you bought Foilwright on our website, through our reseller Paddle, or on Etsy. Foilwright is licensed to you, not sold: we keep the copyright in the app, its designs, its artwork and marks, and its look. Foilwright is © Deshenvale Ltd 2026, apart from the fonts and icons by others (section 4), which keep their own licences.
2. What you may do
- Use Foilwright, for as long as you like, on computers and devices you own or control, one computer at a time (section 6).
- Design as many cards as you like, for yourself or for clients, including paid design work. A finished card, made for one person or business with their own details, is yours or theirs to use.
- Print the cards you make anywhere, and send their files to any printer. They are yours. No credit or link back to Foilwright is needed.
- Keep a private online copy of Foilwright for your own use (for example, to use it on a phone or tablet), as long as it is protected so only you can open it. It counts as one of your computers (section 6).
- Keep backup copies of the files you downloaded, for your own use.
3. What you may not do
- Share, give away, sell, rent, lend or sub-license Foilwright, or any part of it (its code, designs, artwork, marks or look), whether as it is or changed.
- Resell Foilwright in any form: as a card maker, as a business card template pack, as a product with "resell rights" or "private label rights", or inside a bundle.
- Sell or give away Foilwright's designs as templates: editable or printable card designs for other people to put their own details into, on Etsy or anywhere else.
- Put Foilwright, or any part of it, inside another app, website, template, product or service, whether you charge for it or give it away.
- Put Foilwright itself online where other people can open it or download it.
- Share your activation code with anyone else, or change Foilwright to get round its activation.
- Remove the font and icon licences that come with Foilwright, or this licence.
4. Fonts and icons
Foilwright includes fonts by other designers, shared under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 or the Apache License 2.0, and card icons from Tabler Icons (MIT License). Their licences travel with them, in the fonts and licenses folders inside Foilwright, and FONTS.md lists them. The social media icons are other companies' trade marks: use them only to point to your own profiles. QR Code is a registered trade mark of DENSO WAVE INCORPORATED.
5. The cards you make
You are responsible for what your cards say and show: that it is true, and that you have the right to use every name, logo, photo and detail on them. The example details are invented: replace them with your own. Colours and foil look different on screen and on paper: ask your printer for a proof before a large print run.
6. Activation
- Foilwright needs a one-time online activation. If you bought on our website, your activation code arrives by email within 24 hours of your payment; if you bought on Etsy, it arrives by Etsy message, usually within 24 hours.
- Foilwright asks for the code when you first open it, and you can choose Later. Until you enter it you can use everything except one step: the first time you export your card, Foilwright asks for the code again.
- A code works on one computer at a time. A "computer" means one web browser on one computer: another browser, a private window or an online copy counts as another computer.
- You can move your code to another computer yourself up to 3 times in any 12 months. "Remove this computer" in Foilwright frees it without using a move. If you need more, ask us.
- If the activation service can't be reached when you first enter your code, Foilwright gives that computer a 7-day temporary pass and confirms your code later. A temporary pass ends if the code turns out not to be valid, or is already in use on another computer.
- Once activated, Foilwright works offline. When you're online it checks in at most once a day; if it can't reach us, nothing changes.
- We may switch off a code after a refund or a chargeback, or if it is shared in breach of this licence.
- If we ever close the activation service, we will first release an update of Foilwright, at no cost, that works without activation. Until then, we'll send you an offline pass on request.
7. Updates and help
Updates to version 1 of Foilwright come at no extra cost. For help, email us at [email protected] or, if you bought on Etsy, message us there.
8. No warranty, and your rights
Foilwright is provided "as is". We work hard to make it reliable, but we can't promise it will be free of errors or suit every purpose. As far as the law allows, our total liability to you is limited to the price you paid. Nothing in this licence limits the rights you have by law as a consumer, for example if Foilwright is faulty or not as described.
Foilwright is a digital download. When you bought it, you asked for it to be supplied straight away and acknowledged that once the download starts you lose the 14-day right to cancel. This doesn't affect your other legal rights. Our terms and refunds say what happens if something is wrong.
9. If these terms are broken
If you break these terms, this licence ends and you must delete your copies of Foilwright. Cards you made while following these terms are still yours.
10. The law
This licence is governed by the laws of Scotland. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the laws of the country where you live.
11. Privacy
Activation sends us your code, a random ID made for your browser and which app it is, and never your card, your name or anything you type. Our privacy notice says what we keep, why, for how long, and your rights.
