Incorporation of Digital Images in any other product or service or any other use or exploitation whatsoever (including, without limitation, inclusion in any other network or on-line service) is not included in the scope of this Agreement and an additional licence will be required and additional fees will be payable.
4.2 The Client shall not store or include any Digital Images on any database, product incorporating a database or similar information retrieval system which is not controlled by the Client or a Service Provider.
4.3 The Client may not, without the permission of the Supplier add to, splice, merge, alter, manipulate or adapt any Digital Image so as to make it materially different to the Picture from which it is derived.
