EasyMaker Licence Agreement
Last updated: 28 April 2025
This Licence Agreement outlines the terms of use for EasyMaker — a service provided by Photosymbols Ltd to help create accessible Easy Read content. By using EasyMaker, you agree to these terms.
1. General Use
EasyMaker is a platform that helps you create Easy Read information. It uses a combination of human-created and AI-generated tools, including text simplification and image matching. You can create documents by uploading content, pasting in text, entering a website link, or describing a topic.
Once your document is created, it can be downloaded, edited, or exported in multiple formats. Currently available formats include (but are not limited to):
-
A4 Easy Read PDF
-
Web version
-
Plain English version
-
Audio version
-
Flashcards
-
Interactive mobile-friendly version with read-aloud
Additional formats and features may be added over time.
2. Tokens
Access to EasyMaker is based on a token system. Each action, such as generating a document, unlocking a new format, or generating custom image, uses tokens.
-
The number of tokens required for each type of content or action will be clearly displayed before you confirm your choice.
-
Tokens can be purchased in advance and stored in your account.
-
We may update token pricing or usage rules at any time, but you will always see the cost clearly before using any feature.
-
Tokens do not expire and can be shared between users within the same organisation - you must both share the same email suffix to share tokens.
-
Once tokens are used, they are non-refundable.
3. Use of Photosymbols Images
Images used in EasyMaker documents include:
-
Photos from the Photosymbols photo library
-
AI-generated images using our inbuilt tool
All images, whether photographic or AI-generated, remain the copyright of Photosymbols Ltd.
-
You are licensed to use these images within the documents created in EasyMaker.
-
If you have a current Photosymbols subscription, you may also use these images in other documents or communications, in line with your licence terms.
-
If you have a Photosymbols subscription, any AI images you generate in EasyMaker will appear in your personal image library and can be used in other Easy Read work under your subscription terms.
4. AI-Generated Images
When using our generative AI image tool:
-
Each image generation uses tokens.
-
You can generate multiple versions to find the best match.
-
When you choose an image, it is automatically added to your document and saved in your Generated Images tab for reuse.
-
All generated images remain the copyright of Photosymbols Ltd.
-
As part of your token usage, you’re licensed to use these images in EasyMaker documents, and — if you hold a valid Photosymbols subscription — in other Easy Read materials.
-
A copy of each generated image is also sent to the Photosymbols team for quality review. Some images may be added to the wider Photosymbols image library for all users.
-
If you are a Photosymbols subscriber, your generated images will also appear in your Favourites within the Photosymbols image library and can be used under your subscription terms.
5. Document Storage & Use
-
EasyMaker documents are stored in your account’s document library.
-
You can access, duplicate, and edit your documents at any time.
-
Each document is created with embedded images — you are licensed to use those images only in that document unless you have a current and valid Photosymbols subscription.
6. Responsibility
-
You are responsible for the content you create with EasyMaker.
-
You must ensure all content is used respectfully and appropriately.
-
You are responsible for checking and approving all text and images before sharing or publishing any EasyMaker content.
7. Refunds
-
Once a document has been approved and created using tokens, no refunds will be given.
8. Updates to this Agreement
This Licence Agreement may be updated from time to time. By continuing to use EasyMaker after an update, you agree to the revised terms.
