COPYRIGHT USE: Our DIY Incursion products are strictly limited to one license per teacher (user), unless multi-user license or school/centre license is purchased to suit your situation. Single user license allows you to use purchased resources for that user's class only. If it is intended that multiple classes or staff users, will be included in the DIY incursions, you will need to purchase a multi-class license, instead of 'single user only' license. This will allow you to run across the number of classes or users specified, for multiple years ahead if you wish to. Your license does not allow for reproduction, sharing to others, sharing online, reselling or using for any means of profit or physical business operations of any kind. Whole school or centre licensing is available per location, along with expanded business licensing to suit use across multiple locations. Once the relevant license is purchased, you will be permitted to use for many years to come, under the specific license you have purchased or get in touch to modify your license permissions.
