All visual assets, photography collections, editorial archives, logos, graphics, and text displayed on this website or delivered through our digital fulfillment channels are the exclusive intellectual property of Studio Torgerson. All rights are reserved globally.
Purchasing a digital asset collection or license does not transfer copyright ownership to the buyer. Copyright remains permanently with the original artist. You are strictly purchasing a specific, non-exclusive usage license based on your selected tier.

- Extended Media: Usage of assets in high-volume physical print media (such as nationwide billboards, magazines, or commercial packaging) requires an extended print license negotiated directly with Studio Torgerson.

Upon completion of checkout and payment authorization (including Apple Pay and credit card clearing), our digital delivery network instantly generates and emails a secure, time-sensitive download link containing your signed, high-resolution master assets. You are entirely responsible for securely downloading and backing up your purchased master files upon receipt. Studio Torgerson is not liable for data loss or deleted files on the client's local servers.
