We distribute design assets, including third-party intellectual property such as logos, tradenames, and characters, under U.S. copyright law's fair use doctrine.

What is Fair Use?

"Fair use" allows limited use of copyrighted material without permission from the rights holders, particularly for purposes like criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research.

Icons8 strives to ensure our use of third-party assets is transformative, limited, and does not impact the market for the original works.


Respect for Intellectual Property Rights

If you are the copyright holder of any content in our collection and have concerns about its use, please contact us directly. We will quickly remove any material when we have a valid request.

If you have any questions or need more information, don't hesitate to contact our team.
