Professional Partnerships

The professional partnership licence is specifically designed for legal and professional partnerships.

The licence allows copying from the national and regional newspapers, certain specialist and foreign titles and newspaper websites.

Subject to certain terms and conditions, this includes paper copying (photocopying, faxing and printing), digital copying (scanning, emailing and hosting on an intranet site) and the receipt & distribution of content received from a PR or licensed media monitoring agency.

Copying can be undertaken on an occasional or frequent basis in both paper and digital formats, where elected.

The Licence Fee

This consists of a compulsory basic licence fee covering occasional copying from the national and regional newspapers and, if required, additional fees for frequent paper and digital copying

For new licensees there may be a charge for your previous unlicensed copying.
