Enhanced license settlement
Few days ago I received this email from ShutterStock. I was totally impressed because I taught it is impossible to find out something like this.
Shutterstock Images LLC recently settled a claim against one of its Subscribers. We found the Subscriber had exceeded the circulation limits of the Standard Licenses granted to it by Shutterstock. As a remedy the client has agreed to purchase the Enhanced License for all the images it has used in this way.
Our research indicates that one or more of your images was downloaded and used by the Subscriber.
Rather than deduct the legal and administrative expenses incurred by Shutterstock in reaching the settlement, Shutterstock has elected to distribute the bulk of the settlement proceeds to affected Submitters and absorb the majority of the costs of the settlement. We believe the settlement to be fair and reasonable given all of the circumstances surrounding the breach of our Terms of Service.
Within 24-48 hours you will notice an Enhanced License credit in your account for each of your images downloaded and used by the Subscriber.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding this matter.
As result I received $28 for my favorite image LINK
