We are committed to providing you with the best user experience possible. To ensure a smooth journey for all our users, we have established guidelines regarding account sharing and copyright.

Can multiple users share one account?

No, BioRender accounts are intended for individual use only. We do not permit the sharing of accounts among multiple individuals.

Why is sharing an account not allowed?

This policy is in place to protect the integrity and security of our platform and your account. Sharing an account may result in unauthorized access to personal data and illustrations and misuse of our platform.

Publication permissions provided by Publication Licenses are granted to the account's owner. To make sure you are rightfully credited for your creative contributions, create BioRender figures using your own account.

What are the consequences of sharing an account?

We take the sharing of an account seriously. Any accounts found to be in violation of this policy may be subject to deactivation. Our priority is to ensure a fair and secure environment for all our users. If you have any concerns or questions regarding this matter, please don't hesitate to contact our Support team.

Copyright and Publication Rights:

At BioRender, we respect intellectual property rights and encourage our users to do the same. It's important to note that publishing BioRender illustrations without a paid license infringes on copyright laws. It is the responsibility of each user to ensure they have the necessary permissions and licenses for the use and publication of their illustrations.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to our account sharing and copyright Terms. By following these guidelines, we can maintain a secure and reliable platform for all our users.
