Terms of use

The rules for using Not On The Fridge: the briefs are free to read, print and share, your drawings stay yours, and you must be 13 or older to join our email list.

Draft for legal review, version 2026-10-23-draft. Last updated 23 October 2026. 4 points marked [TO CONFIRM] still need an answer.

1. Who we are

Not On The Fridge ("we", "us", "the site") publishes a free daily drawing brief. It is run by Ball of String Limited, a company registered in England and Wales (company number 17133708), 165 Angelica Drive, London E6 6NT. You can reach us at hello@notonthefridge.com.

By using the site you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

2. Using the briefs

  • Everything you can read on the site is free. You don't need an account.
  • You may print the briefs and the printable PDFs for yourself, your family, your class or your club, and share links to them. Please keep our name and the link on anything you share.
  • You may not sell the briefs, copy the site in bulk, or use it to train or build machine learning or AI tools without our written permission.
  • Briefs are made for fun. Take care when drawing: use materials safely, and ask an adult if you're under 18 and unsure.

3. What is ours

The site, the briefs, our logo, our illustrations, the daily brief pictures and the PDFs belong to us or are used with permission. These terms give you the right to use them as described above and nothing more.

4. Your drawings and sharing on social media

We don't take uploads on the site. You may share your drawings on social media with the hashtag #NotOnTheFridge or by tagging us.

You keep the copyright in your drawings. By sharing publicly with our hashtag or tagging us, you are inviting us to see it. We may like it, comment, and show your post on the site using the platform's own embed, with your name and a link to your post.

Before we use your picture in any other way (for example copying it into our own posts, a gallery or print), we will ask you first. You can ask us to stop showing your post at any time by emailing us or by deleting your post.

Please only share drawings you made yourself and that are suitable for all ages. We may decline to show a post, and we may report posts that break the law or the platform's rules.

If you are under 18, please check with a parent or carer before sharing your drawing publicly, and follow each platform's own age rules.

5. Our email list

  • You must be 13 or older to join. Please use your own address.
  • We use your email to write to you once, when accounts and posting open on Not On The Fridge, and for nothing else. If we ever want to send you anything else, we will ask you first. You can write to us at any time and we will remove you.
  • The email is sent through our email provider, Resend.

7. Our promises and our limits

We take reasonable care to run the site, but it is provided free of charge "as is". We don't promise it will always be available or free of mistakes, and we may change or remove it.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. Subject to that, we are not liable for loss that was not reasonably foreseeable, or for loss of profit or business. [TO CONFIRM WITH REVIEWER: limit of liability, given a mainly consumer audience that includes young people.]

Your legal rights as a consumer are not affected.

9. Changes and law

We may change these terms, for example when we add features. The latest version is always on this page, and if a change matters we will say so on the site or by email.

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales decide disputes, although if you live elsewhere in the UK you may also use your local courts. [TO CONFIRM WITH REVIEWER.]
