Homeschool families may:

Download the purchased file for their own household use.

Print copies for their own children.

Use the materials during homeschool lessons, horse-themed learning, family learning activities, or personal education.

Reprint pages as needed for their own children.

If another family would like to use the resource, they must purchase their own copy from Horse Talk Educational Resources.

4. Use by Riding Schools, Instructors, and Horse Camps

Riding schools, instructors, horse camps, and equestrian education programs may use purchased Horse Talk materials with their own enrolled students, lesson clients, or campers.

Riding schools, instructors, and camps may:

Print copies for their own students, lesson clients, or campers.

Use the materials during riding lessons, unmounted lessons, theory lessons, horse camps, workshops, rainy-day activities, educational programs, or barn learning activities.

Send home printed worksheets, completed activity pages, or printed handouts with their own students or campers.

Display printed posters, charts, and visual aids at their own facility.

Use the materials as part of their paid lesson, camp, or educational program, as long as the Horse Talk material itself is not being sold separately.

For example, a riding school may purchase a Horse Talk worksheet and use it during a paid horse camp or weekly lesson program. That is allowed.

However, a riding school may not sell the worksheet, include it in a separate product for sale, distribute the file to other riding schools, or give the file to another instructor, barn, camp, or business.

5. No Resale or Redistribution

7. Staff, Helpers, and Counselors

A riding school, camp, or instructor may allow staff members, assistants, helpers, substitute instructors, or camp counselors to use the materials only for the purpose of teaching or helping within the purchasing program.

Staff members, helpers, and counselors may not keep, copy, reuse, sell, share, upload, forward, or distribute the files outside of the purchasing program.

For example, a camp may print materials for counselors to use during camp. That is allowed. A counselor may not take the digital file and use it later at another barn, school, camp, or business.

8. Homeschool Groups, Co-ops, and Group Classes

A homeschool parent may use Horse Talk materials with the children in their own household.

Use in homeschool co-ops, group classes, paid classes, clubs, or multi-family programs requires that the purchasing instructor or group leader use the materials directly with their own enrolled students.

One family may not purchase a product and distribute it to all families in a homeschool co-op or group.

If multiple families, instructors, or group leaders would like their own access to the materials, each family or instructor must purchase their own copy unless a group license or written permission has been provided by Horse Talk Educational Resources.
