Meaning
Editorial use is a contextual or contractual label often associated with informative reporting rather than promotional endorsement.
A practical example
A stock asset marked editorial-only should prompt review of the intended placement and the actual license terms.
What to check
A documentary label does not by itself resolve every restriction. Check the relevant terms and avoid claiming a universal commercial-use exception.
