Hi thank you for your interest in my work.
I am not a lawyer, and no longer an employee of Adobe so unfortunately I cannot give you a legal answer.
Please contact representatives at Adobe for a more satisfying definitive answer.

sorry - didn't mean to come off as so accusatory. Amazing work so far. Really looking forward to what you come up with next.
