To put it simply, a software license agreement is an agreement between your company and your customers about the use of the software to which you have the rights. It allows your customers to use your software and describes exactly how they can use it. The software license agreement describes in detail where customers can install it and how and how often it can be installed. In addition, it should answer questions that your customers may have about their ability to copy, modify, or redistribute it. The price and royalties of the Software may also be included in this Agreement. A software license agreement is something you want to have to protect yourself or yourself from copyright infringement. This detailed 9-page license agreement, available for immediate download (no notification is required), contains a number of detailed clauses relating to warranties and liabilities in favor of the licensor, for example. B the limitation of the licensor`s liability in the event of product defects or events beyond appropriate control. The model is designed to be flexible and extensible, for additional or individual requirements. Licensing also determines scope – the types of uses to which the software can be added. Does the law allow a licensor to restrict the disclosure or use of trade secrets and know-how by the licensee or a third party in your jurisdiction, both during and after the term of the license agreement? Is it appropriate to distinguish between improvements to which the licensee may have contributed? Different software providers calculate licenses in different ways.

The content of the royalties is defined in these agreements in a list. The proposed provision includes the licensing of the software for a fixed amount per specified period (e.g. B £1 per month), for a fixed amount per authorized user per given period or for a fixed amount per installation per specified period. Third Party Applications: means any 3.3 third party software that is used or integrated into the Software to ensure its functionality, including payment stores and application stores. Limitation of Liability – To what extent does the contract limit the potential obligations of the parties with respect to the nature of the damage in question? In accordance with sections 16(2) and 173(2) of the 1988 CDPA, a co-owner of copyright may not, in the United Kingdom, grant or exploit a copyrighted work without the consent of the other co-owner. Where a Community right has been granted by one owner, the other `unlicensed` owner is free to bring an action for infringement. The CDPA does not explicitly deal with the assignment of co-ownership rights, although it has been scientifically asserted that this is possible, with the assignee following in the footsteps of the assignor and taking over the copyright as a common tenant. This uncertainty as to the assignment may be subject to explicit contractual treatment between the parties.
