Why do you need a End User License Agreement (EULA)?

End User License Agreements (EULAs) are essential if you have a piece of intellectual property (IP), e.g. software, that you need to protect. It grants the user permission to do something that might otherwise be considered an infringement of copyright law. The perfect EULA gives the software developer peace of mind that their product is safe and free from misuse.

What is a End User License Agreement (EULA)?

A EULA gives the buyer of your software the licence to use it, while also ensuring it is not misused, resold, or copied. It also gives you (as the owners of the IP) the ability to exclude or limit your liability and the right to sue the user if they don’t comply with the terms of the agreement.
