This document is a free-to-use software EULA or end user licence. Click-wrap and web-wrap licences can be created using this document, as well as more traditional shrink-wrap licences. The document governs the legal relationship between a licensor and its customers.
Note: although this EULA can be used for B2C licences as well as B2B licences, it does not include a distance selling clause. See our software download T&Cs for a document incorporating such a clause.
There are a range of optional provisions in the EULA. These cover such matters as: a contractual right to a return/refund; the provision of support in relation to the software; and the supply and application of updates to the software.
