Software Licencing And Copyright Questions
A software license is a legal agreement between the software owner (licensor) and the user (licensee) that grants the user the right to use the software under certain conditions. It outlines the terms and conditions, such as the number of users, duration of use, and any restrictions or limitations.
On the other hand, software indemnity is a provision in a software license agreement that protects the licensee from any legal claims or damages arising from the use of the software. It ensures that the licensor will defend and compensate the licensee if there is a claim of copyright infringement or any other legal issue related to the software.
In summary, a software license defines the terms of use, while software indemnity provides protection against legal claims or damages.
