Document background
The Use License Agreement is essential for businesses and individuals seeking to formalize the terms under which intellectual property, software, content, or technology can be used in Belgium and potentially across the EU. This document type is particularly relevant in today's digital economy where licensing of intellectual property and technology is increasingly common. The agreement must comply with Belgian law, including the Civil Code and Code of Economic Law, while also adhering to relevant EU regulations such as GDPR and consumer protection directives. It typically includes detailed provisions on scope of use, territorial restrictions, payment terms, intellectual property protection, and termination rights. A Use License Agreement is particularly important when the licensor wishes to maintain control over their intellectual property while allowing others to use it under specific conditions.
