Document background
This Non Transferable Software License agreement is designed for use in the German market where software providers need to grant specific usage rights while maintaining strict control over their intellectual property. It is particularly relevant when the licensor wants to ensure their software remains used only by the original licensee, preventing any unauthorized transfer or sublicensing. The document incorporates mandatory provisions of German law, including requirements under the German Civil Code (BGB) and Copyright Act (UrhG), while addressing modern software licensing practices and EU regulations. It is suitable for both B2B and B2C contexts, though terms may need adjustment based on the specific relationship. The agreement includes comprehensive provisions for software usage, technical requirements, support services, and data protection compliance, with special attention to German-specific legal requirements regarding warranty terms and liability limitations.
