The Reseller Software License Agreement is designed for use in the New Zealand market where a software owner wishes to expand their distribution network through authorized resellers. This document is essential when establishing formal reselling arrangements for software products, whether for domestic or international distribution. It complies with New Zealand's legal framework, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, Fair Trading Act 1986, and Copyright Act 1994. The agreement is structured to protect the intellectual property rights of the software owner while enabling resellers to effectively market and distribute the software, covering crucial aspects such as territory rights, pricing, support obligations, and compliance requirements. It's particularly relevant for businesses looking to scale their software distribution through indirect sales channels while maintaining control over their product's market presence and usage.
