Document background
The Software Sublicense Agreement is essential when a licensed software user wishes to extend software usage rights to other parties within the Philippine jurisdiction. This document is commonly used in scenarios where a primary licensee, often a distributor or enterprise customer, needs to provide software access to subsidiaries, affiliates, or other authorized users. The agreement must align with Philippine technology and intellectual property laws, particularly the Intellectual Property Code and E-Commerce Act. It typically includes detailed provisions on usage rights, territorial restrictions, compliance requirements, and data privacy obligations. The document serves as a crucial tool for software distribution and commercialization while protecting the interests of all parties involved in the software licensing chain.
