Document background
This One Time Software License agreement template is designed for use in Australian jurisdictions where a perpetual, non-recurring software license needs to be granted. It is particularly suitable for situations where software is being licensed for a one-off fee without ongoing subscription or maintenance obligations. The document incorporates all necessary elements required under Australian law, including consumer protection provisions, intellectual property rights, and data privacy considerations. It's structured to accommodate various software types and business contexts, while ensuring compliance with relevant legislation such as the Copyright Act 1968 and the Competition and Consumer Act 2010. The agreement should be used when a clear, legally binding framework is needed for granting software usage rights while protecting the licensor's intellectual property and defining the licensee's permitted use scope.
