The On Premise Software License Agreement is essential for organizations deploying software solutions within their own infrastructure in Germany. This document is specifically designed to comply with German legal requirements while protecting both the software provider's intellectual property rights and the customer's usage rights. It is particularly relevant when software is installed and operated on the customer's own servers or infrastructure, rather than being provided as a cloud service. The agreement covers critical aspects such as license scope, installation requirements, maintenance terms, and compliance with German data protection laws. It includes specific provisions required under German contract law for software licensing, addressing both B2B and B2C scenarios where applicable. The document structure accommodates various software deployment scenarios while ensuring compliance with German copyright law (UrhG), civil code (BGB), and data protection requirements (BDSG and GDPR).
