Document background
The Standard Use License agreement is designed for situations where one party (the licensor) grants another party (the licensee) the right to use specific intellectual property, software, content, or other proprietary materials under defined conditions. This document is essential in Hong Kong's business environment, particularly in technology and content-driven sectors, where it helps protect intellectual property rights while enabling commercial exploitation. The agreement incorporates key requirements under Hong Kong law, including provisions from the Copyright Ordinance, Contract Law, and related legislation. It is commonly used for software licensing, content distribution, technology transfers, and similar arrangements where controlled use of proprietary material is required. The Standard Use License includes comprehensive terms covering usage rights, restrictions, payment terms, and compliance requirements, making it suitable for both business-to-business and business-to-consumer arrangements in the Hong Kong market.
