Document background
This Permanent Software License agreement is designed for use in the Indian jurisdiction when a software provider (licensor) wishes to grant permanent, non-revocable rights to use their software to a customer (licensee). The agreement is structured to comply with Indian legislation, including the Information Technology Act, 2000, the Copyright Act, 1957, and the Indian Contract Act, 1872. It includes comprehensive provisions covering license scope, usage rights, restrictions, warranties, support terms, and intellectual property protections. This document is particularly suitable for enterprise software deployments where the customer requires perpetual usage rights rather than subscription-based access. The agreement includes specific provisions addressing Indian legal requirements regarding digital contracts, intellectual property protection, and data privacy, making it appropriate for both domestic and international software licensing transactions within the Indian legal framework.
