Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ

An End User License Agreement or EULA is a contract under which the developer or exclusive rights holder of a software grants to an end-user a right to use the software, subject to the terms and conditions specified in the contract. An End User License Agreement does not give ownership rights to the end-user. It usually gives only a non-exclusive right to the end-user.

An employer owns the copyright in any software developed by its employees in Australia, except for any third-party software, developer tools, or technologies used in creating the software. Generally, a software developer who is not an employee will own the copyright in the software unless you have in place a binding contract between you and the software developer assigning all copyright and other intellectual property rights in the software to your company.

When you commission a developer to design a customised software app for your company, usually developer will propose a form of software agreement for you to sign. Do not sign the software contract proposed by the developer, unless you have your lawyer check it out first. We will consider and update all aspects of the contract, including copyright ownership, background technology ownership, warranties of ownership, warranties of performance, dispute resolution mechanisms, and the proposed commercial aspects of the project. These include the functional specifications of the software to be developed, the schedule of work and milestones, and your payment arrangements with the developer, for instance, an hourly rate plus expenses or a fixed price for a part or the entirety of the project.
