Software Licensing

A software license should identify what a user may do with the relevant software or service.

Access and distribution rights

Hosted access, source-code use, modification and redistribution are different permissions. A review should examine restrictions, included components and the relationship to third-party licenses. Downloading a file or reading code does not itself establish commercial rights.

How this relates to Remizen

This guide grants no new Remizen software license, source access or redistribution right. Existing terms are not amended.

Key points
