This Private Software License agreement template is designed for use under Swiss law when a software provider wishes to license their software to private entities while maintaining ownership and control over their intellectual property. The document incorporates essential provisions required by Swiss legislation, including the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) and Federal Copyright Act (URG). It is particularly suitable for business-to-business software licensing transactions in Switzerland, covering aspects such as license scope, usage rights, warranties, and liability limitations. The agreement should be used when there is a need to establish clear terms for software usage while ensuring compliance with Swiss regulatory requirements and providing adequate protection for both licensor and licensee interests.
