Freeware License Agreement

"I need a Freeware License Agreement for my educational mobile app that I'm releasing for free, but I want to ensure I'm protected from liability and maintain my intellectual property rights while allowing unlimited personal use."

Document background
The Freeware License Agreement serves as a crucial legal framework for software developers and publishers who wish to distribute their software at no cost while maintaining certain rights and protections. This document, compliant with U.S. federal and state laws, establishes clear boundaries between free access and restricted rights, protecting intellectual property while enabling broad distribution. It addresses key aspects such as usage limitations, liability protection, and warranty disclaimers, making it essential for any entity releasing free software in the United States.
