This checklist is for use by licensees when reviewing a licensor's terms for the licence of commercially available packaged software. The checklist covers key issues that frequently arise in these types of licensing arrangements. However, it is not intended to be an exhaustive list and licensees should be careful to review all licence terms carefully. Agreements in respect of software that is to be developed or heavily configured specifically for the licensee are outside the scope of this checklist. In those circumstances, the contract is likely to (and should) contain additional detailed provisions relating to the ownership of intellectual property rights in the new software, acceptance, conformity with specification, delivery of bespoke elements and warranties. The checklist is written from a European perspective. For non-European software licences, users should ensure that they take into account relevant local law issues.

In the UK and across all member states of the European Union, the use of cookies and other technologies for storing and accessing information on a user's device is regulated. The UK's Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 (the Regulations) require user/subscriber consent to the use of these technologies. That consent must be freely given, specific and informed. A cookie policy enables website operators and online businesses to give clear and transparent information to users/subscribers about the use of cookies. A cookie policy is therefore one of a number of tools that might be used when obtaining user/subscriber consent to ensure that consent is specific and informed.<br /><br />
