Definition: The EULA or End User License Agreement spells out exactly what rights and restrictions apply to a software package. Some components of a typical EULA are the definitions, grant of license, limitations, copyright, and warranty. Some license agreements may provide detailed lists of what you can and cannot do with the software, images, fonts, or other components of the package.
Software (purchased in-store or downloads), fonts, stock photos, vector illustrations, Photoshop brushes, Adobe Illustrator symbol libraries, computer wallpapers, filter packs, browser add-ons, and other similar products used with software or on the computer often come with a EULA or other statement of the terms of usage. A EULA does not apply only to purchased products. Items provided free of charge may still contain certain restrictions (such as personal use only) and are still protected by copyright.
