INTRODUCTION

This lesson is designed to give you the understanding of an application software,

how to install appropriate software according to task assigned and required outcome and
understand the value of having a licensed software installed in a computer.

WHAT TO KNOW

What is Software Licensing?

Software Licensing is the legal right to run or the privilege given to you by a
company to access their application (or program).

A license agreement governs the use of licensed software. License agreements

typically allow the software to run on a limited number of computers and allow copies to be
made, though solely for backup purposes.

Sample Licensing Agreement

Benefits of using Licensed Software
By using Licensed Software, you are able to
contribute to the further development of the program you are
using. It also helps the economy generate not just computer
related jobs, but opportunities for other people / businesses
who’s work is much dependent on “written” technology.
Apart from the legal obligation to use Licensed
Software, Licensed Software outright comes with support not
found in “pirated” software.
Software License and Copyright Law
In the United States, Section 117 of the Copyright Act gives the owner of a particular
copy of software the explicit right to use the software with a computer, even if use of the
software with a computer requires the making of incidental copies or adaptations (acts which
could otherwise potentially constitute copyright infringement). Therefore, the owner of a copy
of computer software is legally entitled to use that copy of software. Hence, if the end-user of
software is the owner of the respective copy, then the end-user may legally use the software
without a license from the software publisher. Accordingly, proprietary software licenses
attempt to give software publishers more control over the way their software is used by
keeping ownership of each copy of software with the software publisher. By doing so,
Section 117 does not apply to the end-user and the software publisher may then compel the
end-user to accept all of the terms of the license agreement, many of which may be more
restrictive than copyright law alone.
Proprietary Software
Proprietary software is computer software which is the legal property of one party. The
terms of use for other parties is defined by contracts or licensing agreements. These terms
may include various privileges to share, alter, dissemble, and use the software and its code.
Well known examples of proprietary software include Microsoft Windows, Adobe Photoshop,
Corel Draw, Quickbooks, SAP, etc.
For example, the rights to develop Windows XP or Microsoft Office 2003 and their
release protocols are held by Microsoft. They have the proprietary rights to sell the license to
use their products. The code on how Windows XP was developed from step zero to step one
hundred is theirs exclusively.
In the Philippines, all the software (and hardware) development members of the
Business Software Alliance (BSA) are encouraging the legal use and licensing of their
softwares. Its members represent one of the fastest growing industries in the world. BSA
programs foster technology innovation through education and policy initiatives that promote
copyright protection, cyber security, trade and e-commerce.
