A legally binding agreement between a program's user and the program vendor, stating the terms under which the user is authorized to use the program and usually limiting vendor's liabilities.
Most programs display the end user license agreement (EULA) in electronic form during the installation process and users must agree to the EULA before installation can be completed.
EULAs can be a controversial issue if they are worded in such as way as to be ambiguous, or if they attempt to give the vendor more rights than is legally permissible. In addition, EULAs are often so long, technically challenging and intimidating that many users do not read them completely before accepting them, potentially placing the user in an untenable position if they later face problems with the program or the vendor.
