The Software Usage Agreement serves as the primary legal framework governing the relationship between software providers and users in New Zealand. This document is essential when deploying software solutions, whether for individual users, businesses, or enterprise customers. It incorporates requirements from key New Zealand legislation, including the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017, Privacy Act 2020, and Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. The agreement typically covers licensing terms, usage rights, data protection, service levels, support provisions, and compliance requirements. It's designed to protect both the intellectual property rights of the software provider and the interests of users while ensuring clear guidelines for software deployment and usage.
