Document background
The Academic Software License agreement, governed by Danish law, is designed for situations where software developed within academic institutions needs to be licensed for research, educational, or collaborative purposes. This document is essential when universities, research institutions, or academic departments need to establish clear terms for sharing their software while protecting intellectual property rights and ensuring proper attribution. It addresses specific academic requirements such as research use rights, publication permissions, and collaborative research scenarios, while incorporating necessary provisions from Danish copyright law, data protection regulations, and academic institution policies. The agreement is particularly relevant for research projects, educational programs, and academic-industry collaborations where software sharing is integral to the research or educational process.
