A click-wrap license is an agreement that a computer user accepts by clicking on a specific location on the screen. It is like a digital version of a shrink-wrap license. Once the user accepts the agreement, they may not need to do so again, but there may be a clause that requires ongoing acceptance of any changes to the agreement's terms. This type of agreement is also called an e-contract, click-wrap agreement, user agreement, website-user agreement, or web-wrap agreement.
A click-wrap license is an agreement that a computer user accepts by clicking on a button or link on a website or software program. This type of agreement is also known as a point-and-click agreement or a web-wrap agreement.
For example, when you download a new app on your phone, you may be presented with a click-wrap license agreement that you must accept before you can use the app. The agreement may include terms and conditions that you must agree to, such as how you can use the app and what data the app can collect from your device.
Click-wrap licenses are often used to protect the intellectual property rights of software developers and website owners. By accepting the agreement, users agree to abide by the terms and conditions set forth in the license.
