What is eula?

EULA is short for a big name. End-User Licence Agreement.

It is the rules for a software. Like a legal contract between you and the company who made it. You see it when you install a new programme or a phone app. A big box with lots of text pops up. You have to scroll down and click ‘I Agree’.

This text is the EULA. It tells you what you are allowed to do. For example, you can use the software. But you cannot copy it and sell it to other people. It also says what the company is not responsible for. If the software breaks your computer, maybe they are not to blame. It is written in the EULA.

To be honest, hardly anyone reads all of it. It is so long! And full of difficult legal words. But by clicking agree, you are saying you will follow all their rules. So it is good to know what it is, mate. It is basically the terms and conditions for using their stuff.
