Question

I found several EULA samples in stack overflow but in all of them it displays company information. I am alone and I want to publich a paid application in android's market.

Do I need to "build" a company? What text should I put in EULA?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Found this one!

OTHER TIPS

I used this free EULA generator:

http://kuikie.com/tools/eula_generator/application.php

You can put in an your individual name or your company name.

In response to the first question, I would recommend that you look for a "click-wrap" EULA template. It allows you to "fill in the blanks".

I am extremely curious about the EULA agreements involving Google. The main reason I say this is because I am not sure if these agreements are intended to protect Google itself, rather than the publisher.

Google specifically states: "Consider preparing an End User License Agreement (EULA) for your application. A EULA can help protect your person, organization, and intellectual property, and we recommend that you provide one with your application."
