Binary Licensing

Some IT software is made available to third parties in binary-only  form(1). The software package can be downloaded from CERN provided the organization agrees to the License Agreement. The agreement is established through an electronic procedure, and requires full data of the licensee organization to be provided.

The License Agreement contains an Intellectual Property Statement, Distribution Conditions and a Disclaimer Statement.
