Document background
The Site License Agreement is a critical document used when an organization requires legal authorization to use software, content, or technology resources across multiple users at specified locations. This agreement type is particularly relevant in the Canadian business environment, where it must comply with federal and provincial regulations while addressing the practical aspects of enterprise-wide technology deployment. The document typically includes comprehensive terms covering license scope, technical requirements, support services, and compliance obligations. A Site License Agreement is essential when organizations need to manage access rights across departments, ensure consistent usage policies, and maintain regulatory compliance while deploying technology solutions throughout their facilities. It differs from individual licenses by providing broader, location-based access rights and typically includes provisions for scalability, technical support, and organizational-level security requirements.
