A licensee of an app is an individual or organization that has been granted permission to use the software under the terms of a licensing agreement. This agreement, often called an End-User License Agreement (EULA), defines the rules, restrictions, and conditions for using the app, which is legally necessary because users don’t technically own the software. The licensee is given a license from the app’s copyright holder or publisher (the licensor) to use the app. The user or licensee agrees to the user terms and license agreement. In this type of agreement, when members agree to a license to other members, a member or a user is allowed to use videos or photos for distribution that were originally sourced from members.
