License (Accounting)

is a legal document giving official permission to do something.

License (Business)

A contractual arrangement, or a document representing this, in which one organization gives another the rights to produce, sell, or use something in return for payment.

License (Canadian Law)

A special permission to do something on, or with, somebody else's property which, were it not for the license, could be legally prevented or give rise to legal action in tort or trespass. A common example is allowing a person to walk across your lawn which, if it were not for the license, would constitute trespass. Licenses are revocable at will (unless supported by a contract) and, as such, differs from an easement (the latter conveying a legal interest in the land). Licenses which are not based on a contract and which are fully revocable are called "simple" or "bare" licenses. A common example is the shopping mall to which access by the public is on the basis of an implied license.

License (Dream)

To dream of a license, is an omen of disputes and loss. Married women will exasperate your cheerfulness. For a woman to see a marriage license, foretells that she will soon enter unpleasant bonds, which will humiliate her pride.

License (Energy)

License (Entertainment Industry)

As a noun, it means a legal permit; as a verb, it is to authorize by legal permit.

License (Intellectual Property)

Intellectual property rights can be bought, sold, and transferred by granting a license.

In the context of intellectual property, licensing agreements can be used to grant limited and specified rights to use intellectual property.

See Certification, Credentialing.

License (Trademark)
