It is essential that every business or individual that operates a mobile application (or "mobile app") ensure that there is a binding contract in place with those end-users that access and use the app. These contracts are often referred to as "Terms and Conditions," "Terms of Use" or, more common in the mobile app industry, "End-User License Agreements" (or "EULAs").

Well-written, legally binding mobile app terms and conditions provide a means for mobile app operators to establish the rules that apply to each end-user's use of the applicable mobile app. These rules should include a clear delineation of the ownership rights of the mobile app operator with respect to the mobile app and its associated features. In addition, such agreements can be used to effectively shield the mobile app operator from certain kinds of liability, establish clear payment terms (if any) and set forth terms for dispute resolution that are advantageous to the mobile app operator.
