Software Licensing & Trademark Agreements

Apple provides developers the opportunity to license and use Apple software, technologies and Apple trademarks to build successful products. Regardless of whether your product will be sold, used internally, or bundled with other products, if you wish to use Apple software, technologies and/or trademarks, you need to obtain a license from Apple to do so. Apple's Software Licensing Department works with developers, user groups, and others to ensure they are properly licensed for many of Apple technologies and trademarks.

Please contact sw.license@apple.com for more information.
