n.
A license or contract that appears during the setup of a software program or online service and that requires the user to click a button to agree to the terms of the license.
Example Citation:
"Sometimes a contract is a mouse click away-all of the free e-mail services and commercial ISPs use 'click-wrap' contracts, which, similar to their counterparts for shrink-wrapped software, require users to agree to conditions before using a service. The ubiquitous I Accept button lets the service provider deny responsibility if things go wrong."
