Freeware is software that you can download and use without paying money, though each publisher sets its own rules about what you're allowed to do with it—some let you modify or share it, while others don't. Unlike free and open-source software, freeware typically doesn't give you access to the underlying source code, and there's no single standard definition of what rights you have as a user.
