Question

Is it permissible for me to give money to my brother who is getting married now so that he can buy Otzar HaChochma, and I use the software? The issue lies in the attached contract.

Answer

Shalom and blessings 

It is forbidden to transfer or sell. 

The seller explicitly states in the contract as follows:

The groom hereby commits that the software he purchased (or was purchased for him) in the 'Groom's Offer' is intended for him and not for another person, even if he is a family member. The software cannot be transferred to another person, neither as a gift nor by sale, until 3 years have passed from the date of purchase.
