License information
The CUDA end user license is available on the "End User License Agreement" in the CUDA documentation.
After loading the module, the license is also available in the file
$EBROOTCUDA/EULA.txt
or in the usual location,

User documentation
The CUDA
module is provided so that visualisation packages that need CUDA can be
compiled on the login nodes and wouldn't need to be compiled on the visualisation nodes.
This is also because packages for the central software stack (and we do offer some
that need CUDA to reduce compilation time of user-installable packages) can only be
compiled on a special login node due to the underlying distribution mechanism of the
software stack.
The CUDA
module and the visualisation nodes should only be used for visualisation software.
They are not meant to be used with other software that uses CUDA for compute.
Pre-installed modules (and EasyConfigs)
To access module help and find out for which stacks and partitions the module is
installed, use module spider CUDA/<version>

Technical documentation
This module is provided to ensure that we can compile software for partition/D
on
the special software installation node and maintain the software stack.
