Which type of beneficiary has no rights under the contract and benefits incidentally?

An incidental beneficiary is someone who benefits from a contract between two other parties, but they have no rights to enforce the contract or to claim any benefits directly. This type of beneficiary might gain an advantage from the dealings of the parties involved in the contract, but their benefit is incidental and unintentional. For example, if two businesses enter into a contract, and as a result, a nearby local business benefits indirectly from increased foot traffic or a related service, that local business is considered an incidental beneficiary. Their lack of rights under the contract means they cannot sue to enforce any terms or conditions, since the contract was not meant to benefit them explicitly. This is what distinctly characterizes an incidental beneficiary as opposed to other types of beneficiaries, such as donee beneficiaries or creditor beneficiaries, who have defined rights related to the contract's execution.
