MSSQL 2014 Licensing Question (CAL)

$

Not sure if this is the correct forum, but I have a query on licensing of Microsoft SQL 2014. 

We use MSSQL2014 for our Point of Sale software. We use SQL 2005 / SQL 2008 Express on the clients, and MSSQL2014 Standard edition for the server.

The clients speak to a Windows Service, which then updates the servers SQL database.

If 5 clients are talking to the windows service (which then updates the SQL database), would I need 5 CALs, or just 1. 

So does the Windows Service that actually accesses the database require the CAL license, or does the user that speaks to the windows service require the CAL license still??
