When photographers take photo's and sell them to their client's , they will want to make sure that the photo is displayed the same as they view it on their system.
ICC stands for International colour consortium. The company that started all this.
A simple example of what ICC is capable off -
When you rent a DVD, on either way of the box there are stated the name of the movie , actors and a summary of the film.
ICC Profiles works very similar to this explanation , they will know how an image is going to look on the screen they are viewed and will tell the user what the darkest and lightest tone and what colours the file is capable off. The amount of range of colours and also the distribution and relationship that there is in each of the tones and colours.
There are two types of ICC profiles , Input and outpute profiles.
An example of how it works in the image below -
