Technology and SaaS legal services
Technology and SaaS businesses require legal arrangements that reflect the way they operate, deliver their products and engage with customers, service providers and commercial partners. We advise on the contracts and legal issues that arise across software delivery, licensing, integrations, customer relationships and technology collaborations.
At Arnold Hills, we advise on, prepare, review and negotiate a broad range of software and technology agreements, including:
- SaaS and subscription agreements;
- software licensing agreements;
- master services agreements;
- service level, support and maintenance agreements;
- software development agreements;
- website, application and platform terms and conditions; and
- API and integration agreements.
Our advice addresses the key legal and commercial issues within these arrangements, including intellectual property ownership, data use, privacy and information security, liability, indemnities, suspension and termination rights, and the allocation of risk between the parties.
Commercial contracts
Commercial agreements establish the rights, responsibilities and expectations that govern your relationships with customers, suppliers, contractors and business partners. Clear and carefully drafted agreements can help protect your commercial interests, allocate risk appropriately and provide greater certainty if circumstances change.
Arnold Hills advises on, prepares, reviews and negotiates a broad range of commercial agreements. Our advice is tailored to the way your business operates and the commercial purpose of each arrangement, with a focus on protecting your interests, managing legal and commercial risk and supporting the ongoing needs of your business as it grows.
Privacy, data and information security
Arnold Hills advises businesses on privacy and data protection obligations, including those arising under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). This includes advice on the collection, use, disclosure, security and management of personal information.
We also advise on, prepare and review privacy policies, collection notices, data processing agreements, contractual provisions dealing with privacy, data handling, information security and other privacy and data arrangements.
For businesses operating internationally or entering into arrangements with overseas parties, we advise on cross border data arrangements and the application of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where relevant. Drawing on experience from within the automotive software industry, Arnold Hills also assists with matters relating to information security requirements associated with TISAX.
Ongoing commercial legal support
Arnold Hills provides ongoing legal support to businesses that want practical, responsive legal advice without maintaining a full-time in-house legal function.
We work with businesses in relation to their ongoing and strategic legal needs, including contracts, negotiations, customer and supplier arrangements, technology projects, privacy and data matters, and other commercial issues that arise as the business develops and grows.
By building an understanding of your operations and commercial priorities, we are able to provide tailored, commercially informed advice across your contracts, transactions and broader business relationships.
