Why Website Agreements And Policy Lawyers Go Hand In Hand Lawyered

There exists a word for the complicated, meandering language, which licit documents use to bind two or more parties under legal compliance. It’s called legalese, and without a trained eye to decipher these contents, it can be nearly impossible to read, let alone understand. We’ve seen an increasing number of legal being created in reference to website development terms, but with crucial information and liability limiting sections missing entirely! It is for this reason, website agreements and policy lawyers need to work closely.

Website Agreements

Taking a look at the first half of website agreements and policy lawyers, let us go over what is needed to create a legally binding, all bases covered document.

  • The goal and scope of the project.
    Do you need an entire website made from scratch? Is there some extra functionality you’d require? This section should clearly define what you expect your final product to look like.
  • Responsibilities for both sides.
    How much information will come from your end? How much of it falls upon the web developer? You should ideally have a corporate attorney look over this section of your contract, to ensure your liability is limited.
  • Content and Design.
    Will content be included in the development process? How many times can you ask for redesigning of elements, before it becomes chargeable? Who will provide images and videos, will they be copyrighted under your name or that of your organization? Do they need to adhere to any particular creative licenses? Your best bet would once again, be to hire a copyright lawyer that can manage the specifics.
  • Coding. Dynamic. Testing.
    What language will you site be coded in? Do you require a dynamic design, which would allow you to add content to the site yourself, or would you prefer a static one? How will the debugging and testing process be executed? Which platforms will your site be tested on? This meaty section, forms the most important part of your document.
  • Revisions and Modifications.
    While it is your prerogative to get a site that matches your exact vision, there should be a set limit to how many changes you can ask for. This section of your agreement should clearly state what the scope of revisions in your project is.
  • Intellectual Property
    After you have the final project in hand, will you be owner of the intellectual property, i.e. the code and design? Or will it go to the developer? Web development firms might charge extra to transfer ownership of code. Trademark lawyers and copyright lawyers can further help you keep control of proprietary products, services and ideas.
  • Payments and Signatures
    When it comes to money, there can be room for error. From advance payments and tranche amounts to penalties for missed deadlines, all information regarding payments should be explained in detail. As a final note, don’t forget to include space for signatures of both parties.
