PDPA and Privacy Compliance
Ensuring that your software business adheres to Singapore’s Personal Data Protection Act is a key priority for safeguarding user trust and minimizing regulatory exposure. SoftwareLaw provides end-to-end support for privacy impact assessments, cookie management, user consent frameworks and breach response planning. We draft privacy policies, implement secure data handling protocols, and conduct staff training sessions to align internal practices with legal obligations. By embedding privacy considerations early in the development cycle, we help you establish transparent processes that demonstrate accountability and foster stronger client relationships in an increasingly data-driven landscape.
Licensing, SaaS Agreements and Vendor Contracts
Software agreements form the backbone of any software business, whether licensing white-label solutions, delivering SaaS platforms or engaging third-party developers. Our legal team excels at drafting and reviewing master services agreements, open source licence compliance addenda, service level commitments and subcontractor terms. We focus on precise definitions of deliverables, clear termination rights, tailored indemnities and liability limitations. This clarity not only mitigates disputes but also streamlines negotiations, allowing your business to move quickly while retaining control over IP ownership, risk allocation and support obligations.
Mediation, Arbitration and Advisory Support
When disagreements arise over software licences, service performance or IP ownership, SoftwareLaw provides strategic guidance for dispute resolution. We analyse contractual provisions, correspondence and usage logs to tailor an approach that emphasizes negotiation or formal processes such as mediation and arbitration under relevant rules. By identifying practical, commercially driven solutions early, we help contain costs and preserve professional relationships. Our advisory support extends beyond a single matter, offering post-resolution reviews to refine contract templates and internal protocols, reducing the potential for future disputes.
