How did you hear about us?

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of legal agreements does a SaaS business need?

SaaS businesses typically require End User Licence Agreements (EULAs), Terms of Use, Privacy Policies, and Service Level Agreements (SLAs). These documents protect intellectual property, define user rights, and ensure compliance with Australian law.

Do I need to comply with the Australian Privacy Act or GDPR?

If your software collects personal data from Australian users or overseas (especially from the EU), you must comply with the Privacy Act and possibly the GDPR. We can help you draft privacy policies that meet both sets of requirements.

How can I protect my software from being copied or stolen?

Software is protected by copyright law. We help secure your intellectual property through licensing agreements, IP assignments, and NDAs with contractors or employees.

What’s the difference between SaaS and traditional software licensing?

SaaS offers software via a subscription model, typically hosted on the cloud. Traditional licensing involves a one-off purchase. Each model requires different legal frameworks and clauses.

Can I offer different terms to different users or regions?

Yes, but this must be clearly stated and legally enforceable. We can help create jurisdiction-specific terms and scalable contract templates.

How does my SaaS business legally manage integrations with other business software?

To legally manage integrations with other business software, we recommend that you:

  • Have API terms of service that users accept when requesting API keys or activating integrations
  • Review and comply with third party API terms
  • Have a SaaS contract in place that includes appropriate API integration clauses
  • Appropriately manage any personal information and publish a privacy policy
