Protection of sensitive information, negotiation and commercial position before closing the main transaction.

An international technology contract doesn't just protect a business relationship. It protects the product, code, monetization model, distribution channel, data, and the degree of control over the technology. When these aspects aren't properly addressed, the conflict doesn't just affect the contract; it affects the business.
Drafting or reviewing international technology contracts in Spain requires precisely defining the applicable law, jurisdiction, licensing, ownership of the development, liability, service level, and termination. This legal framework is what allows the operation to be sustained and enables an effective response should the relationship deteriorate.
We have worked from Spain on issues related to countries such as Mauritania, Indonesia, Vanuatu, the USA, Argentina, Cuba, Panama, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK, France, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and Germany, among others.
An international technology contract is an agreement that binds more than one country to regulate the sale, licensing, development, integration, or exploitation of technology. The international dimension can arise from the parties involved, the place of performance, the applicable law, or the forum designated for resolving disputes.
A company needs an international technology contracts lawyer in Spain when it is going to draft, review or negotiate a software, SaaS, development, license, integration or technology partnership contract with effects in Spain or with parties located in other countries.
Drafting an international technology contract involves building the agreement from scratch. Reviewing one involves analyzing an existing document, identifying risks related to intellectual property, liability, data, SLAs, payments, or termination, and tailoring the contract to the specific position the company needs to protect.
It's advisable to review the applicable law, jurisdiction, usage license, service level, support, software ownership, data processing, liability, payments, and contract termination. These points typically define the company's true position if the relationship becomes strained.
The scope of the license, including territory, usage restrictions, sublicenses, royalties, duration, termination, and intellectual property protection, must be clearly defined. In international licenses, these points are essential for monetization and control of the product.
An international software development contract must precisely define deliverables, milestones, acceptance, warranties, code ownership, use of third-party libraries, liability, payments, and consequences of delay or non-compliance.
An international SaaS contract is an agreement whereby a provider grants a client the right to use cloud-based software in a multi-country environment. It typically combines software licensing, ongoing service provision, support, service level agreements (SLAs), and data processing.
An international SLA reviews availability levels, response times, support, incidents, service credits, exclusions, compliance testing, and the consequences of non-compliance. In technology operations, the SLA is often one of the most critical elements of the contract.
Data protection must be clearly defined when the product or service involves the processing of personal data, access to customer information, or cross-border service provision. In SaaS and technology contracts, this point is often linked to Data Protection Agreements (DPA), security, sub-processors, and international data transfers.
Yes, in many cases. An international NDA protects sensitive information, product, know-how, roadmap, and negotiating position before closing a license, investment, integration, or agreement with a technology partner.
