Data-protection questions every digital product should answer
Compliance is easier to build into a product than to retrofit onto one. Six questions establish whether the foundations are in place.
21 March 2026
Technology, Data and Digital Business
Technology contracts, software agreements, platform terms, privacy policies, data protection, intellectual property, product risk, and digital-business regulation.
Who it is for
- Software and platform businesses
- Fintech and data-driven products
- Companies licensing or reselling technology
- Teams preparing for investor or enterprise diligence
Typical instructions
- Software licence, SaaS and reseller agreements
- Platform terms of use and customer-facing policies
- Privacy policies, data-processing terms and NDPA compliance reviews
- Intellectual property assignment and protection
- Product and feature risk reviews before launch
Common risks
- Intellectual property that sits with contractors rather than the company
- Data collected without a lawful basis or a retention position
- Service commitments the engineering team cannot meet
- Terms written for one market and reused in another
How the firm helps
- We read the product, not only the contract, before advising on the wording.
- We align legal terms with what the platform actually does today.
- We build documentation that survives enterprise and regulator scrutiny.
