Business Contract

Tennessee

Asked on Dec 5, 2021

Do I need a user agreement for my business?

I’ve recently started my business which is a web-based sentimental message delivery company. Essentially my business allows people to upload written, Audio, and video files to my website (data warehouse is managed through Amazon Web Services), for these messages to be delivered to their intended recipients at a later date in the future or after they pass away. I intended to manage the post-life part by asking the customers to submit their DOB, full name, and most recent address, as we plan to run regular scans against the SSA’s death master. I realize that this is personal information, that may fall under HIPAA penalties. My Amazon expert recommended a user agreement so I’ve been reading up on them, and I just want to confirm this is the appropriate approach. Please advise and let me know what the rate for this user agreement would be through your services. My website is below. Here’s the website: O1morething.com

Software License

California

Asked on Sep 14, 2021

What invalidates a perpetual software license?

What would invalidate a perpetual S/W license under a user agreement that was purchased over 20 years by the customer under a services contract for a unique legacy test system still in use? Would the customer be required to purchase an annual subscription S/W license under a new contract when they are not receiving any additional enhancements, features or benefits for legacy S/W maintenance, training or upgrades since it in stalled on legacy Linux operating system computer workstations? This legacy S/W still operates under it intended use and functions correctly as advertised. Replacing the legacy S/W with new subscription S/W license would also force the customer to purchase new computer H/W at an additional cost and impact other legacy H/W and S/W that interfaces the legacy perpetual S/W. This would create additional S/W develop to test and modify existing code to validate the change would still meet it original intent and test capability. I am curious if this proposal would violate any federal acquisition or ethics rules in attempting to force the customer to pay for a S/W license that are not required to perform its current function providing no additional value because the company has changed their business rules to follow the current trend to charge customers for subscription based S/W license? Their justification is they are charging another customer an annual subscription S/W license so we should also be required to go along with their new business rules.

Octavia P.

Answered Sep 24, 2021

A perpetual license generally authorizes use of a specific version of a software program indefinitely with the payment of a single upfront fee. However, software companies usually limit supplemental support and updates to a specific time (i.e., three years) and when that period ends, gives the customer the option to use the current version with or without paid support. Consequently, if there is a perpetual license in place your company should be free to continue to use your particular version of the software indefinitely without the requirement to move to a subscription-based plan unless your company requires tech support or any type of update/upgrade to continue to use the software which does not seem to be the case here. Nevertheless, the original user agreement and any ancillary agreements should be reviewed to determine factors such as the actual type of license and the powers/rights of the software vendor and your company to terminate or invalidate the license. If you would like a legal review of the user agreement/services contract you can post a contract review project on this platform, based on your question, to receive and compare multiple proposals from licensed attorneys who are registered and verified. Once you receive a response from an attorney you will be able to correspond through the platform to help with your decision to hire that attorney for the project.

Independent Contractor Agreement

Washington

Asked on Nov 10, 2023

How to terminate an independent contractor agreement?

I am an independent contractor who recently entered into an agreement with a company. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I need to terminate the agreement. I am looking for advice on how to do so in a way that is legally compliant and protects my interests.

Merry A.

Answered Nov 28, 2023

I cannot give legal advice in this question/answer format, and no attorney/client relationship is formed. However, first read through your contract and find the paragraph(s) that deal with the termination of the contract. Next, contact an attorney for at least a 30 minute consultation prior to making any moves. Finally, contact the company and explain that you need to terminate, and why, and express the hope that you can terminate on a "win win" no hard feeling basis.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
