In a rapidly changing IT environment, unexpected system failures can have a significant impact on both users and providers. To address this, IT companies providing emergency response services in the event of a failure need to build trust with users through terms of service and proactively prevent potential legal disputes.
Recently, Law firm Veat considered providing emergency response services at the request of a client and drafted terms of service accordingly, providing legal advice to minimize the client's legal risk.
The Necessity of Customized Terms of Service
In this case, Law firm Veat received a request from an IT company providing emergency response services to draft terms of service.
The company provided services guaranteeing system continuity through rapid response in the event of a system failure. Terms of service are a core legal document that clearly defines the nature of these services, systematically regulates the rights and obligations between users and providers, and builds trust.
Points to Consider When Drafting Terms of Service
1. Terms of Service Design Aligned with Service Characteristics
To achieve the purpose of terms of service, which is to build trust with users and proactively prevent legal disputes, it is necessary to ensure that the terms perfectly align with the company's business model.
Therefore, when drafting terms of service, it is necessary to thoroughly review detailed data on the service and accurately reflect key aspects such as the scope and conditions of service provision, response procedures in the event of a failure, and user obligations.
2. Minimizing Legal Risk

Act on the Regulation of Standard Contract Terms Article 6 (General Principles) |
If terms of service lack fairness and rationality, they may be deemed invalid under the Act on the Regulation of Standard Contract Terms (hereinafter referred to as “Standard Contract Terms Act”) and related regulations.
Law firm Veat thoroughly analyzed the Fair Trade Commission guidelines and the Standard Contract Terms Act to ensure that terms of service do not contain provisions that are unfairly disadvantageous to users.
3. Building Trust with Users
The person reading the terms of service is unlikely to be a legal professional. Therefore, when drafting terms of service, it is possible to increase accessibility and understanding by using language that is friendly to general users who are not legally specialized.
Law firm Veat's efforts have helped the company build trust with users and strengthen its positive image.
