Law firm Veat undertook a collaboration agreement review for Veat’s client, a mobility service company (hereinafter referred to as “Client”), in order to integrate the Client’s self-developed mobility application with a platform operated by major domestic automobile manufacturers.

The Client, during the process of integrating its mobility application with a platform operated by major domestic automobile manufacturers, requested legal advice from Law firm Veat.

From the perspective of a relatively small client, the most important consideration is whether the Client’s technology or source code is disclosed to the other party, or whether the other party is granted usage rights, and these clauses are not included in the agreement. It is necessary to consider the Client’s IT technology and the specifics of its algorithms. This requires a legal review from an IT perspective, and Law firm Veat’s IT Legal Advisory Team conducted a comprehensive review focusing on these aspects.

Reasons for the need for IT-specific legal review for mobility services and other IT issues.

Mobility services, such as digital platform-based services, are one of the key areas receiving increasing attention in various industries. Moreover, the utilization, sharing of data, and interconnection of these digital platform-based services are rapidly expanding. In this collaborative process, the Client may fall into a situation where it cannot protect its own technology, and important company technologies, business models, and data security issues require a review by IT specialists, and then a collaboration agreement review is necessary for safe and efficient collaboration.

In this process, it is necessary for the lawyer to understand how the Client’s service is composed, how data flows, and what technical peculiarities there are, from the perspective of a developer, and to communicate these findings to the Client in a way that is easy to understand, including legal issues and solutions.
