Document background
The Residential Service Contract is designed for use in Austria when establishing a formal agreement between service providers and residential consumers for various household-related services. This document is particularly relevant when setting up recurring services such as cleaning, maintenance, security, or other residential support services. It incorporates mandatory provisions required by Austrian consumer protection law (KSchG), addresses GDPR compliance for personal data handling, and includes specific protections required under Austrian housing regulations. The contract is structured to protect both service provider and consumer interests while ensuring transparency and fairness in residential service delivery. It's especially important for service providers operating in the Austrian market who need to ensure their service agreements are compliant with local regulations while maintaining clear service standards and expectations.
