The Software Contract Agreement serves as a foundational document for establishing legal relationships between software providers and their customers in the Netherlands. It is designed to comply with Dutch civil law, EU regulations (including GDPR), and specific software-related legislation. This agreement should be used when implementing, licensing, or providing software solutions, whether they are standard off-the-shelf products or custom-developed solutions. The document covers essential elements such as license terms, service levels, implementation requirements, maintenance provisions, and data protection obligations. It includes specific clauses required under Dutch law regarding liability limitations, warranty provisions, and intellectual property rights, while also incorporating EU-mandated consumer and data protection requirements where applicable.
