Deals & Contracts
Eliga acts as technology contract lawyer for SaaS and commercial businesses, supporting contract drafting, contract review and contract negotiation across commercial agreements.
In scaling tech and SaaS businesses, terms are often agreed under pressure. Legal is then expected to stabilise something that is already in motion.
Contracts are not just documents. They are part of how your business runs, reflecting your product, pricing, delivery, risk appetite, and growth strategy.
Agreements Eliga Can Support
Here are just some of the agreements Eliga can support you with, drafted, reviewed, and negotiated as embedded counsel while decisions are still forming and when agreements are live.
We structure licence rights, IP ownership, support obligations, and service frameworks to reflect how your platform actually works. Every term is anchored to how the product is delivered and used, not lifted from a generic template.
MSAs that provide a solid base for ongoing work, so you’re not renegotiating the same points every time. SOWs that set out scope, deliverables, milestones, and acceptance in a way that avoids confusion and keeps delivery on track.
SLAs that make service performance measurable and enforceable: uptime, availability, response times, maintenance windows, service credits, and reporting obligations where appropriate.
Hosting terms that address resilience, security, and operational continuity, covering data location, support, and acceptable use in line with how your systems are set up.
GDPR-aligned DPAs and data schedules — including SCCs, sub-processor provisions, security obligations, and transfer assessments where needed.
Website terms, consumer terms, and supporting policies — including privacy and cookie notices — that reflect user journeys and comply with UK consumer and e-commerce requirements.
Referral, reseller, and partner agreements structured so incentives are aligned without losing control, covering territory, exclusivity, and performance while protecting your brand, pricing, and IP.
Agency and marketing agreements that clearly set out scope and responsibilities — covering fees, IP, and compliance so campaigns can run without unnecessary risk.
Agreements across ad delivery, analytics, CRM, and automation tools, covering data use, targeting, integrations, attribution, revenue share, and platform responsibilities so commercial terms are clear from the outset.
Agreements where models are integrated into products or workflows, covering data inputs, outputs, ownership, responsibility, and risk so the commercial position reflects how the technology is actually being used.
Embedded Support.
Not a Review After the Fact.
Legal input arrives while commercial flexibility still exists, not once direction has hardened and terms are already in play. We shape deals, not just review them.
Embedded counsel means working alongside your team as negotiations develop — responding to redlines, advising on risk, and keeping deals moving without becoming a bottleneck.
Risk is read against commercial reality. We distinguish what matters from what does not, so guidance is practical and proportionate, not theoretical.
Technology regulation, data expectations, and commercial norms are constantly shifting. Having embedded in-house counsel means those changes are understood in the context of how your business operates, not translated from a general legal briefing.
If your business is reaching a point where decisions feel heavier than they should, this is usually the right moment to talk.
A short conversation is enough to understand whether Eliga can add real value to your business.
