Technology, Software and Digital Services

We make the scope of work, technical specification, development stages, schedule, payment, change requests and acceptance tests clear in the contract. We address website, mobile application, enterprise software and system integration projects according to their specific needs.

We arrange delay, defect, incomplete performance, maintenance and warranty provisions together with the responsibilities of the customer and the developer.

We assess staged payment, payment tied to acceptance testing, security, contractual penalty, warranty and compensation arrangements on a project-specific basis. Limits of liability and insurance provisions are reviewed by considering mandatory rules, fault and the nature of the claim.

We determine which files, records and tests will document the delivery, and the scope of access to source code, code repository, administrator accounts, database, domain name and server.

Installation documents, backups, third-party accounts and the possibility of independent use are evaluated. Delivery of source code and transfer of intellectual property rights are separate legal matters and are governed according to the nature of the contract.

To ensure service continuity, contracts may be prepared for keeping source code and technical documents with an independent escrow agent. The update and verification arrangement, the conditions that trigger delivery and the right of use after delivery are clearly set; an escrow arrangement alone does not create a transfer of intellectual property rights.

We review the rights to use, reproduce, modify, distribute and sublicense, together with limits on term, territory, users and purpose of use. Ownership of contributions by employees, freelance developers and subcontractors is clarified.

The requirement that contracts on economic rights be in writing and that the rights be separately identified is taken into account. Payment of a fee alone does not mean that all rights have been transferred.

In subscription-based software services (SaaS), hosting, cloud and data center relationships, we review availability, support periods, outages, backup and liability provisions.

Service level commitments, price changes, renewal, termination, data export and transition support in case of a provider change are arranged together.

We review the license terms of open source software, application programming interfaces (API), plug-ins and external data services. Commercial use, distribution, attribution and source code sharing obligations are assessed.

The impact of third-party components on the project, their usage fees and the continuity conditions after the contract ends are clarified.

We assess the roles of data controller and data processor, processing purposes, legal grounds, notice, retention and deletion processes according to the service model.

Customer, employee and user data are addressed together with data subject application management, supplier contracts and administrative measures. Explicit consent is not assumed to be the single or mandatory basis for every data processing activity.

We review data flows with cloud services, support teams and group companies located abroad. We assess the legal mechanism, contract and notification processes appropriate to the nature of the transfer.

We check whether standard contracts match the roles of the parties and the actual data flows. Serving foreign customers does not by itself mean that all foreign regulations apply.

In artificial intelligence development, integration and usage contracts, we review data sources, confidentiality, use for training purposes, use of outputs and the allocation of liability.

Human oversight, the risk of incorrect output, supplier terms, employee usage policies and record-keeping arrangements are determined. Dependence on third-party platforms and the conditions for exit from the service are assessed.

In unauthorized access, data leakage, ransomware and service outages, we address the protection of records, contractual notifications and legal remedy options.

Notification requirements to the relevant authorities and individuals are assessed case by case. Technical response and digital forensics are carried out by the relevant teams; the legal process is coordinated with this work.

In venture formation, partnership, investment, share transfer and company acquisition processes, we provide legal due diligence and contract support. Intellectual property rights, customer contracts, data obligations and personnel relations are reviewed together.

Pre-investment conditions, management authority, closing and post-transaction commitments are determined. Tax, valuation and financial audit are coordinated with separate expertise.

We prepare employment contracts, remote work, confidentiality, trade secret, intellectual property and freelance contractor agreements. The use of subcontractors and the limits of authority are reviewed.

On termination, the validity of provisions on the transfer of accounts, devices, documents and access, as well as provisions on non-competition and customer relationships, is assessed according to the concrete circumstances.

In contracts with foreign customers and suppliers, we review the governing law, competent court, arbitration, language, payment and the enforceability of decisions.

We conduct transactions connected to Türkiye in Turkish, English, German and Russian. Where foreign law or local representation is required, the scope of work is determined separately.

For platforms, marketplaces, online subscriptions and digital content services, we review user terms, prior information, cancellation, refund and complaint processes.

The business’s status as seller, service provider or intermediary is determined. Consumer relations, e-commerce obligations and commercial electronic message practices are assessed together.

In web development, SEO, advertising, social media and content production services, we define the work to be delivered, reporting, budget, account ownership and authority.

Delivery of advertising accounts, domain names, content and analytics data is addressed together with platform rules, intellectual property rights and post-contract access.

We review disputes over rights ownership, unauthorized use, access blocking and transfer of domain names, brands, app store, advertising and social media accounts. Transfer of accounts held by an employee or agency, and applications to platforms, are assessed on the basis of concrete authority and records.

In game development, publishing, app store and digital content contracts, we review revenue sharing, licensing, publishing authority and termination conditions.

User data, age-appropriate service design, specific considerations for children, content rights and consumer claims are addressed according to the nature of the service.

In claims for undelivered software, incomplete work, access blocking, license infringement, receivables and compensation, we assess the contract together with the technical records.

Based on correspondence, versions, tests, payment and access records, we determine options for formal notice (ihtar), negotiation, mediation where applicable, litigation and interim legal protection.
