The Legal Risk Score of a Beta Participation Agreement Template is Low
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- The document allows the Supplier to retain full ownership and intellectual property rights of the software, which means the Customer has limited control and no ownership over the software they are testing.
- The agreement lacks explicit provisions for the Customer's rights or protections in case the software does not meet the expected performance criteria or causes operational disruptions, potentially leaving the Customer exposed to operational risks.
