The Legal Risk Score of a Website Development Agreement Template is Low
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- The document allows the Contractor to appoint sub-contractors to fulfill obligations, which could lead to variability in the quality and timeliness of the work delivered, depending on the sub-contractors' standards and adherence to the main agreement's terms.
- Changes to the final concept of the website after approval can result in significant additional expenses, potentially increasing the overall cost beyond initial estimates if modifications are requested by the Website Operator.
- The document does not specify detailed technical parameters for the website until after the final concept is approved, which might lead to misunderstandings or misalignments regarding performance expectations or capabilities of the delivered website.
