Indemnities in Tech Contracts: Tackling Data Breaches, Patent Trolls, IP Gremlins, and other Monsters
With patent trolls and data theft in the headlines, tech customers want protection, while vendors want to limit indemnity liability. Yet in most cases, neither side really understands the indemnity clause or its typical loopholes and exceptions. Learn about indemnities in IT contracts in this presentation by David Tollen, founder of Sycamore Legal and the author of the American Bar Association’s bestselling manual on technology contracts, The Tech Contracts Handbook: Cloud Computing Agreements, Software Licenses, and Other IT Contracts, for Lawyers and Businesspeople.
