Online and E-Commerce

Whether launching a new online service, scaling a subscription-based model, or enhancing an existing website or marketplace, we help clients ensure their digital operations are built on strong legal foundations.

We prepare and review website terms and conditions, subscription agreements, returns and cancellation policies, and consumer facing documentation to ensure compliance with consumer protection laws, distance selling rules, and e-commerce legislation. We also advise on online contracting processes, payment structures, limitation of liability, and policies governing user generated content.

For technology companies and digital service providers, we support the development of licensing models, API access agreements, reseller and platform partnerships, and service specific documents. We also assist businesses operating hybrid online and offline models, ensuring consistency across all points of sale.

Our work frequently overlaps with data protection, advertising standards, and intellectual property. We collaborate with colleagues across these areas to deliver comprehensive legal support tailored to the needs of digital and e-commerce businesses. Whether entering new markets, expanding platform functionality, or reducing operational risk, we help clients deploy digital offerings with clarity and confidence.
