Document background
This Software Subscription Agreement template is designed for use under Swiss law when establishing a contractual relationship for the provision of software services on a subscription basis. It is particularly relevant in today's digital economy where software is increasingly delivered as a service rather than a one-time purchase. The agreement incorporates essential elements required under Swiss contract law (Code of Obligations) and data protection legislation (FADP), making it suitable for both domestic and international business relationships where Swiss law is the chosen governing law. The document addresses critical aspects including service levels, data protection, intellectual property rights, and liability provisions, while ensuring compliance with Swiss regulatory requirements. It is structured to protect both the software provider's interests and the subscriber's rights, providing a balanced framework for ongoing software service delivery.
