MSA Software Agreement

"I need an MSA Software Agreement for a SaaS platform being licensed to financial services clients in Ireland, with strict data protection provisions and robust service level commitments suitable for handling sensitive financial data."

Document background
This MSA Software Agreement template is designed for use in the Irish jurisdiction when establishing a long-term software licensing and services relationship between a software provider and customer. The agreement serves as the master framework under which specific software licenses and services can be provided through separate order forms or statements of work. It includes comprehensive provisions addressing software licensing, implementation services, maintenance and support, data protection (including GDPR compliance), intellectual property rights, and liability allocation. The document is structured to comply with Irish contract law and relevant EU regulations, making it suitable for both domestic and international software transactions where Irish law governs. This agreement type is particularly important when the relationship involves ongoing services, multiple software products, or phased implementations over time.
