How to protect your work as a developer: licences, contracts and the legal essentials for IT projects

You develop websites, apps or software – but are you sure your client won't take the code without paying, that a collaborator won't walk off with your know-how, and that your work won't end up in the grey zone of disguised employment?In this practical training we will explain the legal essentials that every developer and web professional needs to know. Clearly, using real-world examples and without legal jargon. You will take away specific templates and checklists that will help you protect your code, your client relationships and your business.
