Contract & Legal FAQs

Understanding outsourcing agreements.

While legal counsel is always recommended for significant business agreements, Zedtreeo includes standard legal protections (NDA, IP assignment, data processing agreement) by default. Most small and mid-sized businesses start without custom legal review and add it as they scale.

Every Zedtreeo engagement includes: full IP assignment (all work product belongs to you), NDA (confidentiality agreement), non-solicitation clause, data processing agreement, free replacement guarantee, and month-to-month terms with no lock-in. Custom legal agreements are supported on request.

Yes — Zedtreeo operates with a US business presence in Wyoming, and US governing law is available for client agreements that require it. This provides stronger legal protections than contracting directly with an overseas entity.

Zedtreeo supports GDPR-aware data processing agreements for businesses handling EU data. For HIPAA (healthcare), and PCI-DSS compliance, we implement additional security protocols, access controls, and documentation tailored to your regulatory requirements.

Absolutely. Zedtreeo can work under your contract template or MSA. Many enterprise clients prefer to use their standard vendor agreements, and we accommodate custom terms, including specific SLAs, liability caps, and indemnification clauses.

All work product, data, and intellectual property belong to you — during and after the engagement. Upon termination, we provide a full knowledge transfer and handover. No data is retained beyond what's required for accounting purposes.

All-Inclusive, No Surprises
