Description

Navigating technology vendor agreements requires a strategic blend of legal expertise, business acumen, and technical understanding. In this course, Talia Boiangin Behar and Tyler Thompson—experienced privacy and technology attorneys—will guide participants through the full lifecycle of tech vendor deals, from negotiation strategies and drafting key contractual terms to ensuring successful implementation and compliance. Attendees will gain practical insights on addressing common risks, aligning agreements with business objectives, and managing data privacy obligations throughout the vendor relationship. This session is designed for lawyers who counsel clients on technology, procurement, and privacy matters or those who work directly with technology vendors and contracts.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Understand the key stages of a technology vendor deal, from initial negotiation through post-implementation.
  2. Identify essential contractual terms such as performance metrics, liability, warranties, and termination clauses.
  3. Mitigate common risks, including data breaches, compliance failures, and project delays.
  4. Incorporate privacy and security obligations into vendor agreements to align with legal and regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, CCPA).
  5. Implement vendor governance frameworks to ensure ongoing performance, compliance, and dispute resolution.
