IP & Technology.

Legal counsel for
technology, data, and intellectual property.

Why Org Law

Technology and IP counsel grounded in how your organization operates.

Mission-driven organizations often run on third-party platforms and layered vendor ecosystems. The legal issues rarely sit in one contract. They involve data ownership and use, security responsibilities, incident response expectations, IP rights in content and credentials, and policies for staff, vendors and other stakeholders.

Org Law’s approach is to clarify rights and responsibilities in writing. That means contract terms that reflect operational reality, policy frameworks that can be implemented, and IP strategy that protects the materials and reputation the organization has built.

  • Platform and vendor contracting — Negotiation and drafting for AMS, LMS, exam delivery, event platforms, and other mission-critical systems.
  • Data rights and governance — Ownership, permitted uses, sharing, retention, portability, and exit mechanics.
  • Security and incident terms — Security obligations, audit rights, breach notification, incident cooperation, and risk allocation.
  • AI governance and policy — Practical rules for AI tool use, confidentiality, content creation, and decision controls.
  • IP portfolio protection — Trademark and certification mark strategy, copyright counsel, and registration filings.
  • Content and licensing structures — Contributor agreements, licensing, and reuse rights for education, publications, and digital products.

Platform, Data, and AI Governance Review

A structured review of AI, data, and technology governance.

Most organizations have the same exposure pattern: vendor contracts signed over years, inconsistent data rights, uneven security obligations, and staff using AI tools without a clear framework. This review evaluates platform contracts and core policies as a connected system, with a focus on practical risk and implementation.

What You Receive

A written review identifying material gaps across platform contracts and core policies, prioritized by practical exposure.
