Our Interactive Entertainment practice combines our specialist services in digital and data regulation, intellectual property, and commercial contracts to provide an ecosystem of commercial legal support for video and mobile games developers.
We view interactive content as the perfect brew of consumer, data, intellectual property, and commercial law. It thus goes right to the heart of what ‘digital law’ is. That’s why gaming is one of our key areas of industry focus, because it fits our expertise and legal practice area perfectly. Our lawyers have previously advised indie video and mobile game developers specifically in the AR and VR sectors. They are also avid gamers to boot.
Combining our highly relevant legal expertise with our passion for gaming, we support developers on the legal aspects affecting development, publishing, and playtime.
During the development stage, we draft and negotiate software contracts, ensure third party intellectual property (e.g. SDKs and APIs) are used lawfully, and discover how we can best protect your valuable IP. At the publishing stage, we support on getting your app or content listed on various appstores and storefronts by complying with any relevant data protection, online safety, and consumer law requirements. And on playtime, we advise on laws pertaining to child users, anti-consumer practices, and e-privacy for whatever commercialisation model you adopt (e.g. freemium, FTP, DLC). We take into account relevant guidance published by UK regulators, such as the CMA, ASA, Ofcom, and ICO, so that we are armed to deal with any novel or emerging issues in an industry as fast-moving as gaming. We also have an innovative digital brand protection offering that ensures your studio or title maintains that pulling power which draws avid gamers into your universe.
So, the new meta is in – its running Click Digital Law for your legal matters.
