Legit Terms & Conditions
This version is no longer in force. Read the current terms (version 2026.4).
These general terms and conditions (“GTCs”), as they may be amended from time to time as set out herein, govern the use and provision of the Services (as defined below) provided by This is Legit BV (“Legit”) or its affiliates to the Client (together with Legit, the “Parties”). Capitalized terms that are used but not defined in this document shall have the meaning set out in the Order Form (together with the GTCs, the “Agreement”). With respect to either party, the term “affiliates” means any entities that directly or indirectly control, are controlled by, or are under the same control as, such party or any other entities affiliated with such party or entities.
1. SERVICES. Subject to these GTCs, the Client hereby subscribes to, and Legit shall supply, the Services specified in the Order Form. “Services” means the legal consulting services provided by Legit, which may include, depending on the applicable Order Form: (i) AI-assisted review, analysis, redlining, and summarisation of commercial contracts and legal documents; (ii) consultant review and validation of AI-generated outputs by Legit’s legal consultants; (iii) access to Legit’s proprietary platform and associated tools; (iv) legal consulting support for discrete matters as further specified; and (v) any additional legal workflow consulting services as agreed in writing between the parties.
2. FEES AND PAYMENT. The Client shall pay the fees for the Services which follow from the Order Form, or, if not stated in the Order Form, (ii) charged in accordance with Legit’s offered standard subscription plans from time to time. Invoices are due net 30 days from the invoice date. Should any invoice remain unpaid by the due date, interest will accrue on the outstanding amount at the rate of 1% per month, calculated from the 31 day after receipt until the date of payment, as well as a 15% compensation fee on the outstanding amount. Legit may cease acting for the Client if any invoice remains unpaid. Legit reserves the right to revise its fees on or around December 31 of each year.
3. CONFIDENTIALITY. Legit will keep confidential any confidential information, furnished by or on behalf of the Client to Legit in connection with the Services (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall not include information that is or becomes publicly available, already known to Legit, independently acquired or developed by Legit or legally required to be disclosed. Legit will disclose Confidential Information only to its employees, agents and contractors who have a need to know and are bound to keep it confidential, will use Confidential Information only for purposes of performing the Services, including preparing proposals and evaluating potential Services, or as otherwise requested or authorized by the Client. Subject to its confidentiality obligations, Legit may incorporate Confidential Information into its benchmarking databases for use in reporting on sanitized or aggregate trends and metrics without attribution to the Client. All written documents containing any Confidential Information and any other confidential material in tangible or electronic form received or acquired by Legit in connection with its Services shall remain the property of the Client. At the Client’s election and notification to Legit, Legit shall promptly return or destroy any Confidential Information, including any personal data, in its possession or control when the same is no longer necessary for the provision of the Services, provided that Legit may retain such Confidential Information only as required by applicable law, regulation or documented professional archival policy or as otherwise authorized or instructed by the Client. Any Confidential Information so retained shall at all times remain subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, including with respect to confidentiality, security and non-disclosure.
4. DATA PROTECTION. In principle, Legit determines alone the purpose and the means for the processing of personal data in connection with the execution of the Services. As such, Legit will process the received personal data as data controller in accordance with the provisions of the agreement, the Order Form, our privacy notice as may be found on our website and the applicable laws. In certain circumstances, Legit acts as data processor in connection with the execution of the Services. As such, Legit will attach a data processing addendum to the Order Form and will process personal data on Client’s behalf and on Client’s written instructions, in compliance with the provisions of the data processing addendum, the Order Form, the applicable laws and, where applicable, the agreement. Each Order Form shall detail the roles and responsibility of Legit and the Client as data controller or data processor.
5. ACCEPTABLE USE. The Client shall use the Services in a reasonable and proportionate manner consistent with the Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Client shall not submit volumes of contracts that are disproportionate to normal business use or that are intended to circumvent usage limits. Legit reserves the right to implement fair use measures, including throttling or additional fees, where the Client’s usage materially exceeds reasonable use. Legit will provide reasonable prior notice before applying any such measures.
6. AI-ASSISTED OUTPUTS. The Services incorporate artificial intelligence tools to assist in the review, analysis, and drafting of legal documents. While Legit is committed to delivering high-quality outputs and applies human consultant validation as part of its hybrid review process, the Client acknowledges that all outputs generated through the Services are provided for informational and advisory purposes. The Client remains solely responsible for evaluating the outputs and for applying independent professional judgement before acting on, relying upon, or implementing any recommendation, redline, or analysis produced through the Services. Nothing in the Services constitutes a guarantee of any specific legal outcome.
7. DATA USE FOR SERVICE IMPROVEMENT. The Client grants Legit a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use anonymised and aggregated data derived from the Client’s use of the Services, including contract data processed through the platform, solely for the purpose of improving and developing the Services and the underlying technology, including any artificial intelligence or machine learning models. Legit shall ensure that all such data is fully anonymised prior to use, such that it cannot reasonably be used to identify the Client or any individual, and shall process such data in accordance with applicable data protection laws. This licence shall survive termination of the Agreement solely to the extent necessary to maintain improvements already incorporated into the platform prior to termination.
8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Legit and its affiliates or licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services, including but not limited to all intellectual or industrial property rights, whether registered or not, and including applications and the right to apply for registration of any rights, which may be protected anywhere in the world (“Intellectual Property Rights”) included therein, as well as modifications, updates and upgrades thereof. All documents, contracts, data, and other materials submitted by the Client to Legit in connection with the Services (“Client Materials”) shall remain the exclusive intellectual property of the Client. Legit’s rights to use Client Materials are limited to performing the Services and as otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement. The Client will own all deliverables prepared for and furnished to the Client by Legit in connection with the Services (”Deliverables”), save that Legit (or its licensor) retains ownership of all concepts, know-how, tools, questionnaires and assessments, modules, frameworks, software, algorithms, databases, content, models, and industry perspectives developed or enhanced outside of or in connection with the Services (the “Legit Tools”). To the extent the Deliverables include any embedded Legit Tools, Legit hereby grants the Client a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use and copy the Legit Tools solely as part of the Deliverables.
9. MARKETING. The Client grants Legit the right to use the Client’s company logo(s), company name(s), trademark(s), and user quotes as reference material for marketing and public relations material, thereby identifying Client as a Legit customer. Upon the Client’s written request, Legit shall immediately cease any further use of such materials as instructed by the Client.
10. SERVING COMPETITORS. Legit may serve clients that compete or may have potentially conflicting interests with the Client, as well as counterparties in contractual relationships with the Client, without compromising Legit’s responsibility to comply with its confidentiality obligations. In line with this practice, and with Legit’s confidentiality duties toward its other clients, Legit cannot advise or consult with the Client regarding Legit’s work for the Client’s competitors or other third parties. Nothing in this section limits or reduces Legit’s obligations regarding the Client’s Confidential Information, including all applicable confidentiality and non-disclosure duties.
11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. The Client waives any tortious claim related to the liability of Legit, its shareholders, directors, and any other person(s) working for or associated with Legit, relating to any engagement and Services provided to the Client. Neither party will be liable for any lost profits or other indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive or special damages. Legit’s liability arising out of, or in connection with the Services shall, regardless of the specific cause of the damage, be limited to the amount which, in the relevant case, is paid pursuant to the relevant professional liability insurance policy, increased by the amount of the deductibles, if any, which must be borne by Legit pursuant to the applicable insurance policy in the matter concerned. If, for whatever reason, no payment takes place under such insurance, the liability will be limited to the amount received by Legit from the Client in connection with the Services during the relevant year, up to a maximum amount of EUR 50,000. In any event, any right to compensation in accordance with this paragraph shall expire if the claim is not brought before the competent court within one (1) year after the facts on which it is based have become known to the Client or should reasonably have become known to the Client. The limitations and exclusions of liability set out in this Section 11 shall not apply to liability arising from a Party’s gross negligence (grove fout / faute grave) or willful misconduct (opzettelijke fout / faute intentionnelle). This provision is for the benefit of Legit, as well as its shareholders, directors and any other persons working for or in association with Legit, any persons engaged by Legit, and any other persons for whom Legit may be held responsible.
12. NO CLAIMS AGAINST AGENTS. Each party (a “Claimant”) guarantees that it will not make any claim (including based on contractual or extracontractual liability) towards the other party’s (the “Defendant”) directors, executive officers, employees, representatives, attorneys and consultants (together the “Agents” of such party) relating to any engagement or Services provided to the Client. Each Claimant hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to indemnify and hold harmless the Defendant to the fullest extent permitted by law against any liability, loss, expenses (including reasonable legal expenses) and damage whatsoever for claims relating to any engagement or Services provided to the Client by the Claimant against the Defendant’s Agents.
13. TERM AND TERMINATION. The Agreement is valid from the earlier of (i) the Effective Date, and (ii) the date when the Client starts using the Services, and shall remain in force during the initial period set out in the Order Form (the “Initial Service Term”). Unless terminated by either Party with at least 90 days’ written notice before the expiry of the then current service period, the Agreement shall automatically renew for additional periods equal to the expiring Initial Service Term (each a “Renewal Term”). In addition to any termination rights stated elsewhere in the Agreement, a Party may terminate the Agreement for cause (i) upon 30 days’ written notice to the other Party of a material breach, if the breach remains uncured at the expiration of the notice period, (ii) if the other Party becomes the subject to a proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors or governmental regulations, or (iii) if the other Party goes out of business, or ceases its operations.
14. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Legit provides legal consulting services and does not provide regulated legal advice or representation. The provision of the Services is not intended to create an attorney-client relationship. The provisions of the lawyers’ code of ethics or similar deontological rules are not applicable to the Services and are not governing Parties’ relationship. The relationship of the Client and Legit established by this agreement is that of independent contractors and nothing contained herein will be construed to (a) give either party any right or authority to create or assume any obligation of any kind on behalf of the other party or (b) constitute the parties as partners, joint ventures, co-owners or otherwise as participants in a joint or common undertaking. This agreement constitutes a contract for the provision of services and not a contract of employment of Legit or any Legit personnel.
15. PILOT AND TRIAL TERMS. From time to time, Legit may offer the Client access to the Services on a pilot or trial basis (a “Pilot”), as set out in the applicable Order Form. Unless otherwise agreed in writing: (i) a Pilot is provided free of charge for the duration specified in the Order Form and, if no duration is specified, for a maximum period of thirty (30) days; (ii) the Pilot is provided “as is” without any warranty, service level commitment, or support obligation; (iii) Legit’s aggregate liability in connection with a Pilot shall not exceed EUR 1,000; (iv) either party may terminate a Pilot at any time on written notice without liability; and (v) upon expiry or termination of a Pilot, the Client’s access to the Services will cease unless the Client has entered into a paid Order Form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of confidentiality, data protection, intellectual property, and data use for service improvement set out in Sections 3, 4, 7 and 8 respectively shall apply in full during and after any Pilot period.
16. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that such delay or failure is caused by circumstances beyond that party’s reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, pandemic or epidemic, war, terrorism, civil unrest, governmental action or regulation, power outages, internet or telecommunications failures, or the unavailability or failure of third-party systems or infrastructure on which the Services depend (including third-party artificial intelligence providers). The affected party shall (i) notify the other party as soon as reasonably practicable, (ii) use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact, and (iii) resume performance as soon as reasonably possible. If a force majeure event continues for more than thirty (30) days, either party may terminate the Agreement on written notice without liability, and Legit shall refund any prepaid unused fees on a pro-rated basis.
17. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties, and there are no prior or contemporaneous oral or written representations, understandings or agreements relating to this subject matter that are not fully expressed herein or therein. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Belgium. All disputes relating to the validity, execution, consequences, interpretation, enforcement and termination of this Agreement will be first submitted to mediation to reach an amicable settlement. Should this process be unsuccessful, parties will submit their dispute to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commercial Court of Ghent. The following Sections shall survive the termination of the Agreement: 3 (Confidentiality), 4 (Data Protection), 7 (Data Use for Service Improvement), 8 (Intellectual Property), 9 (Marketing), 10 (Serving Competitors), 11 (Limitation of Liability), 12 (No Claims Against Agents), and 17 (Miscellaneous) and any other provision which by law or by its nature should survive. Neither party may assign its rights or obligations under this agreement to any person or entity without the written consent of the other party, not to be unreasonably withheld, provided, however, that either party may assign its rights and obligations under this agreement to its affiliates upon reasonable written notice to the other party but without the written consent of the other party. Assignment shall not relieve either party of its obligations hereunder. Legit may amend these GTCs by posting updated GTCs on its website. All updates become effective when posted. If the Client reasonably considers an update to materially adversely affect it, it has 15 days after posting of such update to bring such matter to Legit’s attention. If Legit is unable to resolve the Client’s issue (including by reverting to the prior language for the rest of the applicable subscription period) within 15 days of Client bringing such issue to its attention, Client may terminate the Services without penalty upon 5 days’ notice and Legit will refund Client any prepaid unused fees.
