Document background
The Web Development Contract serves as a crucial legal framework for organizations or individuals seeking to engage professional web development services in Pakistan. This document is essential when commissioning the creation, redesign, or significant modification of websites or web applications. It carefully balances the interests of both the development company and the client while ensuring compliance with Pakistani legislation, including the Electronic Transactions Ordinance 2002, Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act 2016, and the fundamental Contract Act 1872. The contract typically covers project specifications, timeline, payment structure, intellectual property rights, acceptance testing, and maintenance terms. It's particularly important for protecting both parties' interests in digital projects where deliverables are intangible and project scope can be complex.
