Frequently Asked Questions

DigestaNCode conducts license audits, reviews third-party and open source dependencies, drafts and negotiates software licence agreements, and advises on commercialisation pathways. Our approach focuses on clarifying rights and obligations so that business and technical teams can manage software assets with reduced legal friction.

We map open source components, identify applicable licences, assess compliance gaps, and propose remediation steps such as replacing components, applying permitted exceptions, or implementing operational controls. Recommendations are tailored to your release policies and distribution channels to minimise licensing exposure while preserving project objectives.

Yes. We draft licences and related commercial agreements that reflect your distribution, support and monetisation model. Drafting emphasises precise grant language, limitation of liability clauses consistent with market practice, and clear definitions of permitted use cases to reduce downstream disputes and integration risk.

Provide source code inventories, dependency manifests, existing licence files, third-party agreements, and distribution channels. Also include build and deployment processes. These materials allow an efficient initial scoping so we can prioritise components that warrant immediate attention.

A focused review of a single software licence or standard commercial contract can often be completed within several business days. More complex agreements involving integrations, multiple jurisdictions or bespoke commercial terms may require additional time for negotiation and client input. We provide a timeline estimate after initial scoping.

Yes. We assess contractual obligations against applicable Malaysian and cross-border data protection requirements and coordinate with technical teams to align contractual clauses with implementation measures. For specialised regulatory issues we collaborate with subject-matter advisors to ensure a practical compliance outcome.
