Mobile App Basics Startup Legal Package

Get the Right Legal Foundation in Place Before You Launch

Launching a mobile app creates legal considerations that go beyond building the technology. Your legal documents should establish the rules for using your app, protect your business and intellectual property, and accurately explain how your app collects, uses and shares personal information.

Meyer Law's Mobile App Startup Legal Package gives you customized app terms and U.S. privacy documents designed around your app, its features, users and actual data practices.

Instead of relying on generic templates, our legal team works with you to understand how your app operates and prepares documents tailored to your business and product.

Who This Package Is For

This package is a great fit if you're:

• Preparing to launch a mobile app on iOS, Android or both
• Building a consumer or business-facing mobile application
• Collecting personal information through your app
• Creating user accounts, subscriptions or other in-app functionality
• Accepting purchases or payments through your app
• Preparing an existing app for growth
• Using generic or outdated app terms or privacy documents
• Launching a new version of an existing app with materially different functionality or data practices

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between this and the App Development Legal Package?

The App Development Legal Package focuses on the relationship between your company and the developer or agency building your app, including development terms, confidentiality and intellectual property ownership.

The Mobile App Startup Legal Package focuses on the relationship between your company and the people who use your app, including your app terms and privacy documents.

Many companies need both.

What's the difference between this and the Website Startup Legal Package?

The Website Startup Legal Package is designed for traditional websites and online businesses. This package is specifically designed around a mobile application's functionality, users and data practices.

Does this address app store requirements?

We consider applicable legal and privacy requirements relevant to your mobile app and its distribution. Apple and Google maintain their own platform policies and technical submission requirements, which can change over time.

Does this cover U.S. privacy laws?

We evaluate applicable U.S. privacy requirements based on the information you provide about your business, users and data practices and prepare your privacy documents accordingly.

What if my app has users in Europe?

This package is designed for U.S.-focused apps. If European privacy requirements, including GDPR, apply to your business, additional privacy work may be required. We can help you determine the appropriate scope.

What if my app collects health information or information from children?

Apps involving health information, children's data or other regulated or sensitive information can require additional analysis and documentation and may fall outside this package. Contact us before purchasing so we can determine the appropriate scope.

Does this include a developer agreement?

No. If you're hiring a developer or agency to build the app, our Software Development Package addresses that relationship separately.

How long does it take?

Most packages are completed within 1–3 weeks after your consultation and receipt of the information we need.
