Lol, yeah same I had the same issue with checkbox and they asked the lawyers too apparently.
Just to be clear, I'm not claiming you could be sued for making buggy code. As I said I'm not a lawyer and I'm not sure how far it would have to go for programmers to be personally sued for something.
I was referring to if you had your own software development company (or were self-employed), and another company has commissioned you for something, that's business to business. If you didn't deliver what was in the contract (like the software was buggy in this case) you'd be required to fix it or they could probably sue. Not sure if it relates at all to employer-employee relationship. But as I said, I don't want to take the chances.
Ohh I see, yeah that makes more sense. In our case we offer fixes and maintainment as part of the contract. So we are obligated to fix any bugs or issues that might arise after the development has ended and the application has been shipped. I don't know if we could get sued here in Spain for that, but probably yes, as not doing so would break the contract.
I also wouldn't take any chances, better to be covered just in case!
