Common use of Access and Use Clause in Contracts

Access and Use.

In the event that Contractor’s contributions are for any reason deemed not to have been a work made for hire, Contractor hereby assigns to MassCEC any and all right, title, and interest that the Contractor has, including any copyright or patent, in the work created or performed in the scope of the Services. Contractor, both during the Term and subsequently, shall cooperate with MassCEC to perfect, enforce, defend, and prosecute all such rights. Contractor represents and warrants that Contractor’s contribution will not infringe on any copyright, right of privacy, or personal or proprietary rights of others. If Contractor delivers or uses materials subject to the rights of any third parties (e.g., requiring permission from a copyright owner), Contractor will provide all information required of the person or entity to use such materials without infringing on any copyright, right of privacy, or other personal proprietary right of such third party. If Contractor provides to MassCEC or uses in the performance of the Services any material to which Contractor claims copyright, patent, or other interests or rights for itself, such use or delivery shall be deemed to be an assignment of such material, interests, and rights to MassCEC, unless a contrary agreement is reached in writing, between the Parties, prior to such delivery or use.
