Background excluded Sample Clauses
The "Background excluded" clause serves to explicitly state that certain pre-existing intellectual property, information, or materials (referred to as "background") are not included within the scope of the agreement. In practice, this means that any inventions, data, or know-how developed by a party prior to the agreement, or outside its scope, remain the sole property of that party and are not transferred, licensed, or otherwise affected by the contract. This clause is essential for protecting each party’s proprietary assets and ensuring that only the specifically agreed-upon deliverables or results are subject to the terms of the agreement, thereby preventing unintended sharing or loss of valuable background rights.
