Copyrights and Intellectual Property Rights Clause Samples

The "Copyrights and Intellectual Property Rights" clause defines the ownership and usage rights of creative works, inventions, and proprietary information produced or used under an agreement. It typically specifies whether intellectual property developed during the course of a project belongs to the creator, the client, or is shared, and may outline permissions for use, reproduction, or modification. This clause is essential for preventing disputes over ownership and ensuring that all parties understand their rights and obligations regarding intellectual property.
Copyrights and Intellectual Property Rights. The MATERIALS created under this Agreement by the CONTRACTOR, its employees or subcontractors, individually or jointly with others, shall be considered "works made for hire" as defined by the United States Copyright Act. All of the MATERIALS, whether in paper, electronic, or other form, shall be remitted to the COUNTY by the CONTRACTOR, its employees and any subcontractors. The CONTRACTOR, its employees, and any subcontractors shall not copy, reproduce, allow or cause to have the MATERIALS copied, reproduced or used for any purpose other than performance of the CONTRACTOR'S obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the COUNTY'S authorized representative. The CONTRACTOR represents and warrants that MATERIALS produced or used under this Agreement do not and will not infringe upon any intellectual property rights of another, including but not limited to patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, and service marks and names. The CONTRACTOR will indemnify and defend the COUNTY at the CONTRACTOR'S expense from any action or claim brought against the COUNTY to the extent that it is based on a claim that all or part of the MATERIALS infringe upon the intellectual property rights of another. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for payment of any and all such claims, demands, obligations, liabilities, costs, and damages including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney fees arising out of this Agreement, amendments and supplements thereto, which are attributable to such claims or actions. If such a claim or action arises, or in the CONTRACTOR'S or the COUNTY'S opinion is likely to arise, the CONTRACTOR shall at the COUNTY'S discretion either procure for the COUNTY the right or license to continue using the MATERIALS at issue or replace or modify the allegedly infringing MATERIALS. This remedy shall be in addition to and shall not be exclusive to other remedies provided by law.
