Copyrights and Ownership Clause Samples

The "Copyrights and Ownership" clause defines who holds the rights to intellectual property created or used under an agreement. It typically specifies whether the creator, client, or another party retains ownership of works such as documents, software, designs, or other materials produced during the course of a project. For example, it may state that all deliverables developed by a contractor are owned by the client, or that the contractor retains rights to pre-existing materials. This clause is essential for clarifying intellectual property rights, preventing disputes over ownership, and ensuring both parties understand how the results of their collaboration can be used or distributed.
Copyrights and Ownership. Nothing in this specification or the subsequent communications supersedes the parties’ obligations and rights for copyright or document ownership as established by the Contract Documents. The use of CAD files, processes or design information distributed in this system is intended only for the project specified herein.
