Creative Work Clause Samples

This clause clarifies the scope of materials covered, specifying whether it includes only works created during the contract term or also pre-existing works, and may outline how such works are identified or delivered. Its core function is to ensure both parties have a clear understanding of what materials are subject to the agreement’s terms, thereby preventing disputes over ownership, usage rights, or obligations related to creative output.
