Infringement of Background IP Sample Clauses

The 'Infringement of Background IP' clause addresses situations where the use of pre-existing intellectual property (IP) contributed by a party to a project may infringe on third-party rights. Typically, this clause outlines the responsibilities of the party providing the background IP, such as warranting that their IP does not infringe on others' rights or agreeing to indemnify the other party if infringement claims arise. Its core function is to allocate risk and protect parties from legal liability related to the unauthorized use of background IP, thereby ensuring that the project can proceed without unexpected legal disputes over IP ownership or usage.
