PATENTS OR COPYRIGHT Sample Clauses

The "Patents or Copyright" clause defines the ownership, use, and protection of intellectual property created or used under an agreement. It typically specifies whether inventions, designs, or written materials developed during the course of a project belong to the creator, the client, or are shared, and may outline procedures for disclosing and protecting such rights. This clause is essential for clarifying who holds the rights to intellectual property, thereby preventing future disputes and ensuring that both parties understand their obligations and entitlements regarding patents and copyrights.
