Proprietary Interests Clause Samples

The Proprietary Interests clause defines the ownership and rights over intellectual property, confidential information, or other proprietary materials created or used during the course of an agreement. Typically, this clause specifies whether such materials remain the property of the disclosing party, are transferred to the receiving party, or are jointly owned, and may outline restrictions on use, reproduction, or disclosure. Its core function is to clearly allocate rights and responsibilities regarding proprietary assets, thereby preventing disputes over ownership and unauthorized use.
