Common use of Generated Files Clause in Contracts

Generated Files. “Generated Files” are files that the State creates using the Software and in which the State’s data or results from the State’s instructions are stored. Examples of such files could include, among others, text files generated with a word processor, data tables created with a database engine, and image files created with a graphics application. Applications consisting of instruction sets created with a programming language that the Contractor licensed to the State also would be considered Generated Files. As between the State and the Contractor, the State will own all Generated Files that the State prepares by using the Software, excluding such portions of the Generated Files that consist of embedded portions of the Software. The Contractor or its licensors will retain ownership of any portions of the Software embedded into Generated Files. But the Contractor grants to the State a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to reproduce and distribute to third parties any portions of the Software embedded in any Generated Files that the State creates while using the Software in the manner in which the Software is designed to be used. In the State’s distribution of the Generated Files, the State may not use the Contractor's name, logo, or trademarks, except to the extent that such are incorporated in such Generated Files by the design of the Software when used as intended.
