Intellectual Property Rights Sample Clauses
The Intellectual Property Rights clause defines the ownership, use, and protection of intellectual property created or used under an agreement. It typically specifies whether intellectual property—such as inventions, software, trademarks, or written materials—will belong to one party, be jointly owned, or be licensed for use by the other party. This clause ensures that both parties understand their rights and obligations regarding intellectual property, thereby preventing disputes over ownership and use of creative works or inventions developed during the course of the relationship.
