#91145 - Exclusive, or Non-Exclusive Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Jeff Post said:
Since you presumably did "work for hire" (that's what employees and consultants do) the copyrights and/or patents belong to your employer As a Consultant/Subcontractor, that would be a matter for negotiation: If the Consultant agrees to sell all the IP rights to the Client, then the Client owns it; On the other hand, the Consultant may merely give the Client a Non-Exclusive licence to the IP - so the Consultant retains ownership. No doubt the price of the contract would be adjusted accordingly... IANAL. |
