Data Processing Agreement (DPA)
A DPA outlines obligations between data controllers and processors regarding the handling of personal data under privacy laws. This playbook discusses key terms including processing scope, security measures, and cross-border transfers.
IP Ownership & Licensing
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that all IP created under the agreement is owned by the Company, with specific licensing terms that align with business objectives. Negotiate for broad usage rights to maximize the value of the IP.
Negotiate for joint ownership or a comprehensive license to use the IP for various purposes. Ensure that any restrictions on usage are reasonable and do not hinder business operations.
Essential elements

IP Ownership
Defines who owns the IP.
2
Licensing Terms

Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits if the IP ownership or licensing terms are ambiguous or do not align with business objectives.
EDIT
Reject clauses that fail to clearly define ownership or impose unreasonable restrictions on IP usage.
ADD
Add language to specify ownership and licensing terms if not present.
PRO TIP
Always ensure IP clauses are aligned with your strategic goals and provide flexibility for future business needs.

For collaborative ventures, consider joint ownership with clear governance structures to manage decision-making and usage rights.
International Agreements
In international agreements, ensure IP clauses comply with local laws and address cross-border usage and enforcement issues.
