Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before creating your document.

Can this agreement handle both licensing and full assignment of technology?+

Yes. The template includes conditional clauses for exclusive and non-exclusive licences, sublicensing and full assignment. Selecting the relevant transfer type activates appropriate grant language and ownership provisions while ensuring background IP is not inadvertently assigned.

How are open-source components treated under this template?+

Open-source and third-party components can be listed as exclusions. These items remain under their original licences and are not assigned; the agreement emphasises that Licensee must comply with applicable open-source terms to avoid triggering undesirable obligations for Licensor.

Does the agreement address personal data processed by the transferred technology?+

Yes. It explicitly requires the Parties to sign a separate data processing or data sharing agreement where personal data is involved, ensuring compliance with the DPDP Act and related laws without overloading the technology transfer contract.
