What is a Copyright Licence Agreement (Artistic Work) ?
A Copyright Licence Agreement (Artistic Work) allows a copyright owner to permit the other party to use an artistic work in return for a licence fee. The copyright owner has exclusive rights to the artistic work.
A Copyright Licence Agreement (Artistic Work) is a licence and not an assignment; therefore the ownership of the copyright remains with the copyright owner.
A Copyright Licence Agreement (Artistic Work) sets out how, where, and when the artistic work may be used. It also provides information about existing licences that the copyright owner may have issued to other parties.
