Frequently Asked Questions
A: Yes, you can. If a team has created something under a contract, then the assignment of Intellectual Property can be stipulated.

A: Some examples of IP rights are copyright, design rights, trademarks, patents and trade secrets.
A: Moral rights are linked to copyright, but are slightly different. Moral rights relate to authors maintaining control over creative works. The main points to note are:
- that the author has a right to be named on the work,
- the author has a right for the work not to suffer degradation and
- the author has the right for their work not to be show.
A: No, if you draft your intellectual property assignment as a “deed”, as opposed to a “contract”.
