Non Exclusive Copyright Licence

"I need a Non Exclusive Copyright Licence to allow a software company to use my photography portfolio in their marketing materials from January 2025, while retaining my right to license these images to others and requiring attribution of my work."

Document background
A Non Exclusive Copyright Licence is essential when copyright owners wish to maintain control over their intellectual property while generating revenue or value through multiple licensing arrangements. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, establishes the terms under which copyrighted works can be used, including scope, duration, territory, and payment terms. It's particularly relevant in situations where exclusivity isn't required or desired, and the copyright owner wants to retain the flexibility to grant similar rights to other parties. The agreement ensures compliance with UK copyright legislation while protecting both parties' interests.
