• Ownership of Intellectual Property: The template clearly states that you, as the surface pattern designer, own the intellectual property rights to your patterns. This ensures that no one else can claim ownership of your work.  
• Licencing Terms: The template sets out the terms under which a third party can use your patterns. This includes the scope of the licence, the duration of the licence, and the fees that the third party will pay for the right to use your patterns. You just need to make sure your front end has the options for them to select their licence and your back end to auto remove any licences that are exclusive from sale to others. 
• Payment: The template allows you to structure payment to be royalties or a one off fee (entirely upto you!) that you, as the pattern designer, will receive for each use of your patterns. This ensures that you receive fair compensation for the use of your work.  
• Copyright Infringement: The template includes provisions that protect your patterns from copyright infringement. It outlines the steps that you can take if someone uses your patterns without your permission.  
• Termination of Licence: The template sets out the circumstances under which you can terminate a licence. For example, if the third party breaches the terms of the licence, you can terminate the licence and stop them from using your patterns.  
• Miscellaneous provisions – the extra legal bits and pieces your Licence Terms and Conditions for Pattern Designers Template needs  
• Overall, our Licence Terms and Conditions Template for Pattern Designers provides you with the legal protection you need to safeguard your creative work. So, go ahead and focus on designing, knowing that your patterns are in safe hands.

IMPORTANT    

Purchasing our fill in your blanks templates for you to customise and ensure they suit you and your business needs, utilising our free resources or having a chat with us as part of a consultation doesn’t create a lawyer-client relationship between you and Foundd Legal (sorry!). It also doesn’t constitute legal advice. Please consult with a lawyer for any questions.  

We do offer templates for countries outside of Australia, you will see on the specific template page which country or countries the template is available for, just make your selection! Unfortunately at this time, we are only offering templates for the countries specified.   

Our templates are however customisable for countries outside of Australia, and whilst they are a good base and potentially save you money getting something created from scratch, it would be prudent to have a lawyer in your country to review the template especially if you have any questions.    You get a single user licence and can re-use the templates you purchase as many times as you want for your own business needs! But keep in mind we’re a small business just like you, offering a service and we need more people like you to help us continue to grow - just like you!  So from the bottom of our humble hearts, thank you for making a legit purchase and not sharing!  Use of this Site and your purchase of any digital products or downloading of any free resources, are subject to our Terms and Conditions.
