Intellectual Property Rights

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in a signed and active contract, all intellectual property rights, including copyright, in any design, development, code, artwork, documentation, or other creative output (collectively referred to as “Deliverables”) created by Catabolt shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Catabolt.

If a contract has lapsed, expired, or is not currently in effect, but work continues, these default terms shall automatically apply and supersede any previously implied transfer of rights. In such cases, all rights remain with Catabolt unless and until a new agreement is executed that expressly waives or transfers those rights.

In the event of a material breach of contract by the client, such as failure to make payment within agreed terms, Catabolt reserves the right to retain, reuse, adapt, and/or redistribute any Deliverables originally produced for the client. This includes but is not limited to the use of said Deliverables in portfolios, promotional materials, case studies, resale, or further development, without restriction or further obligation to the client.

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. However, they are intended to be enforceable in relevant jurisdictions, including those within the European Union and the United States, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable local laws.
