This licence is contingent upon the Customer’s full payment of all sums due to IGD for the Services and acceptance of the Deliverables. IGD will own and retain ownership of all Intellectual Property Rights of any kind in the Deliverables, Documents, Background Materials, IGD working papers (if any) and in all other reports, materials, documentation, software, system interfaces, templates, methodologies and processes and ideas and concepts and techniques that IGD may use or develop in connection with this Agreement (other than materials provided to IGD by the Customer in which the Customer and/ or its third party licensors shall retain intellectual and other proprietary rights).

5.2

For the avoidance of doubt, each Party shall not have any rights over or to use the Intellectual Property Rights of the other Party other than as expressly provided under this Agreement.

The Customer shall always accredit creation of the Deliverables to IGD in such form of accreditation as is required by IGD from time to time, whenever the Deliverables are reproduced in full in the manner and for the purposes envisaged by this Agreement.

1. use all reasonable endeavours to obtain authority from IGD to use the Deliverables for that purpose and in that manner so as to be able to accredit creation of the Deliverables to IGD; but
2. not otherwise accredit creation of the Deliverables to IGD.

5.5

The Deliverables and any other information we provide to you are for your exclusive use and should be used solely for the internal business purpose described in the Brief. They must not be used for any other purpose, recited or referred to in any document, copied or made available (in whole or in part) to any other person without our prior written express consent. You acknowledge that were you to do so (and without limitation) this could expose us to a risk that a third party who otherwise would not have access to the Deliverable might claim to have relied upon the Deliverable to its detriment and might bring or threaten to bring an action, claim or proceedings against us.

5.6

Except as expressly provided by the Agreement, no person other than you may rely on the Deliverables and/or information derived from them and we accept no responsibility to any other person to whom the Deliverables are shown or into whose hands they may come.

We have no responsibility to update any Deliverable for events occurring after acceptance of that Deliverable unless provided otherwise in the Agreement, nor to monitor its continuing relevance or suitability for your purposes.
