Legal
Amerasource Legal Stuff
As the reproduction of copyrighted works being a direct responsibility of both parties involved (renderer and client), Amerasource Sublimation Services requires copyright license agreements for all artistic work rendered (when applicable). A copyright license agreement (Right to Render Agreement) script can be provided, if needed, for established Amerasource clients.
What is a 'right to render' contract? Better known as a copyright license agreement, a right to render agreement is just that--it gives a vendor the legal right to make a copy, a rendering, and/or sometimes, an adaptation of a copyrighted work or works. It gives one the legal right (permission) to use the license holder's product, i.e., designs, photography, and/or artwork. License agreements are very serious business. If anyone should tell you, the client, that a license agreement and/or permission to render is solely your responsibility; it would be professionally misleading and grounds for judicial infraction by both parties. This responsibility is shared by both client and vendor. Have any questions? Drop us an e-mail
