Standard Form Contractor Licence

Although OS will not normally need to see any contractor licence you issue, there are occasions when they are requested.

The lifespan of a contractor licence is entirely down to you and is dependent upon the scope of the works and or service being provided.

Use an End User licence for this purpose.

They set out the responsibilities and obligations of both you and your contractors in your relationship with OS. If required, you should get your own legal advice on understanding what these clauses mean to you.

No. Should it become necessary (and in connection with the use data that OS manages the IPR in) OS is entitled to recover from you all amounts lawfully due in respect of breaches of IPR made by you and your contractors.

In the contractor licence that we provide, the liability position has been back-to-backed. It is important that, if required, you should get your own legal advice on understanding what these clauses mean to you.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to answer this with definitive guidelines, because any case needs consideration on an individual basis.

At the point the contract is terminated, they can only keep an archive copy.
