Blog The logo was designed by a graphic designer friend, a colleague from work, a neighbor's son or a freelancer from Allegro. I don't remember anymore because it was a long time ago. Or I drew it and the graphic designer vectorized it for me, creating an electronic version. Oh no, I already know! This was done by the company that designed my first business cards or shop. If the above statement seems ridiculous to you, you would be surprised how often I come across such explanations from new clients. And when the company starts to bring more income, problems begin, which you can avoid by reading this article.
Who owns the logo? The logo has an author. The author (creator) has inalienable moral rights to it . They give him the opportunity to call himself the author of the logo. You, as the client, can purchase copyright from the author , which allows you to use it in the fields of Phone Number List exploitation specified in the contract. And here lies the source of all problems, the lack of an agreement on the transfer of copyright to the logo . If I paid for the logo, does it become mine? You commissioned the logo from a graphic designer who invoiced you.

Even the invoice calls it " logo design with copyright and copyright". Unfortunately, such a provision is ineffective under the Copyright Act - just like an oral declaration. The transfer of these rights must take place in the form of a contract precisely defining the fields of exploitation of the work. I came up with the logo, and the graphic designer just recreated it You drew a logo on a piece of paper and the graphic designer only made an electronic version without any additional changes? If you have evidence of this, you are in a winning position.
