• Exclusive usage of the delivered photographs or video (the “Work”)
• Photographer will not license or sell the Work to any other party during the exclusivity period
• Optional full copyright transfer, if agreed in writing
Exclusive License Clause
North and Wild grants the Client exclusive usage rights for the agreed scope, duration, and territory as specified in the agreement. The Photographer will not license, sell, or otherwise provide the Work to any other party during this period unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Restrictions
Even under exclusive rights, the Work may not be used to create, train, test, or improve any AI systems or machine learning models unless specifically agreed upon in writing.
Online Sharing & Credit
While the Client has exclusive rights, North and Wild requests reasonable credit when the Work is publicly shared online, where practical.
Copyright
Unless a full copyright transfer is purchased and documented, all copyright remains with North and Wild. Exclusive licensing grants the Client all usage rights but does not transfer ownership of the underlying intellectual property. North and Wild retains the right to use the Work for portfolio, marketing, and editorial purposes unless explicitly waived in writing.
