Document background
This Music Library License agreement is designed for use when establishing a legal framework for the licensing of music from commercial music libraries in Switzerland. It is specifically structured to comply with Swiss federal laws, including the Copyright Act (CopA) and the Code of Obligations, while considering international copyright conventions. The document is typically used when content creators, media companies, or other businesses need to license music for various applications such as film, television, advertising, or digital media. It includes comprehensive provisions for rights management, usage restrictions, technical requirements, and payment terms, with particular attention to Swiss-specific legal requirements such as moral rights protection and collective rights management. The agreement is adaptable for both domestic Swiss use and international licensing scenarios, incorporating necessary safeguards for cross-border music exploitation.
