Assignment: If Voices.com's SurePay service is used, then each party using the SurePay service agrees that upon the purchaser Client approving the release of payment pursuant to the SurePay service, the voice talent Client automatically transfers and assigns to the purchaser Client all right, title and interest, absolutely, to the copyright and other intellectual property in or relating to the final product throughout the world, free of all licences, mortgages, charges or other encumbrances, unless agreed otherwise by the parties in writing.'<br /> <br /> I hope that helps clear up your question!
