What Every Mobile App Developer Needs To Know About Intellectual Property

We're excited to be holding our May MoMo Chi meeting in the brand new 1871 space! This month, Aric Jacover of Jacover Law will present on the following subject:

What Every Mobile App Developer Needs To Know About Intellectual Property
(How To Protect and Use IP To Maximize Profits and Reduce Risk)

Aric will discuss the life of a mobile app -- from development to marketing to sales -- while focusing his talk on the various IP issues that can arise along the way and how to best handle them.

Other elements of his talk will include:

• Distinguishing between the various forms of IP found in mobile apps, such as trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets and publicity rights.
• Safely making use of third-party IP in your app (e.g. software code, music, photos, videos, icons, etc)
• Making sure the IP you developed is owned and protected from unauthorized use.
• Suggestions on handling, storing and rendering user-generated content through your app.
• Tips and best practices for EULAs (End User Licensing Agreement) and Privacy Policies
