24 BlackBerry Code of Business Standards and Principles
Understand the Implications of Intellectual
Property Rights and Developments
Among our most valuable assets is our intellectual
property (“IP”) – inventions, patents, trade secrets,
trademarks, copyrights, design rights, know-how and
other proprietary information. You are accountable to
establish, protect, maintain and defend BlackBerry’s
rights in all commercially significant intellectual
property and original works of authorship (including,
but not limited to, computer programs, equipment
manuals and databases) and to use those rights in
responsible ways.
You must likewise respect the valid, exclusive IP rights
or copyrighted materials of third parties.
As part of the BlackBerry Employee/Consultant
Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Agreement
you previously signed or acknowledged, virtually all IP
developed in the course of your employment belongs
to BlackBerry. You also have an obligation to disclose
to BlackBerry in writing any development of IP. This
includes any IP that you develop and believe should
be considered an “excluded development” that does
not belong to BlackBerry. If you would like to make a
written disclosure, have any questions about the use
and disclosure of BlackBerry’s and third parties’ IP or
have questions relating to “excluded developments”,
contact the Integrity & Compliance Oce.
Be Compliant in Open Source Development
Open source software is free of charge and made
available as source code, but under licenses that
impose certain legal obligations. Non-compliant
use of open source software can have significant
consequences for BlackBerry, our suppliers, our
distributors and even our customers. Prior to using,
modifying or distributing open source software,
you must obtain approval in accordance with the
BlackBerry Open Source Software Policy.
