Grant of Rights
Specify the exact rights granted (streaming, download, territory, language, platform types), duration, exclusivity terms, and any sublicensing permissions to avoid downstream disputes over content use and monetization.

Signatories should confirm they have authority to bind their organization and follow internal approval workflows before signing.
