A **freelance contract** is the ultimate protection for both you and your client partner. Drafting clear clauses establishes expectations regarding budgets, deadlines, intellectual property rights, and termination notice rules. Keep these principles in mind:
Confidentiality
Always protect your client's core data. A confidentiality clause gives clients peace of mind and builds trust during project kickoffs.
IP Ownership
Clearly define when intellectual property transfers to the client. The standard standard practice is to transfer IP only upon final invoice settlement.
Termination Notice
Establish notice conditions. A standard 30-day notice ensures you are compensated for active sprints and gives clients time to plan handover.
