During a POC project, intellectual property (IP) rights are typically handled through the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) and contractual agreements. These agreements clearly define the ownership and protection of IP developed during the project. It is important to have these agreements in place before starting the project to ensure that everyone involved understands their rights and obligations. The software development company may also implement measures such as code encryption and access controls to further protect their IP. Ultimately, an open and transparent communication between the development team and the client is key to ensure a mutual understanding of IP rights and protection.
