Exclusion from Dedication Clause Samples

The Exclusion from Dedication clause defines which parts of a work or intellectual property are not included in a public dedication or open license. In practice, this clause specifies certain materials, such as trademarks, logos, or third-party content, that remain under the owner's control and are not released for public use, even if the rest of the work is. Its core function is to protect specific rights or assets from being unintentionally given away, ensuring that the owner retains control over designated elements while allowing broader use of the remaining work.
