How does the technology escrow program work?

DataBank knows the importance of quickly establishing fair escrow agreements. We expertly negotiate terms and review each agreement to ensure it can be effectively processed. In many cases, requirements are met by quickly adapting one of our standard DataBank agreements. DataBank verifies deposits as documented and safeguards them in environmentally-controlled, highly secure, state-of-the art vaults. In addition to maintaining a secure environment, DataBank experts also ensure that the conditions for access are carefully defined and that all access is accurately monitored, processed and recorded.

For licensees, we protect your investment by placing the source code in escrow. DataBank serves as a neutral third party by securing the escrow and other relevant information in our dedicated media vaults. Only pre-determined conditions and procedures can trigger the release of the deposited material. For developers, access to your technology assets is securely controlled. Clients can rest assured that access to critical intellectual property is available if a business disaster strikes. It’s a win-win.
