Governing Law & International Use
All projects and agreements with Avatarman are governed by the laws of England and Wales. This page explains what that means for clients in the UK and for organisations based in other countries.
In simple terms: UK law governs the agreement. You own the final video. Your local rules still apply to how you use it day to day.
This creates a clear, neutral framework that protects both you and Avatarman, wherever in the world you are based.
What “Governing Law” Means
Every professional services business chooses a legal framework that applies to its agreements. For Avatarman, that framework is the laws of England and Wales.
Governing law determines how:
- Agreements are interpreted
- Rights and responsibilities are defined
- Copyright and usage are understood
- Any disputes, if they arise, would be handled
This does not mean everything becomes “legalistic”. It simply provides one clear, consistent standard for everyone who works with Avatarman.
UK Clients & International Clients
For UK-Based Clients
If your organisation is based in the UK, the situation is very straightforward:
- Your projects are governed by English/Welsh law.
- Your ownership of the final video is protected under UK copyright rules.
- Agreements follow familiar UK standards for commercial services.
- You can use your avatar videos across your organisation without extra licensing or renewal fees.
For International Clients
If your organisation is based outside the UK, you still benefit from a clear, stable legal framework.
- UK law governs the agreement, not your whole business or tax position.
- Your ownership of the final video is recognised under a respected legal system.
- You can use the video globally, across all your regions and platforms.
- You avoid the confusion of multiple competing legal systems for a single piece of digital content.
How This Interacts With Your Local Laws
UK governing law applies to the agreement with Avatarman – for example, how rights, usage and responsibilities are understood.
Your own country’s laws continue to apply to how you operate day to day, including:
- How you host and store video content
- Your internal data and privacy policies
- Employee training and compliance rules
- Any sector-specific regulations you must follow
In other words, UK law governs the relationship with Avatarman, while your local laws govern how you run your organisation.
What This Means for Your Rights
No matter where you are located, working with Avatarman means:
- You own the final rendered video.
- You can use it in your LMS, website, onboarding, training and communications, across all your locations.
- You do not pay ongoing licence fees to Avatarman for using the final file.
- Avatarman retains the creative methods, structures and templates used to produce the content, so we can support you consistently over time.
- The underlying avatar technology remains the property of its provider and is not transferred to you or to Avatarman.
This structure is designed to be fair, transparent and scalable for clients who operate in multiple regions.
Legal note: All agreements with Avatarman are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. By commissioning services from Avatarman, you accept that this governing law applies to our relationship. If you require a formal contract, Avatarman can reflect this same position in your documentation.
