Work product for the customer belongs to the customer unless
specifically stated differently in the contract. It is their
intellectual property. I have coded both as an employee contractor for
several years and it is always understood (unless the contract states
differently) that the customer owns the work product. I have a couple of
tools which I have developed over time, and I specifically exclude these
from the work product in the contract if I expect to use them. If the
customer chooses to argue on those I just do not use them on their
project.
Have you done anything special with regards to their site that you
should have copyrighted?
