English term

fully cleared

English to French Law/Patents Law: Patents, Trademarks, Copyright licence agreement regarding music
Hello,

I can't find the appropriate translation for fully cleared in fully cleared promotional material or fully cleared photographs. Would it have anything to do with intellectual property rights, or is it lnked to the quality of the materials?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you writeaway but giving the entire sentence would not be of any help. The nicely suggested answers have confirmed my understanding of the term regarding IPR. I was wondering whether there could be another technical signification to the terms which does not seem to be the case.

Many thanks Daryo and Fx!

It's legal. Guessing and hoping aren't really great ideas. If accuracy matters, then the actual context is necessary. Otherwise it's wide open to interpretation and conjecture.
Daryo Feb 9, 2014:
in a general way, "fully cleared" would mean that whoever has to check/approve the matter at hand has done it.
If your text is about licensing, the "full check" would be about intellectual property rights.
Having said that, writeaway is right to be cautious, it could as well include (especially in UK) a clearance from "libel lawyers", or from a PR manager.
writeaway Feb 9, 2014:
Please post the entire English sentence Otherwise there is no way to see the actual context.

I understand "fully cleared" as thoroughly checked regarding intellectual property rights – all necessary licences have been obtained, there will be no nasty surprises with unexpected claimants appearing out of the woodwork.
