Who owns the code the freelancer wrote?
Your options, best first
#1 Do it yourself
Agree ownership in writing
- Write who owns the deliverables once paid.
- Say whether the freelancer reuses any of their own libraries and how.
- List open-source components used.
- Get the source files, not only the running site.
- Keep it in the order or contract.
Safety: Do not assume the platform decides ownership.
Stop and call a pro if: the work is important to your business: have an attorney review the ownership terms.
#2 Instant price check and quote request
