The Patent Disclosure and Licensing Declaration Template for Third Party IPR Disclosures

This form is used to let the IETF know about patent information regarding an IETF document or contribution when the person letting the IETF know about the patent has no relationship with the patent owners. Click here if you want to disclose information about patents or patent applications where you do have a relationship to the patent owners or patent applicants.

Submissions that do not comply with the formal requirements of Section 5, "IPR Disclosures," of RFC 8179, "Intellectual Property Rights in IETF Technology", may be rejected or may be published as general disclosures.

If you have any questions or problems with form then please contact ietf-ipr@ietf.org. We do not accept IPR disclosures by email.
