InnoCentive provides protection for both Seekers and Solvers. Clearly, if a Seeker uses ideas found in the marketplace where payment is required for use of a solution, and there has been no prior documentation by the Seekers of prior work done by the Seeker, the Seeker would be in breach. However, if prior work had been done and properly documented before solutions from InnoCentive had been reviewed by the Seeker, a Solver is less likely to be successful in a legal action.
What if we see a submission or idea that did not win, but we already knew about it and later use use it? Could the Solver sue us?
