Law/Patents - Law: Contract(s)
English term or phrase: by implication or estoppel
Another bit from my licencing letter: "All rights remain with XYZ and none are granted by implication or estoppel."

I know what it means but can't think of the German term. Many thanks!

stillschweigend oder durch Verwirkung
Explanation:
By implication means that rights have to be explicitly granted, meaning that the parties cannot assume that certain rights exist.
Estoppel means that rights cede to exist due to non-enforcement etc.

stillschweigend oder durch Rechtsauschließung


Explanation:
CBerelson sounds good and may be right.
LeDocte howxever lists
estoppel = Rechtausschluß, Rechtsausschließung.
A synonymous term in English would be "preclusion". See if that fits the context.

konkludentes Verhalten oder Verwirkung


Explanation:
cberelson is right in both terms. If you want to use a more legal term than "stillschweigend" you can use "konkludentes Verhalten". This means a behaviour that could be interpreted as a certain legal intention.
