Owner of Architectural Decision Records


Who is the owner ADR(architectural decision records)?

Assume that I am a company and I hired one of the big company (AWS, GCP or Azure) to build some cloud products. Their solutions architect must keep have an ADR right? if yes, do I own the right to keep the ADR after the completion or they go back to the company we hired?

I would really appreciate any feedback on this.

ADRs usually aren't something you share externally (take it with a grain of salt, I don't work in consulting).

In the past, I've pushed mine up to a central repository that people can search easily.
