Thank you. I see that most agreements have the same sort of language about the company maintaining ownership of all work...

you are being contracted out to perform a service that will be entirely owned by the entity you do the work for.

That's the essence of contracting. It's not really any different than working at a company that also owns everything you do on the companies time.
