Hi, I'm in agreement with Kevin. Review work is the intellectual property of the reviewer and should be treated the same way as any other content. I would suggest using a similar licence/policy as other open access material.

Reviewers could then choose whether or not to work with that publisher if they disagreed with the policy. In the absence of an explicit policy, the default should be ownership by the reviewer.
