yeah, I was also wondering if there's a CLA for contributions.

Sorry, I meant to include the license info from their FAQ:

Generally, Overture data is licensed under the Community Database License Agreement – Permissive v2 (CDLA) unless derived from a source that requires publishing under a different license, such as data derived from OpenStreetMap, that constitutes a “Derivative Database” (as defined under ODbL v1.0), which will be licensed under ODbL v1.0.

Does that mean there is not and will not be some copyright assignment, CLA or perpetual transferrable copyright grant?

Because it can have whatever license for now, but with assignments that can be changed going forwards. Not retroactively at least.
