A copyright protects original works of authorship that are “fixed” in some permanent or semi-permanent medium. It can cover everything from literary works to artistic works, music to movies, architectural designs to computer software. The duration of copyrights depends on several factors, including when the original work was created, where, and by whom. The owner of a copyright can prevent third parties from copying, displaying, distributing, creating derivative works from, and publicly performing the protected works without authorization from the copyright owner.
A trademark is any word, symbol, phrase, design, or other indicia that serves to identify and distinguish the source of the goods or service of one party from those of another party. Some examples of trademarks are brand names, logos, and slogans. Trademarks generally are meant to protect consumers from being confused as to the source of a good or service, though they can sometimes also protect the value of companies’ own brands in the marketplace. Trademarks may be registered with each jurisdiction’s regional trademark office.
Counterfeit products generally are fake or unauthorized copies of real products, which often are of lesser quality than authentic goods. They often contain identical or near-identical copies of a company’s brand, logo, or other identifying features, and therefore can often violate a rights-holder’s various intellectual property rights.
A patent is a form of intellectual property right that protects an invention against unauthorized reproduction, use, copying, or sale. Patents may cover manufactured items, machines, designs, and various other items or processes. Patents may be registered with each jurisdiction’s regional patent office.
