COPYRIGHTS

What is a Copyright?

Copyright is a right granted by statute to the author or originator of certain literary or artistic productions, where the author or originator is invested, for a specified period of time, with the exclusive right to do and to authorize a number of acts. Its most important aspects are the right to make copies and the related right to prevent others from making copies of the work. In the past, copyright has been used to protect literary, dramatic, musical and artistic works in print or written form. Today, copyright protection is utilized as a primary source of protection for computer programs and other works in digital form, which, even when they exist in a form unintelligible to humans, such as object code, are considered to be literary works for the purpose of copyright law.

TRADEMARKS

What is a Trademark?

"Trademarks" include words, logos, designs, symbols or slogans used to distinguish one's goods or services from those of others. A trademark may be registered or unregistered. A registered trademark is a trademark that has been registered at the relevant trademark office. An unregistered trademark is, not surprisingly, a trademark that has not been registered. Trademarks are entitled to legal protection whether they are registered or not. Registration, however, provides trademark owners with certain advantages in enforcing their rights to those trademarks.
