Intellectual Property

Q: What is IP and how do I protect it?

A: 'IP' or 'intellectual property' is (a term that describes) a range of rights in different aspects of your business and your products. The most common IP rights are trade secrets (undisclosed commercial information), copyright, registered designs, patents and trademarks. They are separate rights that give you protection in different ways. You may need to consider more than one, or all IP rights, to give your business and your products adequate protection.
