Frequently Asked Questions
I recently designed my Company Logo but I do not know how to protect it from being copied. What do I do?
The generally acceptable way to protect the logo is to register it as a Trademark at the Trademark’s Registry. Registration confers exclusive use of the logo to you and prevents others from using it without your permission.
What is Intellectual Property?
Intellectual Property refers to an intangible asset or a creation of the mind. These creations include images, artistic works, inventions etc. The various forms include Trademarks, Copyright, Patents and Designs etc.
