Business Description
Understanding the Key Differences A trademark is a symbol, word, phrase, design, or combination thereof that identifies and distinguishes the source of goods or services of one party from those of others. Trademarks are essentially about branding — they protect the names, logos, and slogans that businesses use to differentiate their products in the marketplace. Copyright protects original works of authorship that are fixed in a tangible medium of expression. This includes literary works, music, films, software, and other creative works. Copyright grants the creator exclusive rights to use, distribute, and modify the work, among other rights.
