What Types Of Intellectual Property Rights Are Available?

There are several types of IP protection available, including:
- Patents: these protect new and inventive technology and processes.
- Trade marks: protects your brand, including logos, words and design factors.
- Registered designs protect the visual aspect, look or aesthetics of a product.
- Circuit layout rights are put in place to protect layout designs or plans of integrated circuits.
- Plant breeders rights: these protect the commercial rights of new plant varieties.

Copyright is also available and gives the exclusive right to copy, distribute, adapt, display, and perform original works such as artistic works, literary works, musical works, software source code, and others. In Australia, copyright is automatically granted to these for the life of the creator plus 70 additional years.
