Intellectual property refers to the legal rights protecting creative works and inventions, including literary works, music, designs, trademarks, and trade names.

These rights grant the creator or owner exclusive control over the use and distribution of their work, preventing others from copying or using it without permission.

Intellectual property is protected through copyright laws, patents, trademarks, and other legal mechanisms. This fosters innovation, creativity, and recognition of creators’ rights.
