When we use the term intellectual property we are talking about the original creations that are formed in the mind and expressed through any medium, whether tangible or not. In this context, it is essential to address what each of the symbols that accompany intellectual property mean, because they grant exclusive prerogatives to authors and inventors. This text will discuss the meaning, use and characteristics of the symbols: © (Copyright), TM (Trade Mark), ® (Registered) and SM (Service Mark).
