Patents are a type of Intellectual Property right that grant the owner "the right to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, or selling" the invention in the United States or "importing" the invention into the United States. There are three types of patents; utility patents, design patents, and plant patents. It is important to be aware of the fact that patents protect inventions based on patentable subject matter and not ideas. We cover in-depth details about patents in our Patent Information section.
