Affordable Patent Agency is property right granted by a governmental authority to the inventor. In the United States of America, this authority is the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The property right is granted for a limited time to the application owner, enabling the inventor the right to exclude others from making, using, selling, or importing their invention within the U.S.A. and its territories (whichever country grants the patent). There are NO world‐wide patents.
