Description

A "trademark" is a word, design or combination used by an individual or a business to identify its goods or services. In some cases a trademark can also be a sensory mark--a sound, a color or a smell. Trademarks protect names used to identify goods (or services) and their source of origin. The law protects trademarks in part because trademarked items tend to carry with them certain quality assurances. You may use any kind of name or symbol as a trademark to identify your product. A license is a contractual right that gives someone permission to do a certain activity or to use certain property owned by someone else. Licensing agreement is an agreement between two enterprises allowing one to sell the other's property such as products or services and to use their name, sales literature, trademarks, copyrights, etc. in a limited manner. The stylized logo (also known as a design mark) is used to register words and/or letters having a particular stylized appearance, a mark consisting of a design element, or a combination of stylized wording and design. In other words, a design mark can protect a logo with or without words.
