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.

FAQ

There is no proscribed form for the assignment, but by statute it must be in writing and duly executed. The assignment will be checked for accuracy by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) so make sure the information in the application matches the assignment document.

The term 'assignment' and 'license' cannot be interchanged. A license is different from an agreement. Generally, in absence of any provision to the contrary, the assignee becomes the owner of the assigned work, whereas in case of a license the licensee gets the right to exercise particular rights only.

The Act allows a registered proprietor to assign or license out the use of his trademark. The assignment and licensing can be made with or without the goodwill of the business concerned. A trademark need not be registered to be assigned or licensed.

Instead, a trademark must be assigned through an Assignment of Rights. That Assignment must transfer not only the trademark and the registration, but must also transfer the goodwill behind the trademark to be valid.

Section 2(1)(b) of the Trade Marks Act, 1999 states that assignment means an assignment of a trademark in writing by the act of the concerned parties. Both unregistered and registered trademarks can be assigned with or without the goodwill of the business.

A Trademark Assignment Agreement is a written document that legally transfers a legally recognized word, phrase, symbol, and/or design (the Trademark) from the current owner (the Assignor) to the future owner (the Assignee).

What are the documents required for licensing a trademark assignment ? A valid identity proof of both parties, a copy of the assignment agreement and a filled form TM-P of Trademarks Act 1999 must be produced along with fee payment.

By law, a trademark owner may transfer or sell his or her property rights to another through a legal document referred to as an assignment. An assignment is generally a written agreement in which the two parties have negotiated and agreed to a price. To be valid, the assignment must be signed by both parties.

A trademark assignment is the transfer of an owner's property rights in a given mark or marks. Such transfers may occur on their own or as parts of larger asset sales or purchases. Trademark assignment agreements both provide records of ownership and transfer and protect the rights of all parties.

To put it summarily, in case of an assignment of a trademark, there is a change in the ownership of the registered brand and in case of licensing, the right in the trade mark continues to vest with the original owner but only few restricted rights to use the brand/mark are given to the third party.
