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

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.

Because copyright focuses on original works of authorship, the selection and arrangement must have some degree of originality. Simple grids or commonplace layouts are not considered original. Copyright for the compilation will be separate from copyrights for the content.

You cannot trademark a shape by itself. However you can trademark a logo that incorporates a unique shape, like Nike's famous "swoosh." This prevents others from using your shape on commercial products without your permission. To qualify for a trademark, your design must be original.

West Virginia University Trademark Licensing protects the reputation and goodwill of West Virginia University through the control of the appearance of its name and indicia in the marketplace and elsewhere.

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.

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.

No, you cannot trademark clothing design. Since clothing designs are the blueprints for physical goods, you can't trademark them.

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).

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.

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.
