Trademark Registration
A Trademark is basically a unique mark that is used by an individual, a business organization or a legal firm that establishes its entity and distinguishes it uniquely from others. It is acquired through a legal registration process and is a part of Intellectual Property Rights and is important tool of identification for prospective customers. It can be in various forms like :
- Words : Band – Aid, Vaseline, Aspirin, Dolby
- Names : Dacron, Dumpster, Formica, Frisbee, Ping-Pong, Post-it, Styrofoam, Teflon
- Logos and devices : Symbols for McDonalds, Nike, Apple, WWF, Google
- Combination of colors, shapes
Many words, which were originally registered as Trademarks, have now become an essential part of our vocabulary because of their immense popularity. This signifies how a Trademark can get diluted over time. In addition, a Trademark is also limited to National boundaries which constrict its use. Trademark Registration can be done in conventional & non-conventional forms and gives an entity the right to initiate legal proceedings against any person/firm for infringement and unauthorized use.
