Intellectual property protection solution

A trademark is one of the essential elements of a company’s intangible assets. It is the distinctive sign that allows it to promote its products and services but also to distinguish itself from its competitors. This is why it is essential to protect it effectively by registering an online application.

Definition of a registrable trademark

Not all signs can be registered as trademarks. To be registered, a trademark must be:

  • Distinctive: the trademark should not be a generic word or expression used to describe your product or service.
  • Available: the trademark must not reproduce or imitate a sign that benefits from rights previously registered. Before any trademark application is filed, a search for prior applications should be carried out.

The trademark should be different from the domain name which is the name given to a website. Unlike a trademark, it is not an industrial property right. However, it has obvious commercial and strategic value. That is why it is necessary to protect it.

In France, the filing application confers a monopoly on exploitation in French territory for 10 years, renewable indefinitely. This means that only the owner can use it and can sue any infringer.
