1. Positive answer
Three ways of trademark licensing:
1. General use license of trademark. The general use license of a trademark is a relatively common licensing method and has less restrictions on the trademark owner;
2. Exclusive use license of the trademark. Exclusive use licensing means that the trademark owner cannot license a third party to use the trademark except for the exclusive licensee of the licensed trademark, but the trademark owner can still use its trademark;
3. Exclusive license to use the trademark. Exclusive use license means that after the trademark owner licenses the exclusive use to the licensee, only the licensee can use the trademark, and the trademark owner has no right to use it.
2. Detailed analysis
Trademark licensing rights refer to the right of the trademark owner to license others to use its registered trademark by signing a trademark licensing contract. The licensor shall supervise the quality of the goods used by the licensee using its registered trademark, and the licensee must indicate the name of the licensee and the origin of the goods on the goods using the registered trademark. The trademark license contract must be reported to the Trademark Office for filing. If the trademark license contract is not filed, the validity of the license contract will not be affected, unless otherwise agreed by the parties. If a trademark license contract is not filed with the Trademark Office, it may not be used against a bona fide third party.
3. What are the precautions for trademark licensing?
1. The trademark licensee must be a trademark applicant who meets the qualifications of the Trademark Law;
2. A trademark that can be used by others must be a registered trademark;
3. The difference between an exclusive trademark license and a general license. A trademark exclusive license is a type of trademark license. Also known as trademark exclusive use license, that is, after the trademark owner permits others to use its registered trademark in a specified region, it is not allowed to sublicense the same registered trademark to a third party in the same region.
