Trademark generally refers to the name of a company or product, while a logo uses a simple and interesting graphic to represent a company or product, or a logo for a product or company. A logo means a mark, not necessarily a product mark. It can also be an organizational mark, a badge, a personal mark, etc. In short, the scope of a logo is larger than that of a trademark. You can still make money by transferring idle trademarks. Legally speaking, logos and trademarks are very different. 1. The acquisition of rights is different. As a work of art, a logo does not need to be registered. It automatically obtains copyright upon completion of creation, while a trademark must be registered by the corresponding national agency to obtain trademark rights. 2. The designer and owner of different logos may not be the same person. Ordinary companies will entrust designers to design logos. As a commissioned work, there are two situations in which the copyright belongs to the logo. It is agreed that it belongs to the client. Or if there is no agreement, then it belongs to the designer, and the trademark belongs only to the trademark owner. This is the category of intellectual property rights. 3. Different laws of protection: logos are protected by the Copyright Law, and trademarks are protected by the Trademark Law. A logo can be registered as a trademark, and then the trademark logo is protected by both the Copyright Law and the Trademark Law. This means that the scope of protection of the logo and the trademark are different, and the scope of protection of the logo is not as wide as that of the trademark. If the infringement is infringed, the intensity of protection is also different. Of course, trademark protection is stronger than copyright. This will also raise another issue. If the copyright of the logo belongs to the designer, then if the logo is infringed, it will actually damage the interests of the logo owner, but only the designer has the right to sue. The trademark owner can directly sue for infringement in his own name. 4. The period of protection is different. As a work of art, a logo is generally protected for 50 years, while a trademark can be renewed indefinitely, and the period of protection is unlimited.
