Is the trademark around the gift printing trademark infringing?
It depends on the specific situation. If the trademark used is not registered or recognized by the trademark holder, it does not constitute infringement. On the contrary, it constitutes infringement. Judging from the current case, giveaway is a promotion strategy of commodities, aiming at realizing commercial profits through special management means. This giveaway behavior is actually a special sales behavior. Therefore, the gift of goods that infringe the exclusive right to use a registered trademark belongs to trademark infringement, and the donor should bear the responsibility to stop the infringement; If he knows or should know that the donated goods are goods that infringe the exclusive right to use a registered trademark, he shall also be liable for damages.
