We know that both copyright and trademark have their own symbols. So, what are copyright symbols and trademark symbols? What is the difference between them? Let's introduce them one by one. The copyright symbol is on the left and the trademark symbol is on the right? Copyright is copyright, which refers to the rights (including property rights and personal rights) enjoyed by the authors of literary, artistic and scientific works. Copyright is a type of intellectual property. Trademark ? TM is the abbreviation of English trademark. TM on the trademark has its special meaning. In fact, TM does not protect the trademark. It is different from R. TM means that the trademark has been applied to the State Trademark Office, and the State Trademark Office has issued the Notice of Acceptance, which has entered the objection period. This can prevent others from filing repeated applications, and also means that existing trademark holders have the priority to use it. Using TM means trademark symbol, that is, the words, graphics or symbols marked with TM are trademarks, but they are not necessarily registered (unregistered ones are not protected by law). Registered Trademark ? The circle R is the mark of a registered trademark, which means that the trademark has been applied for registration in the State Trademark Office and has been examined and approved by the Trademark Office to become a registered trademark. R in the circle is the initial letter of English register registration. A registered trademark has the characteristics of exclusiveness, exclusiveness and uniqueness. It belongs to the owner of the registered trademark and is protected by law. No enterprise or individual may use it without the permission or authorization of the owner of the registered trademark, otherwise it will bear the tort liability.
