TRADEMARK GUIDELINES
Healthcare Professional acknowledges and agrees that the above marks and related logos are trademarks of MPowrx.
-
Use Proper Trademark Notices. In advertising, brochures and other collateral materials, the first time or the most prominent time the trademark appears, it should have a ™ behind it (or the designation ® if the mark is registered in the applicable jurisdiction), and an asterisk that refers to the bottom of the page or brochure, where the following should appear in clear and easily readable type:
* “GOOD MORNING SNORE SOLUTION”, “GMSS”, MPOWRX” “I SLEEP SOUND” and related logos are trademarks of MPowrx.” {if and when the Trademarks are registered by MPowrx in the applicable country, the above should read: “are registered trademarks of MPowrx”.}
Use of the ® symbol when the mark is registered in the applicable country is important because it may determine the remedies the mark owner can recover when the mark is infringed. However, the ® symbol should not be used unless the mark is in fact registered in the applicable country. Use of the ® for an unregistered mark is generally forbidden by law and could bar MPowrx from obtaining registration of the mark. It could also impair MPowrx’s ability to sue infringers of the mark. Accordingly, you must be certain that the mark is registered in the applicable country before using the ® symbol. MPowrx will notify Healthcare Professional if any Trademark is registered in any country in the Territory.
-
Use as an Adjective. When using the trademarks in text, do not use the trademarks as a noun; always use them as an adjective followed by the generic name of the product. So, the correct usage in text would be: a MPowrx™ device or MPowrx™ product. If the trademark is used in text, it should stand out in the text. The generic designation behind it should be in lower case.
III. Other Rules.
- Be consistent in the use of the mark and conform to the specifications.
- Always spell the mark correctly if it is a word and reproduce it faithfully and accurately if it is a design or symbol. Avoid any variations. Do not add features or graphic elements.
- Watch for all incidents of improper usage of any MPowrx trademarks and report them to MPowrx.
MPowrx’s Brand Guidelines, as may be amended by MPowrx from time to time, are available to the Healthcare Professional.
