WIPO to Consider Trademark Protection Online

WIPO is set to consider the protection of trademarks online, including recommendations for a harmonised dispute resolution procedure between mark owners and Internet service providers. The topic sits on the agenda for the upcoming meeting of WIPO’s Standing Committee on the Laws of Trademarks, Industrial Designs and Geographical Indications (STC) on March 28 to April 1.

The GigaLaw Firm helps companies of all sizes protect their brands online, using domain name dispute policies – such as the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) – and other legal tools available to copyright and trademark owners on the Internet.
