In the age of e-commerce and online sales, your website connects your products and services with customers. Registering your domain name protects your online investment and is a valuable asset within your intellectual property (IP) portfolio.
There are several factors to consider when registering and maintaining a domain name (website address) and these can easily be overlooked. These include: ensuring the domain name is available and not protected as a trade mark, the correct legal ownership, and keeping track of renewal dates.
What do we do?
Our services include:
- registration and renewal of domain names in the UK and worldwide;
- watching new domain names that conflict with your trade marks;
- taking action against third parties in domain name disputes;
- taking action against cybersquatting;
- taking down websites, web pages, social media and online marketplace listings; and
- recovering domain names.
It is increasingly common for brand owners to be faced with online infringement, misuse or abuse of trade marks or brands in AdWords or on social media, such as Instagram and Facebook. Policies are in place on many search engines and social media sites to protect trade marks.
We can help protect your IP rights and stop unauthorised use of your IP rights, by removing content, posts and social media accounts, taking action against the infringing party, or via social media platforms or website hosts.
Who do we help?
We offer domain name registration services to organisations of all sizes, including universities, charities, SMEs and multinationals.
