David: Thanks, Vova! It's great to be back.


How to Resolve Amazon Trademark Complaints


David: So, let's get right into it.


When you're an Amazon seller and you find yourself facing a trademark infringement notice, what do you do? 


Step number one is to take a closer look at the trademark registration itself.


Every notice you receive should come with a trademark registration number.


You want to head over to uspto.gov and search for that registration.


Vova: Right, that sounds like a solid starting point.


Now, let's say you're selling a product and you've got that notice.


The first thing you need to ask yourself is whether you're selling the exact branded product in question, right?


David: Exactly, Vova.


If you're selling the branded product, you're off to a good start.


But hold on, you'll want to inspect for any differences.


That could be differences in packaging or even the product itself.


And remember, it's not just about physical aspects – also check any non-physical differences, like warranties or satisfaction guarantees.


Your goal is to ensure that what you're offering matches up with the brand's offerings, or even surpasses them.


Vova: Makes sense!


But what if the product you're selling isn't that specific branded item?


What's the next move?


David: If you're not selling the exact product that received the trademark complaint, you might be in a bit of a pickle.


Here's where you should consider whether your product description matches what you're offering.


If what you're selling is described in a way that's really accurate, you could still be okay.


However, if your product's description doesn't quite match up, you might need to dig a bit deeper.


Vova: Got it.


David: So, if someone, for instance, describes their TV as "crystal clear," they better be offering a TV that's actually crystal clear, right?


They need to make sure it truly lives up to that description.


Vova: Perfect.


David: Now, let's say you're in a situation where you had no clue there was a brand named Crystal Clear that makes TVs.


You're just saying your TVs are crystal clear without any prior knowledge.


What happens then?


In such a scenario, you'd be fitting under what's known as a "descriptiveness argument."


Essentially, you're using a descriptive term to talk about your product.


However, there's another aspect to consider: the class of registration.


For instance, if Crystal Clear's trademark registration doesn't include TVs but instead covers something like apparel, you might have a strong counterargument.


You can claim that you're not infringing on their trademark since you're operating in a different product category.


Vova: That's really helpful, David.


So, just to recap, if your product description is based on a descriptive term like "crystal clear," and the existing trademark doesn't cover the same product category, you might have a solid defense.


David: Exactly, Vova. You're catching on fast!


Vova: Awesome!
