First, the English translation of a trademark is a trademark, which can be words and graphics, or words and graphics, and is a symbol used to distinguish the source of goods. When graphic symbols are used, we can also call them logo. If it happens that the logo is original, it will be protected by copyright from the date when the logo design is completed, but the logo at this time cannot be called a "registered trademark".

Second, if you apply for trademark registration with this logo pattern, it belongs to the graphic trademark in the trademark type, obviously because of the use of graphic design elements. Logo graphics are "registered trademarks" only after applying for trademark registration, and the trademark symbol circle R can be marked on the logo. The original logo can not only be used to apply for trademark registration, but also has original copyright and is protected by copyright.

Third, however, when the ownership of copyright and trademark right is inconsistent, it is easy to conflict and lead to a certain right being invalid. Generally speaking, the company will invite external full-time designers to design the logo of the trademark. Xiaoqi suggested signing an agreement on the copyright ownership of original logo works, so that the company can become the copyright owner. Applying for the trademark of the copyrighted logo can avoid a lot of trouble. At the same time, the logo can be registered for copyright, which will be protected by trademark law and copyright law, creating a solid protection barrier for the company's brand.
