Too Afraid to Ask

A trademark is a special name or logo that a company uses to show that something belongs to them. It helps people know who made a product and keeps others from using the same name.

Technical Definition

A trademark is a legally registered symbol, word, or phrase that represents a company or product. It protects the brand identity and prevents others from using similar marks that could confuse consumers.
