Providing a website via a global computer network featuring information in the fields of health, cancer treatment, cancer recovery and survival 044-2237

On 02-14-2013, this 12-17-2009 entry was modified by deleting "and comprehensive content" because "content," in this context, is overbroad and may include downloadable video recordings in Class 9 and on-line journals in Class 41, for example. On 01-01-2021, this 02-14-2013 entry "Providing a website via a global computer network featuring information in the fields of health, cancer, cancer recovery and survival" was modified by changing "cancer" to "cancer treatment" to clarify the subject matter in Class 44. Additionally, please note - U.S. applicants intending to seek Extension of Protection under the Madrid Protocol should note that the International Bureau (IB) is likely to issue a notice of irregularity requiring clarification of the nature of their services if introductory language such as "providing a website …" or "providing an on-line portal…," or similar wording, is used in the identification of services. To avoid issuance of a notice of irregularity, said applicants may wish to set forth the services in their identification by listing the principal activity first and then indicating that such services are "provided by means of a website" or "provided via a website." For purposes of illustration, instead of identifying the services as "providing a website featuring business information" in Class 35, an applicant may wish to identify such services as "providing business information via a website" in Class 35. See TMEP §1902.02(f)(ii).
