IBM includes support for this code page in the hardware of its model 5150, known as "IBM-PC", considered the first personal computer. In this way was added the ASCII characters ranging from 128 to 255. Also 128 characters were added, with new symbols, signs, graphics and latin letters, all punctuation signs and characters needed to write texts in other languages, such as Spanish. In 1981, IBM developed an extension of 8-bit ASCII code, called "code page 437", in this version were replaced some obsolete control characters for graphic characters. So with this set of only 128 characters was published in 1967 as standard, containing all you need to write in English language. This code arises from reorder and expand the set of symbols and characters already used in telegraphy at that time by the Bell company.Īt first only included capital letters and numbers, but in 1967 was added the lowercase letters and some control characters, forming what is known as US-ASCII, ie the characters 0 through 127. TM is for trademarks, © for your creations.The American Standard Code for Information Interchange, or ASCII code, was created in 1963 by the "American Standards Association" Committee or "ASA", the agency changed its name in 1969 by "American National Standards Institute" or "ANSI" as it is known since. Using C symbol is not obligatory to claim the copyright protection. If I don’t use the © symbol will I lose my copyright protection? Even a photo of your dog you took with your new iPhone X. How cool is that? You created anything and once it is created it’s your property for your entire life + 70 years - absolutely free. It was required several decades ago, but according to the new Copyright Rules the protection is granted automatically. You can use it along with your name and date in order to inform others of your ownership over a creation.ĭo I have to use the C symbol © to get copyright protection? That bad boy is used to inform of a copyright claim. This symbol is unregistrable, no one can get an exclusive right over the ® symbol. No, you should delete it from your logo when applying. That’s may be considered a false trademark claim.Ĭan the ® symbol be a part of my trademark when I apply for it? No, don’t do this! Trademarks are territorial, a registered mark in China does not grant you right to use the R symbol in the USA. My trademark is registered in China (or any country abroad), can I use the ® in the US? Also, you can put it at the end of your trademark. The top right corner of your trademark is a perfect place for it. Where should I place my hard-earned ® sign?

In 99% of countries, this symbol stands for word REGISTERED, when your trademark is 100% officially registered. But we do not recommend doing so as this might confuse customers. In some countries, however, its use is non-regulated and you can apply it even to unregistered trademarks (Canada is an example). Usually, using ® means that your trademark is registered in a country. That’s not as smart as it may look like though. Using ™ doesn’t normally qualify as a false trademark claim. You won’t get sued for this if that’s what you mean. But in other 180 countries, it will give you absolutely no protection. It will grant you common law rights in some countries.

However, it does not mean that the mark is officially protected and that you can sue anyone for misusing your trademark in this case. Good examples are the USA, UK, New Zealand, Australia, Canada and some other countries. In some countries, this will give you common law rights.
