What this means
The live marks span classes 9, 35, 38, 42, 45. A live mark in class 9 is not the same problem as one in class 45 — the risk depends on which class you sell in. The same word can often coexist in an unrelated class, but not in the same or a coordinated one.
Classes with a live mark: Class 9 (Software / electronics / downloadable media) · Class 35 (Advertising / retail / business services) · Class 38 (Telecom / streaming / broadcasting) · Class 42 (Software / tech services (SaaS, design, hosting)) · Class 45 (Legal / security / personal services)
