CALL US TODAY TO HEAR MORE ABOUT THE BENEFITS OF OUTSOURCING YOUR DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS TO ASCIO.
Companies consist of resources such as people, buildings, machinery and technology. Your brands tie all this together and make it easy for customers and partners to relate to you. But since brands are publically available, they can fall victim for misuse. It happens. Most importantly, what can you do to prevent it?
Let us help you
Companies worldwide fall victim of third parties registering domain names containing part of their brand name to drive traffic to other web-sites. We can help you monitor your brand names effectively with our unique AscioWatch services. With AscioWatch you are able to view information on your trademark, domain name, internet, TM/Web sta-tus and records all in one interface. You can easily make searches and find records by mark, owner, class, filing date and country.
Protect yourself in numerous ways
We offer different services to protect your brands online. Our broad-range services are capable of fulfilling your needs as an international corpora-tion. We are specialized in flexible solutions for larger corporations managing worldwide domain name portfolios.
Global protection
Despite significant progress in apply-ing trademark principles to domain names rights, cybersquatting has still managed to increase over the past few years.
Investigating brand abuse is like finding a needle in a haystack. It is not something you can just do. It takes in-depth knowledge from professionals along with the right technology.
People, knowledge and software
We have the people, the knowledge and the software to monitor brand abuse across 250 top and second-level domains. We can help you fight brand infringement by monitoring the Internet globally and find out what variations of your brand names have been registered and by whom. If brand infringement is not filtered and dealt with, your online brand rights could suffer serious damage, which could lead to lost business and a damaged reputation.
