DUN & BRADSTREETSerial 74401631 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: DUN & BRADSTREET CORPORATION, THE
Class 041 - Education & Entertainment
Filed Jun 14, 1993
Registered Sep 13, 1994
The record shows that the mark “DUN & BRADSTREET” is no longer active; it was cancelled on June 18 2005 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The owner listed is DUN & BRADSTREET CORPORATION, THE, a Delaware corporation. The mark covered educational services in employee development, financial management, personal computers, customer service, and time management under class 041. A similar name used for those or closely related educational services would raise the closest record‑based concern. The cancellation means the mark no longer grants exclusive rights, but the history does not prove that the wording is free for all uses. The prosecution history shows the mark was initially registered on the Principal Register in 1994, then cancelled in 2005. No opposition, cancellation, or court actions appear in the supplied record, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces risk, but the specific educational services listed still represent the most relevant area of concern.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
