The record shows that “VIVENDI UNIVERSAL” is a cancelled Principal Register mark – the registrant surrendered the registration and it was cancelled under Section 7 on Oct 29 2007, and the owner is listed as VIVENDI UNIVERSAL, a corporation organized in France. The registration covered a very broad set of goods and services, including electronic and scientific apparatus such as cameras, computers and software (Class 009); printed publications and books (Class 016); games, toys and puzzles (Class 028); non‑alcoholic and alcoholic beverages (Classes 032 and 033); advertising, business and market‑research services (Class 035); financial, insurance and real‑estate services (Class 036); installation and repair of information‑processing equipment (Class 037); telecommunications and database services (Class 038); education, entertainment and online media (Class 041); and scientific‑technology services like software development and web‑hosting (Class 042). Because the mark is cancelled, the record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “Vivendi Universal,” but a similar name used in any of those listed categories would raise the closest record‑based concern. The prosecution history shows the mark progressed to registration on Aug 1 2006 and then was surrendered in 2007; no opposition, cancellation proceeding or other enforcement activity appears in the supplied history. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to use a comparable name in any of the listed classes.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
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.
