SECURESTEPSerial 76263179 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Nationwide Life Insurance Company
Class 036 - Insurance & Financial
Filed May 29, 2001
Registered May 27, 2003
The record shows that “SECURESTEP” is a cancelled Principal Register service mark, with the cancellation dated January 2 2010 because the registrant failed to file a required Section 8 declaration; the owner listed is Nationwide Life Insurance Company, a corporation organized in Ohio. The registration covered financial services, specifically brokerage in the field of variable universal life, annuities and mutual funds (class 036). A similar name used for insurance‑related or investment‑brokerage services would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses outside that narrow financial scope fall farther from the listed coverage. The record does not give Nationwide control over every possible use of the word “SECURESTEP.” No Supplemental Register activity appears, and the prosecution history shows only routine filings and a correction in 2003 before the eventual cancellation. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties or other enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a name in the same financial‑services arena.
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.
