Owner: Meta Platforms, Inc.
Class 038 - Communication Services
Class 045 - Legal & Personal Services
Filed Dec 17, 2009
Registered Feb 21, 2012
The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by Meta Platforms, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The registration covers services in class 038—providing access to computer databases for social networking, social introduction, and dating—and class 045—social introduction, networking, and dating services, plus social services and information in personal development, self‑improvement, charitable, philanthropic, volunteer, public and community services, and humanitarian activities. A similar name would raise the closest concern in these areas of social networking and related personal services. The record does not give Meta control over every use of the word “Facebook” in unrelated contexts. No prosecution history or enforcement actions appear, so the supplied history shows no visible enforcement activity. The most recent status event is the renewal on February 25, 2023. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is that use in social networking or related personal services could be viewed as infringing.
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.
