WORDTRAC
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/InvalidatedWhat this record means
The record shows that WORDTRAC is no longer active – it was cancelled on Oct 26 2002 because the registrant, Equitrac Corporation, did not file a required Section 8 declaration, so the registration is dead. The only goods listed are “computer software for monitoring, recording and reporting the use made of word processors” in International Class 009, meaning a similar name would raise the closest concern if you’re offering software that tracks word‑processor activity or other electronic‑document tools. The record does not give Equitrac control over every use of the word “WORDTRAC” in unrelated fields. There is no Supplemental Register entry, and the prosecution history simply moves from approval to registration and then to cancellation for the maintenance lapse. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations by third parties, or other enforcement actions. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if your product falls within that software niche, but the risk drops off for unrelated goods or services.
