SECUREKEY

What this record means

The record shows that “SECUREKEY” is an abandoned application, not a live or registered mark, and the listed owner is Synaptics, Inc., a corporation organized in California. The only goods covered are “key or lock for use with a touchpad for locking and unlocking computers and other electronic machines” in International Class 009, so a similar name would raise the closest concern if you are offering any kind of hardware lock or security device that works with touchpads or computers. The record does not give Synaptics control over every use of the word “securekey” in unrelated fields, and because the application was filed on Aug 11 1997 and abandoned on Jan 23 1999 after a failure to respond to a non‑final office action, there are no later maintenance or renewal dates to note. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement activity is visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if your product falls within the same hardware‑security niche, but the risk drops sharply for unrelated goods or services.
