WORDMINER - official mark drawing from the USPTO record

What this record means

The record shows that WORDMINER was a Principal Register service mark owned by Nortec, Inc., a Delaware corporation, but its registration was cancelled on July 8 2006 because the owner failed to file an acceptable Section 8 declaration, so the mark is no longer live. The only goods listed are “data conversion services, namely, data capture, electronic scanning and manipulation of data to organize and highlight words and topics to order and specifications of others” in International Class 040, meaning a similar name would raise the closest concern for services that process or organize textual data. The record does not give Nortec control over every use of the word “WORDMINER” in unrelated fields. The prosecution history shows the mark was approved, published, and registered in 1999, then cancelled for non‑filing of the required maintenance. No oppositions, cancellations by a third party, or court actions appear, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a data‑processing service with a comparable name.
