GMAIL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “GMAIL” is live and registered on the Principal Register, owned by GOOGLE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The registration covers communications services, specifically the transferring of electronic messages for groups of two or more people by means of a global computer network, first used in commerce on January 20, 1998. A similar name used for comparable electronic messaging services would raise the closest record‑based concern, while use in unrelated goods or services would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give control over every use of the word “GMAIL.” The prosecution history indicates the mark was examined and accepted without a descriptiveness refusal, and the mark was renewed on June 20, 2016, with the most recent maintenance event being the receipt of Section 8 and 9 renewal notices in 2026. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the presence of this active, well‑defined registration suggests a meaningful risk of conflict in the same communications‑services field.
