What this record means
The record shows that the mark “INSTAGRAM” is no longer live; it was cancelled on February 23 2024 because the registrant, Instagram, LLC, failed to file a required Section 8 declaration. The mark had been registered on August 8 2017 for class 018, covering umbrellas, with first use in October 2014. Because the cancellation was due to a maintenance failure, the mark no longer confers any rights, but the history indicates that the owner once claimed protection for that specific product. A similar name used for umbrellas or related goods would have been the closest concern, while use in unrelated categories would be farther from the scope shown. The record contains no oppositions, extensions, or court actions, so there is no visible enforcement activity. For anyone thinking of using a similar name for umbrellas, the past registration suggests a potential risk, but the cancellation means the owner no longer holds enforceable rights.
