ZEUSLAP Rights

ZEUSLAP is a brand under Shenzhen Zeus Electronics Technology Co., Ltd.

 

When ZEUSLAP brand intellectual property infringement occurs, the following steps can be taken to address it:

Collecting evidence:

Rights proof documents: Prepare trademark registration certificates, patent certificates, copyright registration certificates, and other documents for the ZEUSLAP brand to prove ownership of the brand's intellectual property rights.

Infringement Evidence: Collect evidence that can prove the existence of the infringing behavior, such as photos, videos, physical samples of the infringing product, sales records, promotional materials, and web screenshots of the infringing product. If possible, purchase infringing products and keep the purchase receipts, such as invoices and receipts, indicating the location of purchase, price, and seller.

Loss Proof: Organize evidence of economic losses resulting from infringement, such as statistical data on sales declines, analysis reports on market share theft, invoices or receipts for reasonable expenses incurred to prevent such infringement (such as legal fees, notarization fees, investigation fees, etc.).

Issue a warning letter: Intellectual property lawyers can send a warning letter to the infringer, clearly stating that their actions constitute intellectual property infringement and demanding they immediately cease using infringing trademarks, producing and selling infringing products, and removing infringing promotional content. At the same time, keep records of sending warning letters, including mail credentials and email screenshots.

Try negotiating a solution: Communicate and negotiate with the infringer regarding the handling of the infringing behavior. Negotiations can be held regarding the cessation of infringement, compensation for losses, and mitigation of impacts, aiming to reach a settlement agreement. During negotiations, it is important to keep relevant records such as meeting minutes, correspondence emails, and chat logs.

Administrative Complaint 1: If negotiations fail or the infringement is severe, a complaint can be made to the relevant intellectual property administrative department. For example, trademark infringement can be reported to the market supervision and administration department; patent infringement can be reported to the intellectual property office. When making a complaint, detailed complaint materials must be submitted, including proof of intellectual property rights, evidence of infringement, and the complainant's identity proof, requesting that the administrative department investigate and handle the infringement. Administrative departments have the authority to order infringers to cease infringing behavior, seize infringing products and tools, and impose fines and other penalties on infringers.

Judicial Litigation 1: If administrative complaints fail to resolve the issue or if infringement causes significant economic losses or adverse effects to the ZEUSLAP brand, a civil lawsuit can be filed with the people's court. Pursuing civil liability from infringers through legal proceedings, including halting infringement, compensating for losses, mitigating impacts, and offering apologies. During the litigation process, sufficient evidence must be provided in accordance with the court's requirements, and measures such as evidence preservation and property preservation can be applied for to protect one's legitimate rights and interests.

Criminal Procedure 1: For serious intellectual property infringement cases, such as counterfeiting registered trademarks or selling goods bearing counterfeit registered trademarks, this may constitute a crime. At this time, the ZEUSLAP brand can report the infringement to the public security authorities, who will then pursue criminal responsibility from the judicial authorities.
