The owner of a trademark loses its rights to a mark if it does not use the mark in a consistent and controlled manner.
Copyrights and trademarks are collectively known as intellectual property rights. A copyright protects an original artistic or literary work. A trademark protects and identifies the source of goods of one party from those of another, and, similarly, a service mark protects and identifies the source of a service, rather than a product.
