MedicareWire uses brand names and logos for editorial purposes only, as permitted and governed by U.S. Trademark Fair Use Law. Specifically, nominative fair use permits MedicareWire to reference a mark to identify the actual goods and services that the trademark holder identifies with the mark. The nominative use doctrine, as enunciated by the United States Ninth Circuit (see New Kids on the Block v. News America Publishing, Inc., 971 F.2d 302, 306), protects our legal right to editorialize about brands and products, including the written use of an established mark to describe a product. We further understand that the fair use of a trademark may be protected under copyright laws depending on the complexity or creativity of the mark as a design logo. We base our appropriate use of marks using the three-part test for nominative fair use established by the United States Ninth Circuit. We pay particular attention to removing confusion through prominent disclosure (see Architectural Mailboxes, LLC v. Epoch Design, LLC, 99 U.S.P.Q. 2d 1799).
