The Problem: E-Commerce IP Infringement
Millions of Trademarks
With more than 1.5M live trademark registrations in the U.S. alone, global e-commerce is paved with trademark rights.
Account Strikes
Rights-holders can coerce platforms to sanction accounts by merely reporting IP violations, leading to suspension and loss of funds.
Civil and Criminal Penalties
Not only can rights-holders obtain injunctive relief, they may obtain statutory damages, costs, and attorneys fees. Criminal counterfeiting is a felony charge in the U.S.
