Tellusant Professional Services Description
Tellusant PoluSim Service Description
We have a number of Confidential Trade Secrets protected by law globally and in perpetuity. This is in contrast to patents where the patent holder divulges the IP and protection is time limited.
Our Confidential Trade Secrets are sometimes licensed to clients. The trade secrets protection ensures that those clients cannot use our related IP for their own purposes. There are also other reasons to have trade secrets such as remedies for theft, breach of duty to maintain secrecy, and espionage.
For more on trade secrets, see USPTO and WIPO. The WIPO site also shows the countries covered.
There is no symbol for trade secrets because it is a management practice, not a filing. Part of this management practice is to clearly mark trade secrets, which we do here (and in other places) as CONFIDENTIAL, PROPRIETARY, TRADE SECRET, or similar. We mostly use ⎼ᴛʀᴀᴅᴇ ꜱᴇᴄʀᴇᴛ⎼.
We use the word method when the trade secret refers to how our solution works, and apparatus when we refer to what the trade secret is.
According to USPTO:
A trade secret is information that:
1 Has actual or potential independent economic value because it is generally unknown to others
2 Is valuable to others who can’t legitimately obtain the information, and
3 Is maintained as secret through reasonable efforts taken by the trade secret owner.
Examples include Coca-Cola and New York Times Bestseller List.
