WP-Ensure is a registered trademark in both the European Union and the United Kingdom.
A few years ago we applied for and were granted a European Union trade mark (EUTM) for WP-Ensure and now we are also hold the trademark in the UK.
Originally we wanted a trademark to protect the name after someone purchased a similar domain to ours and copied our content (presumably for mischievous purposes). At the time there wasn’t much we could do because the name wasn’t protected.
Now of course with all WP-Engine and Matt Mullenweg drama, trademarks have become a central theme of their lawsuits. Presumably we are not big or rich enough to attract the ire of Mullenweg, but you never know, and it’s always good to protect yourself.
