`REMARKS
`
`The Examining Attorney has refused registration of the mark IBM PUREDATA in International Classes 9, 37 and 42, under Trademark Act
`
`Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. Section 1052(d), stating that the mark is likely to cause confusion with Registration Nos. 3311693, 3324228, 3339601
`
`and 3404660.(cid:160)(cid:160) For the reasons set forth below, Applicant respectfully disagrees with the Examining Attorney that there is a likelihood of
`
`
`
`confusion between Applicant’s mark and the cited registrations.
`
`Likelihood of Confusion
`
`Applicant notes that when an application is alleged by an Examining Attorney to conflict with a registered mark, the applicant with the later-
`
`filed application may attempt to persuade the Examining Attorney that its mark is not confusingly similar to the registered mark.(cid:160) Trademark
`
`Manual of Examining Procedure, Section 1207.01 (Second Edition, May 1993).(cid:160) The standard used in determining whether two marks are
`
`likely to be confused is set forth in In re E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., 476 F.2d 1357, 177 U.S.P.Q. 563 (C.C.P.A. 1973).(cid:160) DuPont sets
`
`fourth a number of factors to be considered in determining whether two marks are likely to be confused under Trademark Act Section 2(d), 15
`
`U.S.C. Section 1052(d).(cid:160) Each factor may play a more dominant or diminished role, depending on the facts of each case.(cid:160) DuPont, 476 F.2d at
`
`1361-1362, 177 U.S.P.Q. at 567.
`
`The Marks are Used for Different Goods and Services
`
`A likelihood of confusion analysis must take into account the similarity or dissimilarity between the goods or services described in the
`
`application or registration.(cid:160) DuPont, 177 U.S.P.Q. at 564.(cid:160) Applicant’s Goods and Services, as amended, are “Computer hardware and
`
`software appliances; computer hardware and computer software for use in data analytics, namely, computer hardware and computer software
`
`for providing an analytics platform for storing, managing and analyzing massive volumes of data; computer hardware, namely, computers,
`
`computer servers and computer storage apparatus, namely, high-speed storage subsystems for storage and backup of electronic data either
`
`locally or via a telecommunications network; ; computer programs for connecting networks and computer systems, computer servers and
`
`apparatus for storage of different kinds; operating system software; computer programs for connecting computers to each other and for
`
`allowing computer activities across a global computer network; computer programs for the management of systems, software and processes in
`
`an information technology environment; computer hardware and computer programs or software, namely a set or family of computer systems,
`
`namely pre-integrated and optimized computer processors, storage servers, network equipment and computer peripherals, computer programs
`
`or software for data management; computer hardware and computer programs or software, namely computer infrastructure systems, computer
`
`architecture platform systems and computer network business activity systems and software for providing integrated expertise, integration and
`
`adjustment for a given workload and delivering a streamlined user experience; downloadable instruction manuals sold with the goods in this
`
`class in Class 9.(cid:160) Registrant’s services, are “Custom design and development of computer hardware and software,” (cid:160) “Consulting services in
`
`the field of engineering, design, selection, implementation and use of computer hardware and software systems for others,” and
`
`“Consultation services in the fields of selection, implementation and use of computer hardware and software systems for others; design,
`
`development and implementation of software” – all in Class 42. (cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`Applicant’s Class 9 goods are specifically computer hardware and software for performing data analysis on large quantities of
`
`information.(cid:160) Registrant’s Class 42 services are specifically for providing the service of designing and implementing hardware and software
`
`systems.(cid:160) Registrant is not offering actual hardware and software; they are merely designing and implementing information technology
`
`systems for others.(cid:160) There is no per se rule that confusion will always be found between any and all items of computer products and services.(cid:160)
`
`2 J.(cid:160) Thomas McCarthy, Trademarks and Unfair Competition, Section 24:44.(cid:160) See, In re Quadrum Cor., 228 U.S.P.Q. 863 (T.T.A.B. 1985) (No
`
`likelihood of confusion found between FASER for software for energy conservation and MICROFAZER for hardware buffers); and
`
`Information Resources v. X*Press Info. Servs., 6 U.S.P.Q.2d 1034 (T.T.A.B. 1988) (X*PRESS for a news service transmitted through cable
`
`television to a personal computer was found not likely to cause confusion with EXPRESS for highly specialized information analysis
`
`computer programs).(cid:160) Thus, the Trademark Board and the Federal Circuit “have rejected the view that a relationship exists between goods and
`
`
`
`services simply because each involves the use of computers.” (cid:160) Electronic Data Systems Corp. V. EDSA Micro Corp., 23 U.S.P.Q.2d 1460
`
`(T.T.A.B. 1992) (there is no conflict between EDS for general data processing services and EDSA for computer assisted design for electrical
`
`power systems).(cid:160) See also, Aries Sys. Corp. v. World Book, Inc., 26 U.S.P.Q.2d 1926 (T.T.A.B. 1993) (no conflict between INFORMATION
`
`FINDER if restricted to computer programs containing general encyclopedic information sold primarily to elementary and secondary schools
`
`and KNOWLEDGE FINDER if restricted to computer programs for retrieval in specialized medical databases and sold primarily to medical
`
`professionals). (cid:160) In the instant case, Applicant’s goods and Registrant’s services are for different uses and serve entirely different functions
`
`that do not encompass or overlap one another.(cid:160) Applicant’s computer hardware and software are for managing and performing analysis of
`
`tremendous amounts of data, whereas Registrant’s services are setting up computer systems for others.
`
`Channels of Trade are Distinct
`
`Applicant’s goods do not travel in the same channels of trade as Registrant’s services.
`
`(cid:160) While Applicant’s and Registrant’s goods
`
`and services both relate to the computer industry, Applicant’s computer hardware and software is marketed to large scale companies who
`
`require Applicant’s technology in order to analyze massive volumes of data. (cid:160) To the contrary, Registrant’s services appear to be offered to
`
`those seeking set up of computer hardware and software systems.(cid:160) As the products and services are offered for entirely different purposes,
`
`confusion is unlikely to occur.
`
`Sophisticated Consumers
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`It is well established that the sophistication of purchasers is a critical factor in determining likelihood of confusion.(cid:160) See, DuPont, 476
`
`F.2d at 1361, 177 U.S.P.Q. at 567.(cid:160) Indeed, purchaser sophistication is often dispositive on the question of likelihood of confusion, to the
`
`extent that sophisticated consumers exercise greater care and there is less likelihood of confusion where goods are purchased after careful
`
`consideration.(cid:160) Further, the sophistication of consumers can make confusion unlikely even where goods and services are related and the marks
`
`have a high degree of similarity.(cid:160) Id.
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`The goods and services identified in connection with Applicant’s mark are not the type to be subject to “impulse” purchases.
`
`(cid:160) Rather,
`
`careful consideration must be given to ensure that the goods being purchased are ones that will satisfy the very technical needs of the large
`
`business consumer.(cid:160) Applicant's goods are likely to be purchased by large scale businesses that have a high level of sophistication and
`
`understanding of such products in order to enable them to meet their specific business technology needs.
`
`A Family of “Pure” Marks
`
`A family of marks is “a group of marks having a recognizable common characteristic, wherein the marks are composed and used in such a
`
`way that the public associates not only the individual marks, but the common characteristic of the family, with the trademark owner.” J & J
`
`Snack Foods Corp. v. McDonald’s Corp. , 932 F.2d 1460, 1462, 18 USPQ2d 1889, 1891 (Fed. Cir. 1991).(cid:160) TMEP 1207.01(d)(xi) states that
`
`“[t]he common element may be a term, a phrase, or a component in the nature of a prefix or suffix.” (cid:160) In the instant case, Applicant is the
`
`owner of several PURE formative registrations (See attached Exhibit A), including:

`
`Applicant also has pending applications for the marks PUREEXPERIENCE, PUREFLEX, PUREAPPLICATION and PURESYSTEMS. As
`
`consumers are very familiar with Applicant’s numerous “PURE” marks, confusion by the consumer as to the source of origin of Applicant’s
`
`IBM PUREDATA goods is much less likely.(cid:160) Consumers will expect IBM PUREDATA hardware and software, such as the Class 9 goods
`
`listed in the table above, to emanate from Applicant.
`
`The Marks Differ in Appearance, Sound, Connotation and Commercial Impression
`
`A likelihood of confusion analysis must also take into account the similarity or dissimilarity of the marks in their entireties as to
`
`appearance, sound, connotation and commercial impression.(cid:160) Trademark Manual of Examining Procedure, Section 1207.01 (Second Edition,
`
`May 1993).(cid:160) See DuPont, 476 F.2d at 1361, 177 U.S.P.Q. at 567.(cid:160)
`
`There are significant visual and auditory differences that serve to differentiate Applicant’s mark from three of the cited registrations. (cid:160)
`
`First, Applicant’s mark begins with the prominent, well known and recognizable mark IBM, which is not found in Registrant’s mark.
`
`Consumers tend to focus on the first word, prefix or syllable of a mark.(cid:160) See Palm Bay Imps., Inc. v. Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin Maison Fondee
`
`En 1772, 396 F. 3d 1369, 1372, 73 USPQ2d 1689, 1692 (Fed. Cir. 2005); see also Mattel Inc. v. Funline Merch. Co., 81 USPQ2d 1372,
`
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`
`
`1374-75 (TTAB 2006); Presto Prods., Inc. v. Nice-Pak Prods., Inc., 9 USPQ2d 1895, 1897 (TTAB 1988) (“it is often the first part of a mark
`
`which is most likely to be impressed upon the mind of a purchaser and remembered”). (cid:160) Additionally, one of the cited registrations is for the
`
`mark PUREDATA with a significant design element.(cid:160) The design element consists of a box of shaded rectangles with the words PUREDATA
`
`appearing within the box in a stylized form.(cid:160) Applicant’s mark contains no such design element. (cid:160) The design element in the cited registration
`
`serves to visually distinguish the mark from Applicant’s.
`
`Two of the cited registrations are for the mark PUREDATA TECHNOLOGY...PURE AND SIMPLE.(cid:160) The marks are stylized with
`
`significant font, shading and positioning of words that is not present at all in Applicant’s mark. (cid:160) Also, there are the additional four words
`
`“TECHNOLOGY… PURE AND SIMPLE” that appear in the cited registrations that do not appear in Applicant’s mark and the additional
`
`significant and well known mark IBM that appears within Applicant’s mark that does not appear in Registrant’s marks.
`
`(cid:160) The terms “IBM,”
`
`“TECHNOLOGY,” “PURE,”
`
`(cid:160) and “SIMPLE,” should not be discounted by the Examining Attorney or dissected out of the cited marks. (cid:160)
`
`The use of these different significant and prominent words within the marks creates a significant different visual impression between the
`
`marks. The marks here are even more distinguishable than other marks which have been found to have no confusing similarity, such as WIZZ
`
`and GEE WHIZ, J. Wiss & Sons Co. V. Gee Whiz Tool Corp., 364 F.2d 910, 150 U.S.P.Q. 583 (6th Cir. 1966).
`
`Further, the marks have a very dissimilar sound.(cid:160) The marks are clearly distinguished by the different phonetic attributes created by the
`
`(cid:160) words IBM and TECHNOLOGY… PURE AND SIMPLE.(cid:160) The marks here can be considered even more distinguishable than other marks
`
`which have been found to have no confusing phonetic similarity, such as COCA COLA and POLAR COLA, Coca-Cola Co. v. Snow Crest
`
`Beverages, Inc., 162 F.2d 280, 73 U.S.P.Q. 518 (1st Cir. 1947), cert. denied, 332 U.S. 809, 92 L.Ed. 386, 68 S.Ct. 110, 75 U.S.P.Q. 365
`
`(1947).(cid:160)
`
`Additionally, because Applicant’s and Registrant’s marks incorporate different words, they are likely to create a different overall
`
`impression on consumers.(cid:160) The phrase TECHNOLOGY… PURE AND SIMPLE when used in the context of the cited mark PUREDATA
`
`TECHNOLOGY… PURE AND SIMPLE, would imply that Registrant’s computer systems integration services “simplify” set up of computer
`
`systems for consumers.(cid:160) Applicant’s mark IBM PUREDATA provides no such connotation. (cid:160)
`
`The marks, therefore, are significantly different in appearance, sound, connotation and commercial impression and confusion is
`
`extremely unlikely.(cid:160) The marks should not be dissected with only selected component parts compared.(cid:160) (“The commercial impression of a
`
`trade-mark is derived from it as a whole, not from its elements separated and considered in detail.”); M2 Software, Inc., a Delaware
`
`corporation v. Madacy Entertainment, a corporation, 421 F.3d 1073, 1082 (9th Cir. 2005) (in likelihood of confusion analysis, mark is to be
`
`judged not by an examination of its parts but by viewing the trademark as a whole, as it appears in the marketplace); Official Airline Guides,
`
`Inc. v. Goss, 6 F.3d 1385, 1392 (9th Cir. 1993) (“under the anti-dissection rule, the validity and distinctiveness of a composite trademark is
`
`determined by viewing the trademark as a whole, as it appears in the marketplace.”); Little Caesar Enterprises, Inc. v. Pizza Caesar, Inc., 834
`
`F.2d 568, 571 (6th Cir. 1987).(cid:160) The Examining Attorney must consider the marks in their entireties - meaning, the Examining Attorney must
`
`consider the inclusion of the dominant well known term IBM in Applicant’s mark, the inclusion of the words “TECHNOLOGY…PURE
`
`AND SIMPLE” in Registrant’s marks, and the (cid:160) stylized fonts and design elements appearing in Registrant’s marks, all in relation to the
`
`respective goods and services of the marks, when determining the overall distinct impressions created by the marks.

`
`In testing for likelihood of confusion under Section 2(d), the Examining Attorney must also consider the number and nature of similar
`
`marks in use on similar goods.(cid:160) Trademark Manual of Examining Procedure, Section 1207.01 (Second Edition, May 1993).(cid:160) A search of the
`
`PTO database conducted on August 20, 2013 reveals that there are 112 live PURE formative registrations that currently coexist on the
`
`Principal Register in connection with “computer” goods and/or services. (cid:160) (See Exhibit A attached).(cid:160) Some of these marks are as follows (See

`
`Conclusion
`
`A likelihood of confusion is based on the cumulative effect of the differences in the goods/services and the differences in the marks.(cid:160)
`
`See Federated Foods, Inc. v. Fort Howard Paper Co., 544 F.2d 1098, 1103, 192 U.S.P.Q. 24, 29 (C.C.P.A. 1976).(cid:160) When the differences
`
`between the Applicant’s and Registrant’s marks are considered cumulatively, consumers will not expect the services offered by Applicant
`
`and the cited Registrant to emanate from the same source.(cid:160)
`
`In view of the amendments and remarks set forth herein, Applicant believes that the Office Action has been fully responded to and
`
`believes the application is in condition for registration.(cid:160) It is respectfully requested that the Examining Attorney reconsider the refusal to
`
`register and pass this application to registration in the Principal Register.
