I run a a public forum and have received a Trademark infringement notification because another product/trademark has been discussed on our forum.
The infringement demands that I not only delete the posts in question, but also that I undertake in writing never to use their trademark again.
Are any of these requests valid?
Also, some of the posts on the forum were made during a time when the company in question was advertising on our site. Don't know if that makes a difference.
The claimed trademarks (4 different) does not come op when I search for them on uspoto.gov
Are there other places they could be listed?
