Industrial Designs Database Notices

November 29, 2007 — Important notice to users

Please read the disclaimer before you start a search. CIPO has made every effort to ensure that the data contained in this database is accurate and up to date; however, there are some issues that affect a small number of registrations — they have been identified and will be corrected during the coming months. We thank you for your patience and we will keep you informed as issues are resolved. If you have any concerns or questions, please contact us. Until then, users should consider the following when searching the database:

Assignments and other "interested parties" information

  • The last assignee information might not correspond to the current owner information displayed on the details page of a registration.
  • The details page of a registration might show change of ownership when it does not apply.

Missing Classifications: A small number of designs are missing their classifications.

Missing Thumbnails: Drawings are not available for some registrations.
