The owner of a Trademark may be an individual person or any legal business entity. A Trademark may be licensed to another person or business entity. The owner of a Trademark may pursue legal action against any person or business which infringes on their Trademark

Legal rights to a Trademark may be established through actual use in the marketplace, or through registration of the mark with the TrademarksTrademark with the Secretary of State. Exactly how a Trademark is treated legally varies from jurisdiction to local jurisdiction.

A Trademark which will be used in interstate or foreign commerce may be registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
