I. General Provisions

These Terms of Service (hereinafter referred to as the “Terms”) govern the service relationship between www.ipuvchina.com (hereinafter referred to as “the Website”, “we”, “us”) and all users who access the Website, submit applications, complete payments and purchase intellectual property services (hereinafter referred to as “you”, “user”).

By browsing this Website, submitting service forms, completing payments and using our services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and fully agreed to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must immediately stop using this Website and related services.

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the People’s Republic of China.

II. Service Scope

We are a formally registered and compliant intellectual property service institution in China, providing professional agency services for individuals, enterprises and organizations worldwide, including but not limited to:

– Chinese trademark registration, renewal, assignment and change application;

– Chinese patent application (invention patent, utility model patent, design patent);

– Chinese copyright registration and related filing services;

– Official document submission, application follow-up and progress inquiry services.

All services are limited to formal application agency and document sorting, and do not include the official review process. Since China’s intellectual property authorities have independent review rights, their review standards, processes and results are independently determined by the authorities, which we cannot interfere with. Therefore, we do not guarantee that any intellectual property application will be 100% approved, authorized or registered successfully.

Regarding the service and review time limit, we provide the following reference estimates (for your planning reference only, not constituting a commitment): the overall time limit for trademark registration is about 9-12 months; for patent applications (invention patents take about 18-24 months, utility model patents take about 6-8 months, design patents take about 3-6 months); copyright registration takes about 1-3 months; the time limit for search services is about 1-3 working days. All the above time limits are estimates based on past agency experience, and the specific time limit shall be subject to the actual review progress and notification of China’s intellectual property authorities.

If we provide you with trademark, patent and other search services, the search results are only analyzed and judged based on past agency experience and publicly available intellectual property information, do not represent official review conclusions, and do not guarantee 100% accuracy of the search results; regardless of the search results, after submitting the registration application, the application may still fail, be rejected or opposed due to uncontrollable factors such as adjustments to official review standards, existence of prior rights, and defects in application materials, and we shall not bear any relevant liability arising therefrom.
