Using Our Site.
We provide this site for information: to tell you who we are and
what we do. Nothing in this site should be relied on as legal
advice. Every situation is different, so facts are important. When
you read and use our information, we do not have your facts. Therefore,
what we say here cannot be relied on as legal advice for you or
anyone else.
Also, we may have a link or two to someone else's site. We do not
give you any assurance, warranty, or representation about the
information contained on anyone else's site. Also, their expressed
opinions may not be ours, so we don't endorse the content on third
party sites.
By the way, we are pretty open about letting third parties link
to our site, so long as our approval is obtained first. If you'd
like our permission to link to our site, please contact us.
What We Own.
This is our site, so we own everything in it. Here are some
examples of what we own and will enforce:
(1) Copyrights. All content, including but not limited to text,
graphcis, logos, icons, images, downloads, data compilations, designs,
pictures, and the like is our property. In fact, this McGarry Bair
property is protected by the United States and international
copyright laws. We will enforce our copyright rights.
(2) Trademarks. We own the MCGARRY BAIR® trademark
and service mark, which is the subject of federal
registration
with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office. It is why we can use
the R-in-a-circle (®) instead of the unregistered trademark
marking ("™" for trademarks, "℠" for
service marks). In fact, we own any and all versions of the MCGARRY BAIR mark
used on this site.
The marks we own are protected by federal and state trademark laws.
Just so you know, just because a mark does not appear on this page
does not mean that we do not use it or own it. Our marks (or anything
confusingly similar to them) cannot be used without express,
written persmission. Our trademark cannot be used in connection
with any product or service that is not ours, in any manner that
is likely to cause confusion among customers or clients, or in
any manner that disparages or discredits McGarry Bair. This is
true for our trade dress too, which we talk about below.
(3) Trade Dress. Do you like the look and feel of our website?
We do too. How we present the "McGarry Bair" package on this site
is special to us; in fact, it is our "trade dress," and it is
protected by federal and state law. We will enforce our rights
in our trade dress too.
As you will see, we have listed some of our clients on this site. Obviously, those trademarks or service marks belong to the specified client; not us. If we link to them, it is because we have their permission to do so.
Client Use of Our Site.
You may have noticed that we have
a client access link on our site. This is a portal reserved just
for our clients so that they can tap into their information in our
files. Clients that use this link should understand that we gather
information from that portal for business purposes, like collecting
information to continually improve our services. We do not share that
information with third parties.
Your comments and suggestions are always welcome. If you have
some, just contact us.
