BeFriends Corporation uses the trademark of Community Life Inc. a social media site, as a meta tag without Community Life's permission. This may be permissible (a) if the appropriating site has nothing to do with the meta tag.

Explanation:

The using of the Meta Tag is Permissible because the trade mark name is being used for a different product or service and it does not involve any kind of trade mark infringement.

William Oliver · Answer 2

This may be permissible " if the use constitutes trademark infringement". Answer: Option B

Explanation:

A form of intellectual property composed of a distinctive symbol, logo, or phrase distinguishing goods or services of a specific source from those of others, while trademarks used to distinguish services are generally referred to as brand marks, this is understood as a "trademark". Infringement of the mark is a breach of the exclusive rights connected to a mark without the approval of the proprietor of the mark or any licensee. Many companies misguide people by using approximately similar tags or logo to attract customers toward their products.
