About ICBC

About our trademarks

Our trademarks are valuable to us. They preserve and support our brand.

To our customers, they're a visible assurance of the quality and reliability they can expect from ICBC. We want our customers to be able to trust the products and services they receive under our brand and through our partners.

Incorrect or unauthorized use of our trademarks erodes the value of our brand, our reputation, and our customers' trust in us. That's why we work so hard to make sure they are used appropriately, correctly, and with our permission.

Protecting our trademarks

​We consider each situation on a case-by-case basis with the objective to protect our brand and the public.

The following are incorrect ​or unauthorized uses which are of high concern to us because they present situations that are misleading to the public.

  • Our trademark is used in a way that implies a relationship with, or sponsorship, or endorsement by ICBC that doesn't exist.

  • Our trademark is used to identify the commercial products or services of another company or individual.

  • Our trademark is used in a way that is not in accordance with the license agreement or usage guidelines.

We want to protect our customers from being misled into buying goods or services that they believe are approved, authorized, or endorsed by ICBC when they are not.
