Deadline Alerts

What Are Deadline Alerts?

Deadline alerts notify you when important dates are approaching for trademarks you're monitoring. GleanMark sends escalating reminders at 30 days, 7 days, and 1 day before each deadline.

When You'll Receive Deadline Alerts

Simple rule: When a deadline approaches for any trademark in your portfolio, you'll receive an alert.

Deadline types include:

  • Renewal Deadlines - When a trademark registration needs to be renewed
  • Statement of Use - When you need to file proof that you're using the mark in commerce
  • Office Action Response - When you need to respond to USPTO examiner questions
  • Opposition Period - When the deadline to oppose a published mark is approaching

Alert Urgency Levels

30 Days BeforeYellow alert - Time to plan and prepare your response
7 Days BeforeRed alert - Urgent action needed
1 Day BeforeCritical alert - Immediate action required
