Ennostar spares no effort to ensure the trade secrets, patents, trademarks, and the information security generated from colleagues’ achievements are well protected so the important information will not be leaked out and the competitiveness of company can be sustained. Ennostar implements the following measures to manage its IP:

IP Rights Protection: Ennostar files applications or registrations for its IP rights including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. Ennostar also maintains its intangible assets in various countries based on the industry evolvement so the related rights are valid during the terms.
Trade Secret Registration: Important subsidiaries have the trade secret registration system to keep the company’s valuable intangible asset. R&D engineers are also required to take engineering notebooks to preserve the development history and records, which can be the defense evidence for possible IP disputes in the future.
Due Diligence: during the product development, Ennostar performs relevant art search to keep up with the state of the art, inspire the innovation, or design around.
Technology Collaboration: when collaborating with third parties for R&D or OEM businesses, Ennostar stipulates the terms to protect the confidential information and IP ownership in the written contracts drafted by the legal team or outside counsels.
Confidential Information Management: the IT and Administration departments manage the IT security and access controls to control the information transmission. Ennostar also has training programs to raise colleagues’ awareness of secrecy protection.
Marketing and Promotion: Marketing team attends to the copyright and trademark issues when planning the promotion campaign.
