What this means

This registration is in, or will soon enter, a USPTO maintenance window. Missing a Section 8 or Section 9 filing can cancel the registration.

Status 702: Status 702 means the registration is active, Section 8 was accepted, and a Section 15 declaration of incontestability was also accepted. Incontestability strengthens your rights by limiting certain challenges after five years of continuous use.
