Funnily enough the word Pomodoro means Tomato in Italian and there are hundreds of apps on iTunes with that word. I guess my app must of caught their eye.. maybe. I looked at their website trademark guidelines (http://pomodorotechnique.com/the-pomodoro-technique-trademark-guidelines/) and yes I see the rules around using those words.
Yet when I search online there are literally hundreds and hundreds of sites & apps using that word. The claimant supposedly can give explicit and formal permission to use the word but they do not seem to respond to my emails :(
I have removed the app from European store where the supposed trade mark violations are and have not heard since from the claimant or apple.
Any advise on what I should do next? Cheers.
I hope no other fruit or vegetable words get trademarked :O
