Yes, you can use a competitor’s trademark in your advertising in Alaska, but there are certain requirements that you need to follow.
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), using a competitor’s trademark in advertising may be permissible if it is done in a way that is not likely to cause confusion among consumers about the source of the products or services being advertised [2].
However, you should avoid using a competitor’s trademark in a way that suggests endorsement or sponsorship by the competitor, or that is likely to cause confusion about the origin of the products or services being advertised.
Additionally, you should ensure that your use of the trademark is not likely to dilute the value of the trademark or tarnish the reputation of the competitor.
It is recommended that you consult with a legal professional to ensure that your use of a competitor’s trademark in advertising complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
