Trademark License Enforcement Audit

The audit process consists of Bluetooth SIG reviewing product(s) that have been released to the market using Bluetooth Trademarks. During the audit process, Bluetooth SIG will use the product name and model number found on the company website and marketplace, including third-party retailers, then compare this information with product data found in the Bluetooth Product Listing Database.

Bluetooth SIG recommends each member ensure their products using Bluetooth trademarks have successfully completed the Qualification process and can be found in the Bluetooth Product Listing Database.

Below is an example of an audit:
