Questão jurídica principal
Whether the sign 'AdRank' is descriptive and lacking distinctiveness for the refused services
Decisão extraída
Yes. For the relevant services, the target public understands 'AdRank' as meaning 'advertising rank' and not as a fanciful term.
Fundamentação extraída
The sign is composed of the English words 'ad' and 'rank'; in light of the services in marketing, business analysis, research and IT, the relevant consumers and professionals would perceive a descriptive meaning without special mental effort. The capitalization of the middle letter reinforces the two-element reading.
