The [[Trademark Clearinghouse]] (TMC or TMCH) is a database of trademarks that will be established by [[ICANN]] in order to enhance the protection of [[Intellectual Property|intellectual property]] on the Internet. The main role of TMCH is to serve as a central repository for the information related to the rights of trademark owners to be stored, authenticated and distributed. When a customer attempts to register a new domain and the domain matches up with a trademark existing in the TMCH, the customer will receive a warning that the creation of the domain may be considered [[cybersquatting]]. <small><strong>([[Trademark Clearinghouse|Read full article...]])</strong></small>

TLDs with signed Registry Agreements
As the expansion of the Domain Name space becomes a reality, dozens of new gTLDs are joining the ranks of current TLDs by signed Registry Agreements (RAs) with ICANN.
