The simple registration of domain names of interest may not be sufficient.

At the end of 1999, Kivial was established starting from this consideration and from the lack - in our opinion - of specialized structures for the protection on the internet of companies' interests related to trademarks, copyrights and, more generically, to innovative and distinctive marks.

Kivial wants to become a reference for all those companies and individuals who understand the need for a serious and accurate protection of their rights on the internet.

Kivial has started its activity by specializing in domain protection, in cases of "recovery" of misused domains and, in general, in solving all those problems that are related to a correct management of domains.

Upon developing its own activities, Kivial has then added all the services that are connected to the world of internet, thus ranging from domain registration to the creation and management of websites, from computer assistance to hosting, from on-line surveillance of trademarks to the creation of dedicated servers.

Two of the basic principles upon which Kivial's modus operandi is based are

	Kivial respects and considers third parties' rights on trademarks, pictures, films, drawings, and so on, avoiding, inasmuch as possible, that the correct management of a domain or a website interferes therewith.
	Kivial aims at guaranteeing its clients the actual property, not only the use, of the domain, also taking care that the latter be characterizing, protected, usable and defendable. Moreover, thanks to a very important partnership, Kivial can provide a complete assistance concerning the protection of trademarks. As regards both the protection of new companies' trademarks on the internet, and also the protection as domains of already registered trademarks, Kivial numbers among its clients both leading firms of the Italian economic scenario, and small entrepreneurial businesses. In order to safeguard its clients' privacy, Kivial has chosen not to list them on this website.
