Together with a German partner company, we have filed a patent application for this product and registered a German utility model. Nevertheless, the stick is being illegally copied, especially in Asia. Please ensure you are purchasing a legal product. Therefore, always inquire about the intellectual property rights for any sticks of this model you are offering; this is the only way to ensure legal protection for you and your customer. We attach great importance to the quality and durability of our product. Our sticks are certified, comply with European regulations, and are marked by us.

Experts in the field of product piracy estimate that approximately 10% of global trade consists of counterfeit products! This not only costs jobs, but also causes lasting damage to the owner of intellectual property rights and to the end consumer due to the extremely inferior quality and performance of the products. Therefore, we advise end consumers to be particularly vigilant when purchasing our products and to contact us directly if in doubt.
The "copycats" pursue only one goal: profit at the expense of others. They only copy successful products for which there is already demand, thus saving on research and development costs, as well as on marketing and patent attorneys. They usually use cheap materials, so the quality is significantly lower and the buyer doesn't enjoy the supposed "bargain" for long.
WARNING!!! Just because it looks like a USB by inCrystal doesn't mean it's an original USB by inCrystal.
Our products impress with their superior workmanship, the assured use of top-quality chipsets with fast read and write speeds, verifiable CE, FCC, ROHS, and REACH certifications, and the renowned inCrystal on-time delivery commitment.
Due to the massive increase in USB CRYSTAL counterfeits on the market, we will significantly intensify our investigations to curb the trade in counterfeits as quickly and as far as possible. Commercial trade in counterfeits is punishable in Germany and other EU countries – and constitutes fraud against the buyer!
As inventors and owners of utility models protecting our products, as well as holders of copyrights to the images of these products, we fundamentally consider any trade in counterfeit items from our USB-CRYSTAL family within the scope of intellectual property rights to be an infringement of intellectual property rights. Therefore, we will file criminal charges for even the slightest infringement of our image rights or registered utility models. Furthermore, we will pursue infringements of intellectual property rights in civil court and seek injunctive relief and damages from commercial market participants.
We will definitely take legal action against any retailer who places counterfeit products of ours on the market within the scope of our intellectual property rights, whereby a legal dispute regularly costs several thousand euros, which the retailer will have to bear.
Please email us if you are offered our products by unauthorized dealers.
