WARNING:
Petitioner/applicant is cautioned to avoid submitting personal information in documents filed in a patent application that may
contribute to identity theft. Personal information such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers
(other than a check or credit card authorization form PTO-2038 submitted for payment purposes) is never required by the
USPTO to support a petition or an application. If this type of personal information is included in documents submitted to the
USPTO, petitioners/applicants should consider redacting such personal information from the documents before submitting them
to the USPTO. Petitioner/applicant is advised that the record of a patent application is available to the public after publication of
the application (unless a non-publication request in compliance with 37 CFR 1.213(a) is made in the application) or issuance of a
patent. Furthermore, the record from an abandoned application may also be available to the public if the application is
referenced in a published application or an issued patent (see 37 CFR 1.14). Checks and credit card authorization forms PTO2038 submitted for payment purposes are not retained in the application file and therefore are not publicly available.
I hereby declare that all statements made herein of my own knowledge are true and that all statements made on information and
belief are believed to be true; and further that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false statements and
the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and that such willful false statements
may jeopardize the validity of the application or any patent issued thereon.
