No active CPSC recall overlaps this category in our current window. Still verify product-specific compliance. Scanned 55 active CPSC recalls.

🏭 Supplier / assignee screen NO MATCH

Screened Microsoft Corporation against OFAC SDN, OFAC Consolidated, OIG LEIE. No exclusion/sanctions match.
Business-entity screening only. NOT a consumer report; not for credit/employment/insurance/tenancy.

Design-patent scope only and data-derived, NOT legal advice. Expiry is computed from grant/filing dates; utility expiry is a statutory MAXIMUM that can lapse earlier on unpaid maintenance fees. This does not assess utility/trade-dress/trademark coverage or active litigation. Verify freedom-to-operate with patent counsel before manufacturing.
