What does "Registered Trademark" mean?

Or in other words: what does the "R" in a circle mean? 

Registered Trademark (in German: Eingetragene Marke) is a legally protected symbol that is registered in an official trademark registry, such as the German Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The registration grants the trademark owner exclusive rights to use this symbol for specific goods or services. The main aspects are:

• Legal protection: The owner has the exclusive right to use the trademark for the registered goods or services. Other companies or individuals are not allowed to use this trademark without permission.

• The ^® symbol: The symbol is used to indicate that the trademark is officially registered.

• Enforceability: The owner can take legal action against trademark infringements to protect their rights, such as filing injunctions or claims for damages.

In contrast, the **™** symbol is used to indicate a **non-registered trademark**, which can claim similar protection through frequent use, but without the same legally binding status as a registered trademark.
