MEMORANDUM **

VBS Distribution, Inc. and Joseph Nguyen (collectively, VBS) appeal the district court’s order denying VBS’s motion for preliminary injunction. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1), and we reverse and remand.

The district court erred in holding that because the overall configuration of VBS’s live auction television show was functional, VBS failed to carry its burden of showing a likelihood of success on the merits of its trade dress infringement claim. As with restaurants’ trade dress infringement claims, VBS can claim protectable trade dress in the overall look and feel of VBS’s live auction show, regardless whether individual elements that constitute part of the claimed trade dress are functional. *See Clicks Billiards, Inc. v. Sixshooters, Inc.,*251 F.3d 1252, 1259 (9th Cir. 2001).

The record shows that VBS’s customer list contains identifying information that is not readily accessible to the public or to other businesses, including purchase histories, methods of payment, and amounts of payment. Moreover, because VBS has listed individuals who have already expressed an interest in purchasing jewelry from an auction television show, the customer list has independent economic value to VBS’s competitors. *See MAI Sys. Corp. v. Peak Computer, Inc.,*991 F.2d 511, 521 (9th Cir. 1993). Therefore, the district court erred in rejecting VBS’s trade secret misappropriation claim on the ground that VBS failed to show that a reasonably diligent competitor could not readily obtain the information in the customer list.

The district court erred in holding that VBS failed .to present sufficient evidence that Nutrivita’s advertising was literally false with respect to two of the challenged statements. *See Southland Sod Farms v. Stover Seed Co.,*108 F.3d 1134, 1139 (9th Cir. 1997). First, Nutrivita’s advertising claim that Arthro-7 was “100% herbal” was contradicted by Arthro-7’s own ingredient list, which includes animal products; there is no evidence in the record that “herbal” means something other than “of, relating to, or made of herbs,” Webster’s New International Dictionary 1058 (3rd ed. 1993) in the supplement industry. Second, VBS’s *545claim that Nutrivita’s advertising statement, “8 Million Bottles Sold,” is literally false is essentially undisputed by Nutrivi-ta; indeed, its CEO admitted there was no basis for this claim. Nutrivita’s advertising statement, “Doctor Recommended,” however, is not literally false, and VBS provided no evidence to substantiate its claim that the statement would be misleading to the public.

Because the district court erred in analyzing VBS’s claims of trade dress infringement, trade secret misappropriation and false advertising, we reverse and remand to the district court to reconsider the elements of the preliminary injunction analysis in light of this disposition. *See Winter v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc.,*555 U.S. 7, 22, 129 S.Ct. 365, 172 L.Ed.2d 249 (2008); *All for the Wild Rockies v. Cottrell,*632 F.3d 1127, 1134 (9th Cir. 2011).

REVERSED AND REMANDED.
