@:color.soft is a network of popular education, which has its origins in the education world, which is principally dedicated to free (as in free speech) software. It is collaboratively organized around three main issues: promotion, dissemination and development of free software, enhancement of open source culture, and an online platform of open services. ## For an open Internet The use of free software and open standards on the Internet is the main purpose of our project @:(html.dio). Access to source code is the cornerstone of open source principles. @:color.soft commits itself to place each application available in its projects under [free license](https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.fr.html). In case of improvement of the code, @:color.soft commits itself to place the contribution under free license (compatible with the original license) and will encourage any voluntary contribution from users by inviting them to enter in contact with the author. @:color.soft commits itself to make the source code accessible, whether by publishing a link pointing to the official website of the application, or, if the latter is no longer available, by publishing the code in question on a repository. Doing this, @:color.soft demonstrates its probity by allowing every user to check the source code, to potentially improve it, and above all to ensure that no unfair use will be made of his data, identity, or rights. Users will then be able to knowingly use the available applications and learn about all their features, advantages, limits and possible uses. None of the data produced with the help of these applications belong to @:color.soft, who does not apply any copyright nor censors your content. However, any content that would be considered infringing or illegal by French law, once duly signaled, will be immediately deleted. ## For a decentralized Internet By offering open applications online, @:color.soft intends to promote alternative solutions to proprietary applications that some companies propose in order to achieve monopolies and make abusive use of personal data. These alternatives are examples of the diversity of available open-source solutions which can be used for personal or collective purpose. In this perspective, @:color.soft is commited to foster their dissemination by publishing tutorials explaining how to install these applications on your own server. Equal access to these applications is a strong commitment: by offering them for free, @:color.soft wishes to promote their use to the largest extent, and to give a proof of concept that a decentralized and egalitarian Internet is possible. ## For an ethical Internet The ethics of opensource software is about sharing and independence. @:color.soft commits itself to never practice any censorship of the contents, nor any surveillance of the actions of its users, and to never answer any administrative or authorities demands without a formal legal request. In return, users commit themselves, in production or hosting of their contents, to respect the frameworks provided by law. We do not practice any discrimation among users, so as to ensure the greatest accessibility. Personal data will not be exploited for commercial issues, or transmitted to a third party, nor used for purposes that are not specified in the present charter. However, users must be aware that their data might be rendered accessible, especially when they make them public in the context of a collaborative application. In this case, users remain responsible for their content. ## For an Internet of solidarity @:color.soft is a not-for-profit. Its volunteers and employees devote their time to ensure the continuity of the services offered to users. Our business model is based on mutualisation of energies and costs. Our services are free, but it does not mean they cost nothing. If a large number of supporters financially encouraged @:color.soft to maintain its services, an even larger number of persons would be able to use them, and they could even be improved. @:color.soft has a popular education approach, and thus shares as much knowledge as it can in order to promote the use of free software and teach users how to install free services on their servers. Sharing technical and cognitive ressources is what makes the Internet a common good, available for everyone and belonging to no one.
## FRAMASOFT’s Trademark Policy This declaration complements the code of conduct. If you comply with the code of conduct, you will probably not have to check whether your actions conflict with this declaration. However, if you need to use one of our brands, we encourage you to read it attentively. ### Introduction FRAMASOFT is a non-profit organisation. FRAMASOFT owns and oversees the trademarks for the names and logos of FRAMASOFT as well as a other FRAMASOFT-related brands and softwares. The softwares listed below are Free Software. Their source code are available to download, modify and redistribute under a Free Software license. However, the software license does not cover the use of trademarks. The proper use of FRAMASOFT trademarks is essential to inform users whether or not the software stand behind products or services. ### Trademarks FRAMASOFT owns the following trademarks in both word and logo form including brands, slogans, styles: - FRAMASOFT is a registered trademark in France under class 9, 16, 38, 41, 42 ; INPI number 4694656 - FRAMASOFT is a registered trademark in Europe under class 9, 16, 25, 35, 38, 41, 42 ; EUIPO number 3575587 - PEERTUBE is a registered trademark in France under class 9, 42 ; INPI number 4662501 - PEERTUBE is a registered trademark in Europe under class 9, 42 ; EUIPO number 018265042 - MOBILIZON is a registered trademark in France under class 9, 42, 45 ; INPI number 4662537 - MOBILIZON is a registered trademark in Europe under class 9, 42 ; EUIPO number 018265551 ### Objectives The objective of this trademark policy is to clarify proper usage of FRAMASOFT’s trademarks by third parties to prevent misuse that can confuse users about products and services from FRAMASOFT. At the same time, this policy encourages individuals, organisations and businesses to work with FRAMASOFT under the terms of this policy and the code of conduct. ### When you shouldn’t use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks Here are a few examples that conflict with the way we use our brands, and would lead us to use trademark law to regulate abuse. But quite apart from the legal issue, it’s also a question of common sense: - Use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks in a company or organisation name: seriously, do you want to impersonate us? - Use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks as name of a product or service: some companies would be delighted, but it’s really not a good idea because it would mean advertising on our behalf… and you wouldn’t want anyone to speak on your behalf, right? - Use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks in a domain name, with or without commercial purposes, including social media: a domain name is also a mark of identity, and if you use one of our brands as a domain name, you’re misleading users into thinking that the site or service belongs to Framasoft. ### When you can use the FRAMASOFT’s trademarks without asking permission But there are many cases where you can use our brands! And we even encourage such uses: - Communicating facts about FRAMASOFT and it’s projects without suggesting sponsorship or endorsement. - Advertising your product or service relating to FRAMASOFT and it’s projects in a way that is not misleading. - Describing that your software is based on a FRAMASOFT’s Software code or it is compatible with your product. - Displaying FRAMASOFT’s trademarks on your own website solely as a hyperlink to a FRAMASOFT’s website. And of course, don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any doubts or need specific permission. Our contact details are at the end of this statement. ### Finally, here are a few tips on how to use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks properly - Use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks exact as shown. Any scaling must retain the original proportions of the logo (see [our branding style guide](https://framasoft.org/graphics/)) - Use FRAMASOFT’s trademarks only as an adjective, never as a noun or verb. Example: Framasoft’s Peertube app. - Wherever appropriate, include a trademark attribution notice. It’s very simple, like this: “<Framasoft’s product> is a registered trademark of the European Union.” - Be careful not to suggest that any of our brands are affiliated with you or any of your products or services. Don’t forget that Framasoft is an independent organization. - Sometimes our brands are usurped or used for slogans or advertising purposes, suggesting that we endorse an action or service. We refer to the code of conduct: don’t be an asshole… ### Contact For any queries with respect to these guidelines, please send an email to https://contact.framasoft.org.
