### 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…
