<h2 id="_introduction">Introduction</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This document, the &#8220;Policy&#8221;, outlines the NANOMSG project&#8217;s
(the &#8220;Project&#8221;) policy for the use of our trademarks. While our software
is available under a free and open source software license, the copyright
licenses do not include an implied right or license to use our trademarks.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The role of trademarks is to provide assurance about the quality of the
products or services with which the trademark is associated. But because
an open source license allows your unrestricted modification of the copyrighted
software, we cannot be sure that your modifications to the software are ones
that will not be misleading if distributed under the same name. Instead,
this Policy describes the circumstances under which you may use our trademarks.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In this Policy we are not trying to limit the lawful use of our trademarks,
but rather describe for you what we consider the parameters of lawful use to
be. Trademark law can be ambiguous, so we hope to provide enough clarity for
you to understand whether we will consider your use licensed or non-infringing.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The sections that follow describe what trademarks are covered by this Policy,
as well as uses of the trademarks that are allowed without additional
permission from us. If you want to use our trademarks in ways that are not
described in this Policy, please see "Where to get further information" below
for contact information. Any use that does not comply with this Policy or for
which we have not separately provided written permission is not a use that we
have approved, so you must decide for yourself whether the use is nevertheless
lawful.</p>

<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_our_commitment_to_open_source_principles">Our commitment to open source principles</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>We want to encourage and facilitate the use of our trademarks by the community,
but do so in a way that still ensures that the trademarks are meaningful as a
source and quality indicator for our software and the associated goods and
services and continue to embody the high reputation of the software and the
community associated with it. This Policy therefore tries to strike the proper
balance between: 1) our need to ensure that our trademarks remain reliable
indicators of the qualities that they are meant to preserve and 2) our
community members' desire to be full participants in the Project.</p>

<h2 id="_universal_considerations_for_all_uses">Universal considerations for all uses</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Whenever you use one of the Marks, you must always do so in a way that does
not mislead anyone, either directly or by omission, about exactly what they
are getting and from whom. The law reflects this requirement in two major ways
described in more detail below: it prohibits creating a "likelihood of
confusion" but allows for "nominative use." For example, you cannot say you
are distributing the NANOMSG software when you&#8217;re distributing a modified
version of it, because people would be confused when they are not getting
the same features and functionality they would get if they downloaded the
software directly from us. You also cannot use our logo on your website in a
way that suggests that your website is an official website or that we endorse
your website. You can, though, say you like the NANOMSG software, that you
participate in the NANOMSG community, that you are providing an unmodified
version of the NANOMSG software, or that you wrote a book describing how to
use the NANOMSG software.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This fundamental requirement, that it is always clear to people what they are
getting and from whom, is reflected throughout this Policy. It should also
serve as your guide if you are not sure about how you are using the Marks.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>In addition:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>You may not use the Marks in association with the use or distribution of
software if you are also not in compliance with the copyright license for
the software.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>You may not use or register, in whole or in part, the Marks as part of your
own trademark, service mark, domain name, company name, trade name,
product name or service name.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Trademark law does not allow your use of names or trademarks that are too
similar to ours. You therefore may not use an obvious variation of any of
our Marks or any phonetic equivalent, foreign language equivalent, takeoff,
or abbreviation for a similar or compatible product or service. We would
consider the following too similar to one of our Marks:</p>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Any mark combining NANO and MSG.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Any mark combining NANO and MESSAGE.</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>You agree that you will not acquire any rights in the Marks and that any
goodwill generated by your use of the Marks inures solely to our benefit.</p>

<p>Of course, you can place your own trademarks or logos on versions of the

<h2 id="_general_considerations_about_trademarks_and_their_use">General considerations about trademarks and their use</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_what_trademark_law_is_about">What trademark law is about</h3>
<div class="sect3">
<h4 id="_what_is_a_trademark">What is a trademark?</h4>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol or design, or a combination of words,
phrases, symbols or designs, that identifies and distinguishes the source of
the goods of one party from those of others. A service mark is the same as a
trademark, except that it identifies and distinguishes the source of a service
rather than a product. "Trade dress" or "get up" refers to the look and feel of
the packaging, which in this context can include the layout, colors, images,
and design choices in a web page. Throughout this Policy, the terms "trademark"
and "mark" refer to both trademarks, service marks and trade dress.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>However, the use of a word is "not as a trademark" when it is used functionally
as part of the software program, for example, in a file, folder, directory,
or path name. Use in this way is not a trademark infringement.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect3">
<h4 id="_what_is_likelihood_of_confusion">What is "likelihood of confusion"?</h4>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There is trademark infringement if your use of a trademark has created a
"likelihood of confusion." This means using a trademark in a way that will
likely confuse or deceive the relevant consuming public about the source of
a product or service using the mark in question. For example, if the "Foo"
software extension removes all double spaces after periods, but someone else
later creates "Foo" software that adds a third space after periods, consumers
would be confused between the two and the newcomer will likely be a trademark
infringer. As another example, if a company makes "Foobar" software and a third
party offers training called "Foobar Certification," a person is likely to
believe, wrongly, that the certification is being offered by the makers of
Foobar software. The third party has likely misled consumers about the source
of its training and is a trademark infringer.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect3">
<h4 id="_what_is_nominative_use">What is "nominative" use?</h4>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So-called "nominative use" (or "nominative fair use"), which is the name of the
doctrine under U.S. trademark law, allows the use of another&#8217;s trademark where
it is necessary for understanding. Other countries' trademark laws also have
similar provisions. For example, a car repair shop that specializes in a
particular brand of automobile, VW for example, must be allowed to say that
they repair VW cars. Here is what you should consider when deciding whether
your use of a trademark is a nominative fair use:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>Whether you can identify the product or service in question without using
the trademark;</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Whether you are avoiding a likelihood of confusion in the way that you
have used the trademark; and</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Whether you have used only as much as is necessary to identify the product
or service.</p>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>With our "Foobar Certification" example above, the person offering the
certification would be allowed to say, under the nominative fair use doctrine,
that she is offering "Maude&#8217;s Certification for Foobar software."</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>It is almost never the case that using a Logo will be a nominative fair use
since it will be a rare case where the logo is needed for strictly
informational purposes.</p>
