FSFE Brand and Logo Usage Policy

FSFE Community Members, as well as FSFE Volunteer Groups, may use FSFE Marks, if they comply with this policy. This policy may refer to these people who may use FSFE Marks as “you”.

Scope of Policy

This policy shall apply to all trademarks of the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE).

Trademarks of the FSFE (“FSFE Marks") include both registered and unregistered trademarks, including logos, non-stylized wordmarks, and the trade dress of the FSFE website and promotional materials.

Wordmarks refer to text-only words (such as “Public Money? Public Code!” or “Youth Hacking 4 Freedom”) that are used in connection with the work or project that they represent, to identify the source. Wordmarks include all official translated and transliterated marks of their English original versions.

Trade dress refers to the design (“look and feel”) of a website, article, or other material (digital or physical) that identifies the source of the website or material.

This policy shall apply whenever someone wishes to use an FSFE Mark, and explains how an FSFE Mark may be used.
