When referring to Softycom trademarks and the names of Softycom software, products, and services, follow these Softycom Trademark and Brand Guidelines.

You may use Softycom trademarks in text solely to refer to and/or link to Softycom’s products and services and in accordance with the terms of these Guidelines.

You may not:

use Softycom logos, logotypes, icons, trade dress or other elements of Softycom packaging, websites or materials unless specifically permitted under these Guidelines or other applicable guidelines;
use the trademarks in the name of your business, product, service, app, domain name, social media account, or other offering (with the exception of seminars and conferences, which are covered by the Publications, Seminars, and Conferences Guidelines;
use the trademarks more prominently than your product or service name;
use the trademarks on promotional merchandise that you are selling or distributing (such as t-shirts, travel mugs, etc.);
do or say anything or use the trademarks in a way that implies affiliation with, or sponsorship, endorsement or approval by Softycom of your products or services;
alter, animate, or distort the trademarks or combine them with any other symbols, words, images or designs, or incorporate them into a tagline or slogan;
use the trademarks in any way that is contrary to these Guidelines and/or the Publications, Seminars, and Conferences Guidelines.

App Guidelines

Your registered publisher name and everything about your app—name, logo, description, screenshots—must be unique and free of Softycom trademarks unless (1) you’ve secured permission from Softycom through a license or equivalent (though such licenses are not generally available in this context); or (2) you’re only using a Softycom trademark (not including logos) to describe that your product is designed to work in conjunction with a Softycom product or service and as long as your app logo and/or name:

does not suggest/give the impression your app is actually published by, affiliated with or endorsed by Softycom; and
denotes your own unique brand so as to clearly signal to users that there is no affiliation or endorsement by Softycom.

In addition, Softycom logos cannot be used as a source identifier for your app icon.

Publications, Seminars, and Conferences

You may refer to Softycom product, service, and technology names on the cover of magazines and periodicals and in the title of seminars and conferences, pursuant to the Publications, Seminars, and Conferences Guidelines.

In addition, Softycom logos cannot be used as a source identifier for your app icon.

Social Media Guidelines

The name of your social media account, any and all pages or communities, cannot begin with a Softycom trademark. In addition, Softycom logos cannot be used in a way that might suggest affiliation with Softycom, including, but not limited to, the account, profile, or header images. The only exceptions to these requirements are if (1) you’ve secured permission from Softycom through a license or equivalent (though such licenses are not generally available in this context); or (2) you’re using a Softycom trademark (not including logos) to describe the purpose of your account, page, or community provided that:

you are not suggesting affiliation with or endorsement by Softycom; and,
your account does not use the name or likeness of any prominent individuals within Softycom.

For example, you cannot name your account, page, or community “Softycom Products.” However, it would be acceptable to name your account, page, or community “Softycom Apps” or “Information about Softycom Products” as long as you do not use the Softycom logos or otherwise suggest any affiliation with Softycom.
