When using a Silverpeas logo, you must never modify the design, add or delete any words, or change any colors or proportions. The logo may be scaled proportionally. The logo may in its entirety be displayed in black on white background OR in white on dark - black or one-coloured - background. The typesize of the trademark notice symbol may be adjusted.

The Silverpeas Logo must be used as a stand-alone icon in accordance with this Trademark Policy, without any other third party logos and/or trademarks combined or associated with it.

When using any Silverpeas Mark, you should use the TM symbol. This symbol provides notice to third parties of Silverpeas rights in its Marks. Silverpeas word marks must bear the trademark notice symbol TM in the first and most prominent usage of a mark and again in the first appearance of a word mark in the text or body of copy. Notice symbols must always appear with all Silverpeas Logos. Wherever possible, trademark notice symbols should be superscripted immediately after all Silverpeas. Marks. Once proper trademark notice symbols are used, and a Silverpeas Mark is correctly attributed to Silverpeas.(as further explained below), in permitted materials, it is not ordinarily necessary to mark subsequent appearances of the trademark in the same text.

All uses of a Silverpeas Logo, such as the "Content managed by Silverpeas" Logo, in a user interface should be linked from the logo to www.silverpeas.com.

A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol or design, or a combination of those things, that distinguishes one company's products and services from the products and services of another. Thus, although a trademark is a symbol of the source of a product or service, a trademark is not the good or service itself. For example, Silverpeas brands its content management product and its other products and services using the Silverpeas trademark and the other trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos identified in Section 3(A) of this Trademark Policy (collectively, the "Silverpeas Marks" or "Marks").

A service mark is simply a trademark that identifies the source of a service. A logo is a trademark that incorporates a design of some sort, such as the Silverpeas Mark that includes the "turbine" design. A trademark is not the same as a copyright or a patent.

The Silverpeas Public License is one of the ways by which Silverpeas distributes Silverpeas product. TheSilverpeasPublic License permits third parties to use and redistribute the underlying software under certain circumstances. Such use and/or redistribution of Silverpeassoftware products are much welcomed by Silverpeas, but should be distinguished from the use of the Silverpeas Marks. The Silverpeas Public License does not provide any license or right to use any SilverpeasMark in any form or media. Thus, although a Silverpeas Public License licensee may redistribute the underlying software, a Silverpeas Public License licensee may not use any Silverpeas Mark in doing so without the express prior written permission of Silverpeas. Otherwise, users could be misled into thinking that revisions made by a Silverpeas Public License licensee were created or endorsed by Silverpeas, or that those revisions met the quality control standards of Silverpeas.

This Trademark Policy applies to all of Silverpeas authorized partners, authorized resellers, licensees, customers, and users of Silverpeas products and services, or products that incorporate Silverpeas products or services, as well as other third parties who wish to use the Silverpeas Marks (referred to as "Third Parties" or "you"). However, except as expressly provided in Section 1(A) below, this Trademark Policy does not constitute a license, implied or otherwise, to use any Silverpeas Mark or the Silverpeas company name. Although we encourage use of the Silverpeas "Conditional use logos" as provided in Section 1(A) above, generally, no person or entity may use any Silverpeas Mark without the prior, express written permission of Silverpeas.
