<h1>Trademark and Copyright licensing</h1>
<h1>Trademark licensing</h1>
<p>
One of the functions that the GNOME Foundation provides is to
act as the legal owner for such GNOME project assets as the
GNOME name and the GNOME foot. These trademarks are some of
GNOME's most important assets. We must protect the trademarks in
order to keep them. Therefore, we have some guidelines for their
use and a standard agreement for user groups. These cover many
common situations; if you need permission to use the GNOME
trademarks in other ways or have other questions, please
contact <a href="mailto:licensing@gnome.org">licensing@gnome.org</a>.
</p>
<p>
The GNOME trademarks are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>The word GNOME&#x2122;</li>
<li>The GNOME foot logo: <link rel="icon" type="image/png" href="http://www.gnome.org/img/logo/text-64.png"/></li>
<ul>
<h2>Third-party usage guidelines</h2>
<p>
Under the law, “fair use” of trademarks is allowed (for example,
trademarks typically may be used without permission in magazine
and book reviews). The <a href="/licensing/guidelines/">GNOME
Foundation trademark usage guidelines for third parties</a>
describe what is appropriate fair use of the GNOME trademarks.
</p>
<h2>User group license agreement</h2>
<p>
User groups are a very important part of the GNOME
community. User groups have a need to make use of the GNOME
trademarks in such ways as creating and distributing marketing
materials or creating web sites. (The usage of the term user
group here is broad: the canonical example would be a group of
people using and promoting GNOME in a specific locality, but it
could also be a group of developers working on an open source
GNOME application or many similar non-commerical uses.)
</p>
<p>
By agreeing to the <a href="/licensing/usergroup/">GNOME user
group license agreement</a> a user group obtains permission to
use the GNOME trademarks under certain conditions.
