IMPORTANCE OF Industry IoT Consortium NAME AND TRADEMARKS

The Industry IoT Consortium corporate name, the Industry IoT Consortium logos and other Industry IoT Consortium trademarks and service marks (collectively, the "Industry IoT Consortium Marks") are among the most critical elements of Industry IoT Consortium's identity and convey many aspects of our business. The Industry IoT Consortium Marks are widely recognized, positive industry symbols and can be a very effective way to highlight your commitment to distributed object computing. The strength of the Object Management Group and the Industry IoT Consortium Marks can help command higher prices, larger market share, strong customer commitment and can open the door to new business opportunities. Industry IoT Consortium members are encouraged to collectively help us build our brands.
Industry IoT Consortium's purpose is to promote software specifications and standards. Industry IoT Consortium has many names for its specifications, and strong brand names can command larger market shares and stronger customer commitment. When we talk about these products, we do so in a consistent manner and associate the product name to the Industry IoT Consortium brand to reinforce the brand identity.

The Industry IoT Consortium Marks are available for use on a case-by-case review basis by members, non-members and Industry IoT Consortium partners for a variety of marketing and educational purposes. Opportunities include product packaging, signs and graphics, advertising, press releases, Web pages, presentations, technical documentation and more. This document provides the basic style guidelines with which to ensure consistency.

REQUESTS FOR USE

Industry IoT Consortium members and others interested in using Industry IoT Consortium Marks for appropriate marketing and educational purposes should submit the "Request to Use Industry IoT Consortium Trademarks" form. All requests for use of Industry IoT Consortium Marks will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Actual usage of the Marks will also be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Industry IoT Consortium LOGOS

The Industry IoT Consortium Marks that are graphic logos are the visual representations of the organization. Each represents Industry IoT Consortium and its standards in a unique way to customers and to the public. As a symbol, each Mark is the prime vehicle for establishing presence and identity.

  • Use Industry IoT Consortium Artwork - Do Not Re-Design the Logos
     
  • Where you choose to use both your own unique company identifier(s) or graphic style along with the Industry IoT Consortium identity (logo) system, your business identity must be presented in the dominant style, always larger than the Industry IoT Consortium Identity graphic. In addition, the two must be separated and presented as two separate and distinct elements.
     
  • Use the "Graphic Styles for Industry IoT Consortium Logos" at http://www.iiconsortium.org/legal/graphical_style.htm.
     
  • The Industry IoT Consortium marketing department at +1-781-444 0404 or trademarks can supply a simplified logo graphic format of an Industry IoT Consortium logo for use on clothing or marketing incentives.

PROPER USAGE OF Industry IoT Consortium TRADEMARKS AND LOGOS

Unless you have express, prior, written permission from Industry IoT Consortium:

  • Do not use Industry IoT Consortium Marks in any manner, except in making objectively truthful, factual references to Industry IoT Consortium and the specifications provided by Industry IoT Consortium.
     
  • Do not use Industry IoT Consortium Marks as all or part of a product name or in or on any product, packaging, labels, advertisements, press releases, marketing materials, web pages, trade show materials, or any other materials.
     
  • Do not use Industry IoT Consortium Marks in any manner that might be understood to suggest an association with or sponsorship by Industry IoT Consortium, nor an endorsement (express or implied) by Industry IoT Consortium of a training program, seminar series, or product. However, Industry IoT Consortium Marks may be used as part of a truthful statement that a company is an "Industry IoT Consortium Member" or "Industry IoT Consortium Strategic Partner".
     
  • Do not attempt to claim trademark rights in any Industry IoT Consortium Mark by using or registering an Industry IoT Consortium Mark as all or any part of a product or service name, trademark, service mark, logo, domain name, trade name, or "doing business as" name (d/b/a).
     
  • Do not use Industry IoT Consortium Marks in any fashion that could result in a likelihood of confusion between Industry IoT Consortium specifications and services and the goods and services of any other entity.
     
  • Always use Industry IoT Consortium Marks consistently and distinctively, distinguishing our marks from other words in the text in some way. This distinction includes capitalizing all letters in the trademark, except in cases where the mark specifically includes lower-case letters, using initial caps or initial caps with quotation marks, using italics, boldface, underline, or color. Do not abbreviate trademarks or use only a portion of a mark.
     
  • Do not refer to a product as being "Industry IoT Consortium" or "Industry IoT Consortium certified" except with prior written permission from Industry IoT Consortium.
     
  • Trademarks are adjectives, and must only be used as such. Marks should never be used as nouns or verbs, nor should marks be pluralized or used in the possessive form.
