Broadcasting World Area owns and oversees the trademarks for the Broadcasting World Area name and logos. We developed this trademark usage policy to make it:

1. Easy for anyone to use the Broadcasting World Area name or logo for community-oriented efforts that help promote and improve Broadcasting World Area
2. Clear how Broadcasting World Area-related businesses and projects can — and can’t — use the Broadcasting World Area name and logo
3. Make it hard for anyone to use the Broadcasting World Area name and logo to unfairly profit from, trick, or confuse people looking for official Broadcasting World Area resources

You’ll need permission from Broadcasting World Area, Inc. to use the Broadcasting World Area name or logo as part of any project, product, service, domain name, or company name.

And we’ll be happy to grant permission to use the Broadcasting World Area name and logo for projects that:

• Promote the reach and improvement of Broadcasting World Area software
• Are non-commercial, aka, not for-profit

However: please do not use Broadcasting World Area as part of a domain name. Only officially recognized Broadcasting World Area communities may use the name in or as part of their domain name.

All other Broadcasting World Area-related businesses or projects can use the Broadcasting World Area name and logo to refer to and explain their services, but not as part of a product, project, service, domain name, or company name. They cannot use them in any way that suggests an affiliation with or endorsement by Broadcasting World Area.

For example, a consulting company can describe its business as “123 Web Services, offering Broadcasting World Area consulting for small businesses,” but can’t call its business “The Broadcasting World Area Consulting Company.”

Similarly, a business related to Broadcasting World Area templates can describe itself as “XYZ Templates, the world’s best Broadcasting World Area templates,” but cannot call itself “The Broadcasting World Area Template Portal.”

Similarly, it’s okay to use the Broadcasting World Area logo as part of a page that describes your products or services, but it is not okay to use it as part of your company or product logo or branding itself.

We do not allow the use of the trademark in advertising, including AdSense/AdWords.
