DIT Trademarks Policy

We have formulated the DIT trademark policy with the following objectives in mind

  1. We want to encourage use of the DIT logo and name by the DIT community for non-commercial purposes, while regulating that use in order to refrain from confusion on the part of DIT users and the general public, to maintain the value of the image and reputation of the trademarks and to avoid them from inappropriate or unauthorized use of DIT name and logo.

  2. We want to make it simple and easy for everyone who uses the DIT name or logo for community-oriented efforts that could result in some added exposure to DIT.

  3. We like to make it clear how dit-related businesses and projects can/cannot use the DIT name and logo.

  4. We want to restrict anyone who uses the DIT name and logo to unfairly profit from, trick or confuse people who are looking for official DIT resources.

Proper permission is required from DIT to use the DIT name and/or logo as part of any company name, domain, product, project or service.
Permission shall be granted to those users who use the DIT name and/or logo for the projects with the following conditions:

  1. One of the primary purposes of your project is discussion, development, advocacy and add further exposure for DIT.

  2. There is no commercial intent behind, or benefit from the use of DIT name and/or logo.

  3. The use of the DIT name and/or logo does not lend itself to causing confusion for users or the public.

  4. Neither we suggest nor we recommend that the approval, sponsorship or affiliation is given by DIT for your project, unless it is formally approved by DIT.

  5. You make sure that you are using the DIT logo on the official site that has been approved by DIT management.

  6. You ensure that you are using a graphic provided by DIT to promote the event or the fact that you are attending, speaking, volunteering, or sponsoring the event. The event can be seminar, workshop, conference, training etc.

If you agree with the aforementioned conditions, you will be granted with permission to use the DIT name and/or logo to promote your project/product/service in any manner you deem appropriate but subject to not use DIT as part of a domain name.

All other services or businesses, similar to what DIT is rendering to its users/clients, can use the DIT name and logo to refer to and explain their services.

Likewise, we allow you to use the DIT logo as part of a page that shows your products or services.
