OpenPanel Trademark Guidelines

Overview

Welcome to OpenPanel's Trademark Guidelines. These guidelines are designed to help you understand how to use and refer to the OpenPanel brand and trademarks properly. By following these guidelines, you contribute to maintaining the integrity of the OpenPanel brand.

Trademark Usage

OpenPanel Logo

The OpenPanel logo is a key element of our brand identity. To ensure consistency and visibility, please adhere to the following guidelines:

  • Do not modify or alter the OpenPanel logo.
  • Maintain proper spacing around the logo to ensure clarity and legibility.
  • Use the official OpenPanel logo assets provided on our official website.

OpenPanel Name

When referring to OpenPanel in text, please follow these guidelines:

  • Use the full, unaltered "OpenPanel" name when mentioning our product.
  • Capitalize the "O" in OpenPanel.
  • Avoid using OpenPanel in a way that could be misleading or imply endorsement.

Domain Names

To avoid confusion and maintain the clarity of the OpenPanel brand, please refrain from using domain names that may be misleading or suggest an official affiliation with OpenPanel.

Open Source Projects

If you are developing an open-source project related to OpenPanel, feel free to use and reference our trademarks as long as it is clear that your project is not officially endorsed or affiliated with OpenPanel.

Contact Us

If you have any questions or need further clarification on the use of OpenPanel trademarks, please contact us at [hello@openpanel.dev].

Acceptable Uses

You are permitted to use the OpenPanel name in the following situations, provided it is done truthfully and accurately:

  • To refer to OpenPanel and its products and services in news articles and other content without alteration.
  • To discuss OpenPanel and its products in a fair and honest manner that does not imply sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation with OpenPanel.
  • To refer to and/or link to the products and services hosted on Openpanel’s servers and website.
  • To indicate if your product, service, or solution integrates, is interoperable, or compatible with OpenPanel, as long as it does not create confusion about the origin of your offering.
  • You may use our word marks as part of a public subdomain solely for serving as the URL for your self-managed OpenPanel instance (e.g., openpanel.companyname.com).

Prohibited Uses

Unless you have explicit written permission from OpenPanel or your use falls under the acceptable uses mentioned above, the use of OpenPanel trademarks is strictly prohibited. Here are examples of prohibited uses that may be considered for permission upon request:

  • Use of OpenPanel trademarks in connection with a public website offering OpenPanel software for installation and use on a server (instead of directing users to the official OpenPanel site).
  • Use of OpenPanel trademarks in connection with versions of OpenPanel products made publicly available or offered in the cloud by a managed service provider, resale, or other commercial basis.
  • Use of OpenPanel trademarks in connection with bundling OpenPanel products with other software.

In these cases:

  • Adherence to the terms of the open-source license for OpenPanel software products and code is mandatory.
  • Removal of all OpenPanel logos is required, with the adoption of your own branding to clearly signify no affiliation with or endorsement by OpenPanel.
  • Avoidance of using any OpenPanel trademark in connection with the user-facing name, branding, or marketing materials of your project.
  • Usage of word marks, but not logos, in truthful statements describing the relationship between your software and OpenPanel is allowed. For instance, "this software is derived from the source code of the OpenPanel software," along with a disclaimer that your project is not officially associated with OpenPanel or its products.

OpenPanel reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to (i) terminate, revoke, modify, or change permission to use the trademarks at any time and; (ii) object to any use or misuse of the trademarks globally. Any changes to these guidelines are effective immediately upon posting, and your continued use of the trademarks following revised guidelines signifies your acceptance of such revisions.
