| </P> |
| </br> |
| |
| <p>Effective as of May 19, 2021</p> |
| |
| <h2 id="purpose">Purpose:</h2> |
| <p> |
| This Policy (the “<strong>Policy</strong>”) defines the allowable use of names, marks and logos and related rights |
| (referred to herein collectively as "<strong>Trademarks</strong>") owned by Eclipse.org Foundation, Inc. ("<strong>Eclipse</strong>") |
| (such Trademarks, the “<strong>Eclipse Trademarks</strong>”). The Policy is intended to protect the goodwill |
| associated with Eclipse Trademarks and to promote and improve the consistency of use of Eclipse |
| Trademarks across all elements of the Eclipse Group community and otherwise. This is important, |
| among other reasons, to demonstrate that Eclipse Group open source projects (“Eclipse Projects”) are |
| part of a common community of developers, adopters and users, all associated with the highest levels |
| of quality. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Eclipse owns all Trademarks that are related to the business of the Eclipse Group, including the |
| Trademarks related to Eclipse Projects (“<strong>Eclipse Project Trademarks</strong>”) and working groups and their |
| specifications, if any (“<strong>Eclipse WG Trademarks</strong>”). A list of Eclipse Trademarks and any trademark |
| usage guidelines implemented by Eclipse Foundation Working Groups (each, a “<strong>WG</strong>”) (e.g., Jakarta |
| EE, Sparkplug, etc.) which should be read to supplement this Policy (with conflicts governed by this |
| Policy) can be found at <a href="/projects/tools/trademarks.php">https://www.eclipse.org/projects/tools/trademarks.php</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The Eclipse Trademarks are symbols of the quality and community support that people have come to |
| associate with the Eclipse Group. To ensure that the Eclipse Trademarks continue to serve these |
| functions, we need to keep control over their use. People should be able to tell when something is |
| from Eclipse or one of the Eclipse Projects or working groups. Also, Eclipse Trademarks should not be |
| used in a way which tarnishes the reputation or image of Eclipse technology, Eclipse, the Eclipse |
| Group, its projects, its working groups, or its Members. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| As discussed in this Policy, there are also specific requirements applicable to Eclipse Trademarks that |
| are logos (“<strong>Eclipse Logos</strong>”), Eclipse Foundation “branded” Trademarks (some of which are Eclipse |
| Logos) (“<strong>Eclipse Foundation Trademarks</strong>”), Eclipse Project Trademarks (some of which are Eclipse |
| Logos), and Eclipse WG Trademarks (some of which are Eclipse Logos). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| As detailed below and except as provided herein, the use of any name, mark, or logo which may |
| create confusion with, or falsely implies an endorsement, affiliation or relationship with Eclipse or the |
| Eclipse Group, or is otherwise in violation of Eclipse’s rights or applicable law is a violation of this |
| Policy. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| If you have any questions regarding this Policy, wish to report an infringement or improper use of |
| Eclipse Trademarks, or wish to use an Eclipse Trademark in a way not explicitly provided for in this |
| Policy, then contact us by sending an email to <a href="mailto:license@eclipse.org"><strong>license@eclipse.org</strong></a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| We recognize that there may be certain circumstances where a “fair use” of an Eclipse Trademark |
| may deviate from this Policy. Nothing in this Policy should be interpreted to interfere with the right to |
| make such fair uses of Eclipse Trademarks as provided for under applicable law and all of the |
| guidance in this Policy is subject to applicable law. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2 id="general-usage-of-eclipse-logos">General Usage of Eclipse Logos</h2> |
| <ol> |
| <li>These requirements apply generally to the use of Eclipse Logos.</li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| Eclipse-owned logos and related production specifications are available |
| at <a href="/artwork">https://www.eclipse.org/artwork/</a>. The use of Eclipse-owned logos should follow these |
| specifications and applicable guidelines. Eclipse logos include logos for 'Eclipse', 'Eclipse |
| Foundation', 'EclipseCon', 'Eclipse Summit', 'Eclipse Foundation Member', 'Built on Eclipse', |
| 'Eclipse Ready', 'Jakarta', 'Jakarta EE and any Eclipse Project Trademarks and Eclipse WG |
| Trademarks which are logos. Eclipse Logos cannot be modified in any way without the |
| advanced written permission (email is permissible) of Eclipse. Any Eclipse Project or working |
| group that wishes to seek such permission may do so by sending an email to |
| license@eclipse.org. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| To ensure the consistency of our corporate brand identity, please see our |
| <a href="/legal/documents/eclipse_foundation_branding_guidelines.pdf">Brand Guidelines Handbook</a>. |
| This style guide outlines usage standards to ensure that the “Eclipse Foundation” |
| logo is instantly and consistently recognizable however and wherever it is used by Foundation |
| members and the community. |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h2 id="proper-usage-of-eclipse-foundation-trademarks">Proper Usage of Eclipse Foundation Trademarks</h2> |
| <p> |
| These requirements apply to the use of any Eclipse Foundation Trademarks such as the Eclipse |
| Foundation name and logo and the Eclipse Foundation Member logo. Use of the Eclipse Foundation |
| Trademarks are restricted to identifying the Eclipse Foundation and its members. 'Eclipse' must |
| always be capitalized, except when used as part of an Eclipse logo. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Unless otherwise agreed to in advance in writing (which may be in email form) by Eclipse, the |
| following restrictions apply to the use of Eclipse Foundation Trademarks: |
| </p> |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| All of the guidance set out in Section 2 regarding Eclipse Logos apply to Eclipse Foundation |
| Trademarks that are logos. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| You may not incorporate an Eclipse Foundation Trademark into the name of your company or |
| software product or service name. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| You may not include an Eclipse Foundation Trademark in the name of a publication, |
| certification program, domain name or book. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| Only Eclipse Projects are authorized to develop or maintain software packages that use |
| Eclipse Foundation namespaces such as 'org.eclipse' in their namespace. An important use of |
| an Eclipse Trademark is the 'org.eclipse' string used on all namespaces for Eclipse Projects. |
| This naming convention is used to identify code that has been developed as part of an Eclipse |
| Project. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| The 'Eclipse Foundation Member' Trademark is meant to identify those organizations and |
| individuals that are members of the Eclipse Group. Only current members of the Eclipse |
| Group are authorized to use this Eclipse Trademark. |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h2 id="proper-usage-of-eclipse-project-trademarks">Proper Usage of Eclipse Project Trademarks</h2> |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| All of the guidance set out in Section 2 regarding Eclipse Logos apply to Eclipse Project |
| Trademarks that are logos. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| The Eclipse Foundation claims the names and logos of all Eclipse Projects as trademarks. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| While every project manages its own development within the broader |
| <a href="/projects/dev_process/development_process.php">Eclipse Development Process</a>, |
| Eclipse holds the Eclipse Project Trademarks for the benefit of the Eclipse |
| community as a whole. The Eclipse Project Naming Policy allows for Eclipse Projects to have |
| a descriptive name, an optional nickname and an acronym. These names (e.g. Theia), and |
| acronyms (e.g. CDT), can become effective identifiers of certain technologies, and therefore it |
| is important to establish maintain proper usage of such identifies. All identifiers used by |
| Eclipse Projects (including project names, nicknames, logos, and acronyms) are the |
| intellectual property of the Eclipse Foundation, and shall constitute Eclipse Trademarks and |
| must be treated as such. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| For clarity, projects are not required to include 'Eclipse' or use the Eclipse logo in their project |
| logos. (Please see proper notice and attribution below.) |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| All Eclipse Projects must be identified as being Eclipse projects. Therefore, when referencing |
| an Eclipse Project, we ask that both the first and the most prominent reference to the project |
| on each page is identified as "Eclipse [project name]" (e.g., Eclipse Graphical Modeling |
| Framework (GMF) or in the case of a project name that already includes Eclipse, Eclipse |
| Communication Framework (ECF)). Subsequent references may drop the Eclipse identifier. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| You may not incorporate the name of an Eclipse Project Trademark into the name of your |
| company or software product name. If you have a software product that works with an Eclipse |
| Project, you may only use the following phrases: '<product name> for <Eclipse project |
| name>' or '<product name>, <Eclipse project name> Edition'. |
| </li> |
| </br> |
| <li> |
| You are required to request permission to include an Eclipse Project Trademark in the name |
| of a publication, certification program, domain name or book. At a minimum, it will be required |
| that a) the appropriate ™ or ® symbol is associated with the Eclipse Project Trademark and |
| appropriate attribution as discussed below, b) the Eclipse Project name is not concatenated |
| with another word, e.g. TheiaPortal, and c) the usage does not imply or infer that the |
| publication, domain name or book is supported or authorized by Eclipse, the Eclipse Group, or |
| any Eclipse Project. If you wish to seek such permission, you may do so by sending an email, |
| prior to any use of an Eclipse Project Trademark, to |
| <a href="mailto:license@eclipse.org">license@eclipse.org</a>, together with a |
| presentation of the projected use of the Eclipse Project Trademark. |
| </li> |
| </ol> |
| |
| <h2 id="proper-usage-of-eclipse-wg-trademarks">Proper Usage of Eclipse WG Trademarks</h2> |
| <p> |
| All of the guidance set out in Section 2 regarding Eclipse Logos apply to Eclipse WG Trademarks that |
| are logos. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The Eclipse Foundation claims the names and logos of all Eclipse Foundation working groups as |
| trademarks. Some Eclipse Foundation working groups produce specifications. The Eclipse Foundation |
| claims the names and logos of each specification as trademarks. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The identifiers of Eclipse WGs are Eclipse WG Trademarks and the intellectual property of Eclipse |
| and must be identified as such in all uses. (Please see proper notice and attribution below.) The use of |
| Eclipse WG Trademarks is restricted to identifying the applicable WG or their deliverables, which may |
| include specifications, as applicable. No other uses of Eclipse WG Trademarks are permitted unless |
| authorized in advance in writing by Eclipse, or in adherence with any supplemental trademark usage |
| guidelines made available at <a href="/projects/tools/trademarks.php"> |
| https://www.eclipse.org/projects/tools/trademarks.php</a>. Any organization |
| wishing to seek such authorization may do so by sending an email to <a href="mailto:license@eclipse.org"> |
| license@eclipse.org</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Each WG may, at its discretion, develop guidelines for use of the Eclipse WG Trademarks by third |
| parties, provided such guidelines are consistent with this Policy. These WG-specific guidelines will be |
| made available at <a href="/projects/tools/trademarks.php">https://www.eclipse.org/projects/tools/trademarks.php</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| One is not permitted to create any trademarks which may create confusion with an Eclipse WG |
| Trademark or suggest endorsement, association or affiliation with a WG or Eclipse Trademark without |
| prior written approval of Eclipse, which, in the event of a request, will consult with the Steering |
| Committee of the relevant Working Group. Any organization wishing to seek permission to create such |
| a Trademark may do so by sending an email to <a href="mailto:license@eclipse.org">license@eclipse.org</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Use of any namespaces created by a WG including but not limited to ‘jakarta’, 'org.locationtech' or |
| 'org.polarsys' is not permitted by this Policy unless authorized in advance in writing by Eclipse. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h2 id='proper-notice-and-attribution'>Proper Notice and Attribution</h2> |
| <P> |
| The appropriate trademark symbol (i.e. ™ or ®) must appear at both the first and most prominent use |
| of Eclipse Trademarks, and with all occurrences of the Eclipse Trademarks. |
| </P> |
| <p> |
| When you use an Eclipse Trademark you must include a statement attributing the Trademark to the |
| Eclipse Foundation, Inc., by the use of the following sentence:"'[e.g. Eclipse', 'Built on Eclipse' and |
| 'Eclipse Ready', CDT, Theia] are trademarks of Eclipse Foundation, Inc." |
