YPC TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES
Our company name and brands are among our most valuable assets. They represent the quality, integrity and goodwill of YELLOWPAGES.COM (YPC) services. As a result, it is very important to us that our name and brands be properly used by our business partners, licenses and others.
The trademark usage guidelines below set forth YPCs requirements for using or referring to our brands, trademarks, logos and slogans. YPC reserves the right to modify these guidelines as it deems necessary or appropriate, including by written agreement with or license to third parties.
1. | | These guidelines apply to the authorized use of all of the YPC trademarks, service marks and logos in connection with YPCs services, on websiters or in advertisements, brochures, customer communications, press releases, packaging, electronic communications and all other contexts. YPCs registered and unregistered trademarks, service marks, logos, tag lines and brand names are listed above which may be updated from time to time. |
|
2. | | Before you may use any of YPCs trademarks, you must obtain YPCs written approval, in its sole discretion, of the form, content and context of any intended use. Entering into a written trademark license agreement with YPC satisfies this requirement. Otherwise, all unauthorized use of YPCs marks in a manner that might create the impression that YPC in any way sponsors, is affiliated with, or is the source of your product or service is prohibited. |
|
| | You do not need to seek prior approval from YPC if you are merely referring to YPC descriptively in a manner that does not suggest sponsorship or affiliation. For example, neither of these statements by YPC customers would require prior approval: We advertise our store at YELLOWPAGES.COM or See our online listing at www.yellowpages.com. Nor would the statement We are business partners with YellowPages.com LLC. If you have any doubt whether a trademark use is permissible, please ask us. |
|
3. | | Please keep in mind the following general rules: |
| | Spell our trademarks correctly and do not abbreviate them. |
|
| | Use capitalization consistently. |
Page 2 EXHIBIT D INTELIUS CONTENT DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
| | Use only those depictions of our trademarks that we have authorized. |
|
| | Use a proper trademark notice at least once per page, either the first time the YPC trademark appears on that page, or where the YPC trademark appears most prominently. Use ® for registered trademarks and for unregistered trademarks. Please consult the attached Trademark List to see which marks are registered and which are unregistered. If you have any questions about which marks are registered or unregistered, please ask us. |
|
| | Always give YPC attribution as the trademark owner any time our trademarks are used, e.g., YELLOWPAGES.COM is a trademark of YellowPages.com LLC. |
|
| | If you have any questions about proper trademark usage, please ask us. |
4. | | You may not incorporate any YPC trademarks into any domain names that you register or use, except upon prior written approval from YPC. |
|
5. | | You may not purchase any online advertising keyed to the trademarks licensed to you under the original terms of this Agreement (i.e., YELLOWPAGES.COM and ANYWHO). |
|
6. | | Please notify YPC immediately of any improper, confusing or unauthorized use of YPCs trademarks by any third party. |
|
7. | | You should not take any action which leads a third party to believe YPCs trademarks are owned by you, or which might adversely impact YPCs reputation. You are expected to use YPCs trademarks at all times in a manner consistent with all applicable laws, including trademark laws. |
|
8. | | You may not use the YPC logo or the AnyWho logo without YPCs advance written permission. When you use the YPC logo, you must adhere to the following specifications: |
| (a) | | The Logo consists of the brand design YELLOWPAGES.COM. The Logo should be reproduced in the following colors: black text on yellow (PMS 123) background or white background. All elements of the Logo must be used, and no portion of the logo may be omitted, altered or covered by other material. The logotype is in the font ITC CONDUIT BOLD. Downloadable samples will be emailed upon request. |
|
| (b) | | Clear Space: To maintain the characteristic of the Logo, it must be surrounded by clear space. This space should be free of any type or graphic of any kind. The amount of clear space around the Logo on all sides should be equal to the height of the Y in the logotype. |
|
| (c) | | Size Requirements: The Logo should never be reproduced smaller than 1.5 inches long (3.8cm) in print as measured for complete length of the logo. The Logo is measured from the front of the Y to the end of the TM. For on-screen usage, the minimum size of the Logo is 108x36 pixels. |
Page 3 EXHIBIT D INTELIUS CONTENT DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
| (d) | | Usage on Colored/Textured Backgrounds. When placing the YPC Logo on a solid background other than black or white, the background color must not visually interfere with the colors of the log. Preferred usage is reproduction Black type on Yellow (PMS 124) background or White background. Also allowable reveres out black background with reverse out white. Any other background colors would be an exception and should be approved through YellowPages.com LLC. However, the YPC logotype can be black or white (please refer to downloadable files). When placing the logo on any background, the overall coloration of the background must be light enough so that the logo can be seen clearly. |
YPC reserves the right to require usage specifications and limitations with respect to the AnyWho trademark or logo and the trademark and logo of any additional or successor entity covered by this Agreement from time to time.
In sum, you may use YPC trademarks to refer to YPC services provided you follow these guidelines. You may not mislead consumers as to any YPC sponsorship of, affiliation with or endorsement of your company or your products or services. We look forward to working with you to ensure proper usage of our companys trademarks.
