# Can I use the Xibo name/logo?

This policy has been put in place to safeguard the reputation of the Xibo project.

The Xibo name and logo are symbols of the high quality software and support Xibo users have come to enjoy. We realise however that as individuals or companies build products and services around the Xibo system, they may wish to use the Xibo name and logo in that context.

The Xibo logo was created by Paul van Dun and is copyright Xibo Signage Ltd. The name “Xibo” is a registered trademark.

## Use on Websites

Permission is granted to use the Xibo name and logo to provide a link back to the official Xibo website. ([https://xibosignage.com](https://xibosignage.com/)).

## Use in the context of a derivative product or service based upon Xibo

Permission is granted to use the Xibo name and logo to describe the underlying technology your product or service uses. It must not be used in a manor designed to cause confusion or to imply that the product or service is in any way related to, part of, or supported by, Xibo.

An example of acceptable use would be to say that:

```auto
X Digital Signage Ltd use Xibo Open Source Digital Signage system
```

or to include a Xibo logo on your website so long as it’s clear that Xibo is the technology you’re using and nothing more. Any use of the logo as the primary branding of the website is unacceptable.

An example of use that would **not be** acceptable might be:

```auto
X Digital Signage Limited, Xibo Project Partners provide the Y signage system
```

or to use the Xibo in a company’s official or trading name.

## Use on merchandise

You may not use the Xibo logo on any retail merchandise without written permission from the copyright holder (with the exception of unmodified stable release versions of the Xibo software). For example it is not permissible to sell mugs, t-shirts etc bearing the Xibo logo or name without permission.

## Use in books or articles

Permission is granted to use the Xibo name and logo in the context of a book or article about the Xibo Digital Signage system.

## Domain Names

You may not register or use any domain name that incorporates the Xibo trademark, or any confusingly similar variation thereof, in connection with any goods or services that are identical or similar to those covered by our trademark.

## Failure to meet these criteria <a href="#failure_to_meet_these_criteria" id="failure_to_meet_these_criteria"></a>

Any failure to meet the guidelines will result in the individual or company involved infringing copyright and/or trademark.

## What to do if you are still uncertain <a href="#what_to_do_if_you_are_still_uncertain" id="what_to_do_if_you_are_still_uncertain"></a>

If you are uncertain as to whether the use you have in mind is acceptable, or we have not covered the use in this document, please feel free to get in touch via our [Contact Form](https://xibosignage.com/contact). You should assume that your use is unacceptable until such time that this document is updated in your favour or you receive written permission from the copyright holder.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.xibosignage.com/kb/readme/can-i-use-the-xibo-name-logo.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
