Publicity & brand use
Spread the word.
Your voice. Our name and artwork, used with care.
Help people discover Purpose Source. You are welcome to mention our name, link to our website and official social profiles, and use our official logos and badges on your website, in repository READMEs, presentations, announcements and social posts.
You may write in your own words, in any language. Publicity is optional and needs no prior approval. The Association does not undertake to monitor purchasers’ communications. These rules apply to use of our official artwork and identity.
- Use the official artwork. Use the supplied logo files, keep their proportions and legibility, and choose a version suited to the background. Resizing is welcome; do not distort, redraw or combine the artwork into a different mark.
- Give people a useful link. Link a logo to our website or an official social profile where the format allows. An official coverage badge should link to the verification record and show the current coverage status without alteration.
- Show the relationship accurately. Keep your identity distinct from ours. Do not use our marks to impersonate the Association or imply an endorsement, partnership or authority to speak for us that has not been agreed.
- Treat the identity with care. Do not use our marks in deceptive, unlawful, hateful or abusive material, or manipulate them in a way reasonably likely to damage the Association’s reputation. This brand permission does not limit independent reporting, opinions or lawful criticism.
Permission is non-exclusive and free of charge. We may ask for a particular use of our artwork to be corrected or stopped if it breaches these rules. This does not create a duty to monitor your publicity or a requirement to submit it for review.
This permission covers the Association’s own marks. Purchasers remain responsible for their own statements and for any rights needed to use other organisations’ material. Nothing here authorises another organisation’s logo or implies its endorsement.
