Trademark Guidelines
General Information
The name Pixelfind is synonymous with high-quality software and services. Pixelfind Marks, logotypes, trade dress, web pages, screen shots, or other elements of Pixelfind product or service packaging or marketing and Web sites or other distinctive features ("Branding") are extremely valuable because they represent the standards of excellence and consistent quality associated with Pixelfind. As a result, we require that you have Pixelfind's explicit written permission before using any Pixelfind Branding. Branding can be used only pursuant to these Guidelines and for the specific purposes for which Pixelfind has given permission. If you are subject to an agreement with Pixelfind that allows use of the Branding, you may do so in accordance with these Guidelines and such agreement. Otherwise, you may not use the Branding without advance written permission from Pixelfind legal counsel. Pixelfind field offices or other personnel do not have this authority. To initiate consideration of your request for permission, please submit your request to: contact@pixelfind.net.
Proper use of Pixelfind Branding is important. Your use must not mislead consumers as to any Pixelfind sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of your company, or of your products or services. Do not use any Pixelfind Branding in such a manner that it appears Pixelfind is legally associated with your company.
Guidelines For Proper Notice and Trademarks
In all cases, these Guidelines For Proper Notice must be followed:
* Appropriate trademark symbols must be utilized in accordance with the list of current Pixelfind trademarks.

* To best serve its purpose, the trademark notice should always accompany the trademark's first and/or most prominent appearance in a document, program, packaging, etc. You need not use the notice each time the mark appears thereafter. Where portions of a document may be accessed out of sequence (e.g., a Web site), use the notice where the mark first appears in each portion.
