The Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate, Board of Regents and LuxuryRealEstate.com logos (the "logo") are trademarks and/or federally registered marks of Who's Who in Luxury Real Estate and LuxuryRealEstate.com (the "company") and are protected from unauthorized use.
As a general rule, only members in good standing with the company are entitled to use the logos under the guidelines that follow. Third parties that are not affiliated members of the company may not use any of the corporate logos of the company without the express written consent of the company.
The following guidelines must be followed for all use of the logos:
Use The Correct Symbol
When referencing company trademarks and registered trademarks, always include the proper notation after the name and logo. (® for Registered Trademarks and ™ for Trademarks) Failure to do so dilutes our trademark protection. In text it is only necessary to annotate the first instance of the trademark in a given document or piece. After the first instance you may drop the ® or ™ after the word. When using logos, always include the ® or ™ in every instance.
Do Not Alter Logos
When using a company logo, never modify the design, add or delete any elements or words, change any colors or proportions, or otherwise distort its perspective or appearance. Logos may be reduced or enlarged in size to fit the space available, however proportions within the logos must remain intact.
Third Party Trademarks
Do not combine the company logos with third party trademarks. Third party names and logos cannot be used in conjunction with the company's logos. Company logos may not be used as part of the product name for any third party logo without the express consent of the company.
Reservation of Rights
Company is the owner of all right, title, and interest in the company brand and logos. No person or entity may reproduce or use (or authorize the reproduction or use of) the company brands and logos in any manner other than expressly authorized by the company. Unauthorized use of company brands and logos is strictly prohibited.
Company may, at its sole discretion, modify the company brands and logos at any time. Please refer to this logo guidelines document periodically to ensure your compliance. In order to assure compliance and quality of control, company may request that you provide samples of any marketing, advertising, or other material that includes the company brands and logos.
Trademarks & Registered Trademarks
Company reserves the right in its sole discretion to terminate or modify permission to display the logos, and may request that members and/or third parties modify or delete any use of the logos that, in the company's sole judgment, does not comply with these guidelines, or might otherwise impair the company's rights in the logos. Company further reserves the right to object to the unfair uses or misuses of its trademarks or other violations of applicable law.
