MARN Logo Usage Policy

The logos are the property of the Missing Animal Response Network (MARN), but may be used by MARN members in good standing in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth below. Use of one or more of the logos shall constitute consideration for, agreement to and acceptance of the following terms and condition of this license by the user:

  1. The logos are the sole and exclusive property of MARN. Use of the MARN logos must be requested in writing to Director Kat Albrecht by sending an email to info@katalbrecht.com. The request should include your name, the name of your company if different, the intended use (business cards, website, etc.) The logos may not be copied directly from the web page, Facebook groups or pages, or any other source. The logos may be used only by MARN members in good standing if and only if such use is approved and made pursuant to the terms and conditions of this limited revocable license. Any failure by a user to comply with the terms and conditions contained herein may result in the immediate revocation of this license, in addition to any other sanctions imposed by MARN. The interpretation and enforcement (or lack thereof) of these terms and conditions, and compliance therewith, shall be made by MARN in its sole discretion.

  2. The logos are made available to MARN members in good standing in electronic format. The logos may not be revised or altered in any way and must be displayed in the same form as produced by MARN.

    • The logos may be printed in black and white or color. The colors on the logos (as attached) cannot be altered.
    • MARN Members who have completed an 8 or 10-week field course may advertise lost pet recovery services, but may NOT list the services of a search animal.
    • At no time can the MARN logo be used by members to print merchandise like shirts, sweatshirts, vests, hats, bags, mugs or other products. These can and will be printed and sold exclusively through MARN.
    • Only MARN Members who have completed the 10-week MAR Field course and have trained a K9 declared “Mission Ready” by the Director of MARN or her designee may list a search animal.

  3. Prior to use, the draft of the final product (business card, webpage, Facebook page, or other product) must also be submitted for approval and the product may not be altered other than a change in your name or contact information without Approval.

  4. The logos may be used in a professional manner on the user’s business cards, stationery, literature, advertisements, website, or in any other comparable manner to signify the user’s membership in MARN. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the logos may not be used in any manner that, in the sole discretion of MARN: discredits MARN or tarnishes its reputation and goodwill; is false or misleading; violates the rights of others; violates any law, regulation or other public policy; or mischaracterizes the relationship between MARN and the user, including by not limited to any use of the logos that might be reasonably construed as an endorsement, approval, sponsorship or certification by MARN of the user, the user’s business or organization, or the user’s products or services, or that might be reasonably construed as support or encouragement to purchase or utilize the user’s products or services.

  5. Use of the logos shall create no rights for users in or to the logos or their use beyond the terms and conditions of this limited revocable license. The logos shall remain at all times the sole and exclusive intellectual property of MARN. MARN shall have the right, from time to time, to request samples of use of the logos from which it may determine compliance with these terms and conditions. Without further notice, MARN reserves the right to prohibit use of the logos if it determines, in its sole discretion, that a user’s logo usage, whether willful or negligent, is not in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this license, otherwise could discredit MARN or tarnish its reputation and goodwill, or the user is not a MARN member in good standing.

  6. Any questions concerning the use of the logos or the terms and conditions of this license should be directed to the MARN Director or Membership Chair.
