Our goals in establishing these guidelines are pretty simple:

* The Sugar trademarks are a symbol of the quality and community support that people have come to associate with Sugar. To ensure that the Sugar trademarks continue to serve these functions, we need to keep some element of control over their use. Along these lines, we want to ensure that the use of our marks not likely to lead to confusion with other marks. By this we mean that people should be able to tell when something is from Sugar Labs. Also, use of our marks should not be in a disparaging manner because we prefer that our marks not be used to be rude about the Sugar technology, the Sugar Labs, or its Members.

If you want to use a Sugar Labs logo in a way not explicitly explained in these Guidelines, then ask us by sending an email to license@sugarlabs.org.
