Trademarks

Third Party Usage Guidelines for Bizdata Trademarks

Bizdata’s trademarks are valuable assets that Bizdata needs to protect. We ask that you help us by properly using and crediting Bizdata trademarks in accordance with these guidelines. For information about proper use of Bizdata logos, logotypes, signatures, and design marks, please review the Third-Party Usage Guidelines for Bizdata Logos.

Permissible Use

You may generally use Bizdata trademarks to refer to the associated Bizdata products or services. For instance, an authorised partner can highlight in its advertisements that it is using Bizdata Products and services for their business. Similarly, a Bizdata Customer may issue a press release or market that it is using bizdata products and services.

Relationship of Products or Services

You may indicate the relationship of your products or services to Bizdata products or services by using accurate, descriptive tag lines such as “for Goldfinch Analytics,” and “works with eZintegrations,” in connection with your product or service name. Within text or body copy, such tag lines may appear in the same type as your product or service name. Logo on cover as well.

On advertising and other collateral where your product or service name is displayed apart from body copy, make sure that the tag line appears in significantly smaller type than your name. You should also distinguish the tag line from your mark by using a different font or colour. However, Bizdata or the tag line should never appear in the Bizdata red colour. This is important to avert any implication that your product or service is produced or endorsed by Bizdata.

Prohibited Use

You may not use Bizdata trademarks in a manner which could cause confusion as to Bizdata sponsorship, affiliation or endorsement. Take particular care not to use Bizdata marks as set out below.

Company, Product or Service Names

Do not use Bizdata trademarks or potentially confusing variations as all or part of your company, product or service names. If you wish to note the relationship of your products or services to Bizdata products or services, please use an appropriate tag line as detailed above.

For more information regarding use of Bizdata logos, please review the Third-Party Usage Guidelines for Bizdata Logos.

Domain Names

Do not use Bizdata trademarks or potentially confusing variations in your Internet domain name. This helps prevent Internet users from being confused as to whether you or Bizdata is the source of the Web site.

Correct Use

Proper use of Bizdata trademarks reinforces their role as brands for our products and services and helps prevent them from becoming generic names that can be used by anyone. Examples of former trademarks that became generic terms are “aspirin,” “cellophane,” and “escalator.” By adhering to the following rules, you help protect Bizdata’s investment in its trademarks.

Use a Generic Term

Use a generic term in association with each Bizdata trademark the first time the mark appears in text, and as often as possible after that. You need not include generic names in headlines and documentation titles. For example, “Goldfinch Analytics” and “eZintegrations”

Avoid Variations

Do not vary Bizdata trademarks by changing their spelling or abbreviating them. For example, “eZintegrations” not “ezintegrations”.

Trademark Symbols and Credit Lines

Use of Bizdata trademark symbols and credit lines helps generate awareness in public about our trademark. It also helps them from becoming generic terms. Having credit lines also helps clarify that they belong to Bizdata. Use of symbols (™ or ®) to attribute ownership of Bizdata trademarks to Bizdata and the credit lines as detailed below would be appreciated.

Trademark Symbols

Use the ® symbol with the most prominent appearance of the “Bizdata” mark on products, packaging, manuals, advertisements, promotional materials and Web pages (for example, in the headline of an advertisement), and the first use of the mark in text or body copy. This includes situations where “Bizdata” is a part of a product or service name (for example, Bizdata® Partner Network). You do not need to use trademark symbols with other Bizdata trademarks.

“Bizdata” receives a trademark symbol in the headline because this is the most prominent appearance, and when it appears as part of the “Bizdata Partner Network” name because this is the first appearance in text. While there is no trademark symbol after “Bizdata” when it appears in front of the term “products” and “offerings” since we already used a symbol the first time that the term “Bizdata” appeared in body copy. It is always acceptable to continue using the ® after “Bizdata” throughout the document.

Credit Line

All products, packaging, manuals, advertisements, promotional materials and Web pages bearing Bizdata trademarks should include the following trademark credit line.

“Goldfinch Analytics is registered trademarks of Bizdata and/or its affiliates. Other names may be trademarks of their respective owners.”

“eZintegrations is registered trademarks of Bizdata and/or its affiliates. Other names may be trademarks of their respective owners.”

“PLM Axis is registered trademarks of Bizdata and/or its affiliates. Other names may be trademarks of their respective owners.”

The credit line may appear anywhere on the collateral, but typically is displayed on a copyright page, the back of a package or at the end of a document or web page.

“Bizdata” As a Trade Name

Trade names are the actual business names of companies. Trademarks and trade names are not the same, even though many companies use their trade names as trademarks. If you are using “Bizdata” as a substitute for Bizdata Inc, you are using it as a trade name. Because they are nouns, trade names can be used in the possessive and do not require a generic term or a trademark symbol. Thus, you should not use a ® after “Bizdata” when it appears as part of the full corporate name or as a trade name.

Examples:

Corporate Name: Goldfinch Analytics is developed by Bizdata Inc.
Trade Name: eZintegrations is developed by Bizdata.
Trade Name: Bizdata’s latest Product offerings are outstanding.
Trademark: Bizdata® has analytics solution which is class leading.
