Logos, logotypes, distinguishing marks and trademarks, web pages, screen images or other distinguishing characteristics of Tecnocurve Srl (“Logos”) represent a valuable asset that Tecnocurve Srl actively protects. To use the Logos – respecting the provisions hereof – you must have express authorisation form Tecnocurve Srl (“Authorisation”). Authorisation can be obtained by sending a specific request (“Form”) containing the purpose for which the Logos are required. With the Authorisation, Tecnocurve Srl grants to the user, free of charge, the non-transferable and non-exclusive right to use the Logos solely and exclusively for the purpose and on the materials specified in the Form.

If there is an existing contract with Tecnocurve Srl which establishes the use of the Logos you do not need to carry out this authorisation procedure; this procedure is however necessary to request Authorisation for other uses not included in the existing contract. In exception to the above the Logos can be used without the prior written consent of Tecnocurve Srl only if on the Tecnocurve Srl website there is a clear and explicit declaration that the Logos can be used without authorisation (e.g. search fields).

In any case, the Logos must be used in compliance with the conditions listed below and in particular:

• only graphic elements approved by Tecnocurve Srl can be used;
• a declaration clearly stating that the Logos are property of Tecnocurve Srl must be included in the text;
• the Logos must be clearly distinguished from the surrounding text;

The following operations are forbidden:

• remove, distort or alter in any way and/or under any form even just one single element of the Logos, not in compliance with the criteria defined by Tecnocurve Srl;
• copy or imitate the trade dress of Tecnocurve Srl, including the graphic aspect of the web designs property of Tecnocurve Srl or the presentation of logos or colour combinations, typographic elements, graphic designs, product icons or images clearly associated with Tecnocurve Srl;
• use marks, logotypes, slogans or designs than can be confused with the Logos;
• register the Logos with second level dominion names;
• reproduce the Logos in a manner considered by Tecnocurve Srl, at its unquestionable judgement, as deceitful, improper, defamatory, illegal, slanderous, disparaging or despicable for Tecnocurve Srl;
• display the Logos on any digital, paper or other support in a prominent position or in any case in a position that may deceitfully lead to believe that there is a relationship or affiliation with Tecnocurve Srl, or a sponsorship or approval by Tecnocurve Srl; the display of the Logos in a position that may falsely lead to believe that the contents of the pages are created by Tecnocurve Srl;
• display the Logos on any website that contains or visualises contents which are for adults only;
• incorporate the Logos in names of products, services, marks, logotypes or companies.

The rights related to trademark property vary from country to country. Some countries apply severe penal and civil sanctions for the improper use of the registration symbol. Therefore the use of the registration symbol (®) is not recommended in countries in which the trademark is not registered.

Tecnocurve Srl reserves the exclusive right to withdraw or change, at its discretion, the Authorisation and to take legal action against any use which does not comply with the provisions hereof, which breaches any intellectual property right or which does not comply with the laws in force.
