Trademark Guidelines

Last Updated: January 2021

These Elementor Trademarks Usage Guidelines (these “Guidelines”) outline how we permit the use of Elementor’s trademarks, brandnames, tradenames, service marks, service names, domain names and logos (collectively, “Elementor Trademarks”).
We have developed these Guidelines with the following goals in mind: We wish to make it easy for anyone to use the Elementor Trademarks for Community-Oriented Efforts in a manner that helps to spread and improve Elementor.

For the sake of these guidelines, “Community-Oriented Effort”means a non-profit project or meetup, which is made to encourage the use of the Elementor or Software.

If you wish to use the Elementor name in a for-profit project, please contact us as specified below.

We wish to make it clear how Community Oriented Efforts can, or cannot, use the Elementor Trademarks.
We wish to prevent anyone from using the Elementor Trademarks in an unfair profit form and to trick or confuse people who are looking for resources officially released by Elementor.

You acknowledge and agree that we are the sole and exclusive owners of the Elementor Trademarks, and that we retain all intellectual property rights in and to the Elementor Trademarks and goodwill associated with Elementor Trademarks and any goodwill generated by your use of any Elementor Trademarks will inure to our exclusive benefit.

You shall at no time contest, challenge, encourage or aid third-parties in contesting the validity or ownership of any Elementor Trademarks or take any action in derogation of our rights therein, including, without limitation, applying to register any trademark, tradename or other designation that is confusingly similar in any way to the Elementor Trademarks.

Our License

IN PLAIN ENGLISH
If you have a community project, then it’s ok to use Elementor’s name as long as there is no suggestion that the project is affiliated with Elementor.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereunder, we grant to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable license to use and display Elementor Trademarks, solely in accordance with these Guidelines and other written instructions provided by us from time to time, and solely as a part of a Community Oriented Effort.

The Elementor Trademarks shall not be displayed in a manner that implies that the project is affiliated with Elementor. This doesn’t just mean that to comply with these Guidelines; you can write, “we are not affiliated with Elementor” in your footer. Instead, you must refrain altogether from using misleading business practices such as using a domain name comprising solely of the word “Elementor” or just using our logo as your website’s logo.

Restrictions

IN PLAIN ENGLISH
Don’t make people think you’re affiliated with Elementor.

Your project must have discernible differences from Elementor’s Software. Meaning, it is not a redistribution of the Software.
Your use of the Elementor Trademarks is not displayed in a manner that implies that your project, products and/or services are endorsed or sponsored by Elementor.

For example, organizing an “Elementor Support Forum” might be confusing, and therefore we request that you state that your website is a “Support Forum For Elementor.”

Using the Elementor Trademarks’ colors as a part of your website’s branding is ok, but you shall not do so if this misleads people to think that the website is a formal Elementor site.
Any deceptive practices, such as using domain names that are meant to mislead people to think that they are using an official Elementor website, are prohibited.

Design

Specifically, you may not change the color proportion, or font of any of Elementor Trademarks, or make any additions to or remove any elements from Elementor Trademarks.

Elementor Trademarks shall not be placed on any background that interferes with the readability or display of that Elementor Trademarks.
Elementor Trademarks may not be displayed or used in any manner together with or in the context of any content which is unlawful, defamatory, libelous, harassing, offensive, indecent, pornographic, abusive, discriminatory, fraudulent, threatening or vulgar; or which harms or may harm the goodwill of Elementor (in Elementor’s reasonable discretion).
