The eSelling Academy Trademarks Usage Guidelines (these “Guidelines”) outline how we permit the use of eSelling Academy’s trademarks, brandnames, tradenames, service marks, service names, domain names and logos (collectively, “eSelling Academy Trademarks”).
We have developed these Guidelines with the following goals in mind: We wish to make it easy for anyone to use the eSelling Academy Trademarks for Community-Oriented Efforts in a manner that helps to spread and improve eSelling Academy.
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 eSelling Academy or Software.
If you wish to use the eSelling Academy 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 eSelling Academy Trademarks.
We wish to prevent anyone from using the eSelling Academy Trademarks in an unfair profit form and to trick or confuse people who are looking for resources officially released by eSelling Academy.<

The eSelling Academy Trademarks shall not be displayed in a manner that implies that the project is affiliated with eSelling Academy. This doesn’t just mean that to comply with these Guidelines; you can write, “we are not affiliated with eSelling Academy” in your footer. Instead, you must refrain altogether from using misleading business practices such as using a domain name comprising solely of the word “eSelling Academy” or just using our logo as your website’s logo.
In plain English: Don’t make people think you’re affiliated with eSelling Academy.
Your project must have discernible differences from eSelling Academy’s Software. Meaning, it is not a redistribution of the Software.
