7 | A key part of the business model that allows us to produce and |
8 | distribute Moodle as completely Free open source software is that | |
9 | we restrict the commercial use of the Moodle trademark to those | |
4e0ebe0a | 10 | who have contracted to support Moodle development (Moodle Partners). |
11 | ||
6f5e0852 PS |
12 | If you are intending to use the name (and/or logo) to advertise |
13 | generic Moodle™ services (eg Moodle Hosting, Moodle Support, | |
14 | Moodle Certification, Moodle Training, Moodle Consulting, | |
15 | Moodle Customisation, Moodle Courseware Development, Moodle | |
16 | Theme design, Moodle Integrations, Moodle Installations, etc) | |
17 | or as the name of a software package, then you must seek | |
18 | direct permission in writing from the Moodle Trust via the | |
19 | moodle.com helpdesk, in accordance with normal trademark | |
4e0ebe0a | 20 | restrictions. |
21 | ||
6f5e0852 PS |
22 | There are no restrictions on how you use the name in other |
23 | contexts (for example, if you use Moodle just to provide | |
24 | courses then you can use the name freely to refer to it.) | |

26 | If you aren't sure of a particular case, please ask us via |
27 | http://moodle.com/helpdesk: we'll be happy to either provide | |
28 | you with official permission in writing or help you fix | |
29 | your wording. | |
