Green Dollar Coin Trademarks

The trademarks Green Dollar Coin, GDC, and the Green Dollar Coin Logo (the “Green Dollar Coin Logo” and, collectively, the “Green Dollar Coin Trademarks”), are valuable intellectual property assets of Green Dollar Coin Community Company and its subsidiaries, affiliates, and associates (collectively, “GDC”). To preserve and protect our Trademarks and to prevent unauthorized exploitations by bad actors to confuse and scam Green Dollar Coin community members, it is essential that they are used properly. Follow these Guidelines for using Green Dollar Coin’s Trademarks properly in all apps, communications, documents, and electronic messages.

These Guidelines apply to any third parties who may be licensed to use Green Dollar Coin Trademarks, including but not limited to Green Dollar Coin community members, developers, partners, and licensees. If you are a Licensee of a Green Dollar Coin Trademark or Logo pursuant to a written agreement, your license agreement may have particular usage guidelines different from or in addition to those provided here.

You may reference Green Dollar Coin's products and services using the Green Dollar Coin Trademarks, so long as such references are: (1) truthful, fair, and not misleading, and (2) comply with these Guidelines, which may be modified from time to time by Green Dollar Coin in its sole discretion. The Green Dollar Coin Trademarks should never be used in a way that could cause anyone wrongly to believe that your products or services are offered, endorsed, or sponsored by Green Dollar Coin or any of its subsidiaries, associates, and affiliates unless your use is specifically licensed by Green Dollar Coin.

Green Dollar Coin reserves the right to terminate at its discretion any party’s use of a Green Dollar Coin Trademark that does not comply with these Guidelines.

BASIC GUIDELINES

When you use any of our Trademarks, you must do so in a manner that will not cause confusion. For example, your use of any of our Trademarks must not suggest, either directly or through implication, that your product or website is a Green Dollar Coin product or website, or that your product or website is sponsored or endorsed by Green Dollar Coin.

Similarly, you may not use a Trademark that is too close to ours, such as an obvious variation of one of our marks.

You may use our word marks to truthfully refer to the GDC™, following the guidelines below.

General Guidelines

Trademark Notices

Properly designate the status of GDC’s Trademarks by using the correct trademark symbol (® or ™) reflecting Green Dollar Coin’s ownership of particular marks as set forth below, and as this may be amended from time to time.

GDC™
Green Dollar Coin™

Use trademark notice the first or most prominent time you use a Green Dollar Coin Trademark.

Include attribution of Green Dollar Coin’s ownership of the Trademark in the following format: “_______ is a trademark of Green Dollar Coin Community Company.”

Trademarks Are Singular Adjectives, Not Verbs And Should Not Be Made Possessive

Use the Green Dollar Coin Trademarks only as adjectives followed by the appropriate generic product or service noun describing the relevant product or service (e.g., “the GDC™ app”). GDC Trademarks should not be used in plural or possessive form or as verbs.

Green Dollar Coin Word Trademark

You may use the Green Dollar Coin trademark to indicate that your app is compatible with GDC. If you wish to include “Green Dollar Coin” in the name of your Green Dollar Coin app, domain names, and/or social media handles, you will be required to execute a Trademark Licensing Agreement, which will be made available on the Dev Portal app of the Green Dollar Coin Browser.

If permission is granted to you, you are only permitted to use “GDC” in the following permissible forms:

“App_Name for Green Dollar Coin”
“App_Name on Green Dollar Coin”
or something similar

You may not otherwise incorporate a Green Dollar Coin Trademark into your own non-affiliated product or service names, trademarks, logos, company names, or domain names, and you may not seek trademark or domain name registration for any term that includes a Green Dollar Coin Trademark unless pursuant to a written trademark license from Green Dollar Coin.

Green Dollar Coin Logo Use

You may use the Green Dollar Coin Logo solely to identify yourself and your app as a member of the Green Dollar Coin community. You may not use GDC Trademark or Logo for any commercial purposes, or in association with any other goods or services unless pursuant to a written trademark license from Green Dollar Coin.

Your use of the Green Dollar Coin Logo must be solely in this form and colors:

You may not revise, alter, or otherwise modify the Logo in any manner.

Green Dollar Coin Brand Colors

Please do NOT use Green Dollar Coin’s brand color palettes in building your app’s design. The colors can cause confusion among Pioneers, and lead them to erroneously believe that your app is affiliated with the Green Dollar Coin Core Team.

Style Of Use

When using GDC Trademarks: (i) use our Logo exactly as it appears here, and do not alter or distort its appearance in any way, for example, by adding your own design elements or changing the font, colors, or size; (ii) allow for clear space around our Logo; and (iii) maintain the legibility of our Logo and keep it sharp, clear, and well-produced. When using our word Trademarks, you may not change their appearance by abbreviating them, incorporating them into acronyms, changing their spelling, using them in parts, or using improper capitalization.

An exception to the above is when GDC invites participants to create GDC-themed artwork, for which creative works using the GDC Logo may be created, solely for non-commercial community engagement purposes.

No Trademark Bidding

Unless expressly permitted in an agreement between you and Green Dollar Coin, you may not bid on a Green Dollar Coin Trademark (or any variant or extension thereof) as a keyword on any search engine, or use a GDC Trademark (or any variant or extension thereof) in any form of paid advertising including, but not limited to, paid social and display advertisements.
