Subject: Logos, ISO in particular
Greetings! Checked after the conference call and it looks like use of the ISO logo would not be permitted. From: http://www.iso.ch/iso/en/xsite/namelogo.html > "The ISO logo is a registered trademark. Unless authorized by ISO, use > of its logo is prohibited. Notably, ISO will not allow its logo to be > used in connection with conformity assessment activities. These > include the certification of management systems, products, services, > materials or personnel, even when these certifications attest > conformity to an ISO standard, such as one of the ISO 9000 or ISO > 14000 series. Examples of unacceptable use of the ISO logo would > include use on products, on Internet sites, in marketing materials, > advertisements and company letterheads. ...ISO will take whatever > actions it considers necessary to prevent the misuse of its logo." Does explain the absence of the ISO logo on various products. I assume from the statements at: http://www.iso.org/iso/en/iso9000-14000/publicizing/publicizing_4.html that there are no other ISO logos. Since there appear to be no other ISO standards with their own logos, I would assume one would not be approved as part of the ISO process. Definitive answers to these questions would require contacting the ISO/IEC Information Centre at: mbinfo@iso.org. It is not clear if a standard had a logo when entering the ISO process, such as an OASIS standard, what would be the fate of that logo. I think we need to get to OASIS standard status first and have a logo, before we raise that question. Hope everyone is having a great day!
