Marca comercială QGIS și modul ei de utilizare

We’re thrilled that you want to refer to either the QGIS project or the QGIS.ORG association and sincerely appreciate your help in spreading the word.

This page aims to provide you with all the information and resources you need to correctly use the QGIS brand assets.

Trademark Goals: Our main aim is to encourage those who do business using QGIS name and logo to:

  • not misrepresent or bring disrepute to the QGIS project
  • not present the QGIS project as their own work
  • participate actively in the project and help us to improve QGIS

Trademark Protection: The QGIS name and logo are protected under European law from unauthorized and confusing uses of the trademark. You can find our trademark information at EUIPO.

QGIS trademarks, service marks, logos and designs, as well as other works of authorship that are eligible for copyright protection (collectively termed “Marks”) are valuable assets that QGIS.ORG needs to protect. QGIS.ORG does not permit all uses of QGIS Marks. QGIS.ORG provides these Trademark Usage Guidelines (“Guidelines”) to assist you in properly using our Marks in the specific cases that we do permit. The strength of our Marks depends, in part, upon consistent and appropriate use. We ask that you properly use and credit our Marks in accordance with these Guidelines. We reserve the right to change these Guidelines at any time solely at our discretion.

These Guidelines should be followed along with all QGIS’s rules and policies, posted on QGIS.ORG website or otherwise.

Grupuri de Utilizatori

QGIS.ORG permits official QGIS user groups, to modify the QGIS logo and use the modified QGIS logo for non-commercial communications and projects. This permission is subject to continued compliance with these Guidelines, QGIS Trademark Guidelines and all other rules and policies. QGIS reserves the right to cancel or change this permission at any time at its sole discretion. If you would like to use a modified version of the QGIS logo, please submit your artwork for approval at trademark@qgis.org. Upon approval, you will receive a license agreement to sign before you may begin using the artwork.

QGIS.ORG also permits official user groups, to register a QGIS Top Level Domain (e.g. qgis.ch, qgis.dk etc.) according to the rules further down in this document.

Exemple de utilizare care nu necesită o permisiune

În cazuri de utilizare corectă, puteți să utilizați sau să faceți trimitere la marca QGIS, fără permisiune explicită de la QGIS.ORG. De exemplu:

  • Books, articles, tutorials: If you write articles, books, blog articles, tutorials, study materials for university, and similar, you do not need a permission to cite QGIS name and use the logo in the content you produce.
💭
Note

We require you to give attribution to the QGIS project and reference the project website somewhere in your book, article, etc. This could be a short paragraph in the Introduction or Preface. Avoid anything that may give the impression that your work is an official QGIS product.

  • Cursuri, instruire: Dacă țineți un curs de QGIS, fie academic, fie gratuit ori comercial, puteți utiliza atât logo-ul cât și numele ‘QGIS’ în materialele de curs.
💭
Note

În mod obișnuit, la cursul dvs, ar trebui să amintiți despre QGIS că este o aplicație gratuită și cu sursă deschisă, și să încurajați, în mod activ, pe oricine să contribuie, direct sau indirect, la proiect.

  • Services: If you provide services (support, development) for QGIS, you can use QGIS trademark to describe or advertise your services or products relating to QGIS, provided this is done in a way that is not misleading (such as presenting the QGIS project as your own work). See the requirements for product names below.
  • Linking: If you use the QGIS logo on a website linking to our websites (https://QGIS.org) or any of our domains, or github, you do not need special permission.
  • Producerea de mărfuri: Puteți crea tricouri, în scop necomercial, fundaluri pentru ecran, insigne sau alte produse care să poarte marca QGIS. De asemenea, puteți crea produse pentru uz comercial având imprimată marca QGIS, cu condiția de a indica cu sinceritate clienților care parte a prețului de vânzare va fi donată proiectului QGIS, atunci când este cazul. Consultați pagina noastră de donații, pentru a afla cum puteți dona către proiectul QGIS.

Examples of use requiring permission

Some uses of our trademark require the user to obtain permission. If you need permission, please fill out our form.

Note

Obtaining permission is not a formal endorsement of your QGIS related project and doesn’t constitute a statement on the quality of your service.

  • Product names: If you plan to market a QGIS-based product or service to the public using a trademark or name that includes the word “QGIS”, such as “YourCompany QGIS” you are required to apply for and obtain a permission from the QGIS Project Steering Committee (QGIS-PSC). This is true whether or not you apply to register your trademark with a government. When developing and advertising QGIS-based products, we ask you to follow these guidelines:
    1. Don’t present your work as our work: If you provide a customized QGIS version, make it clear that your offer is a derivative product, and not the official QGIS version. Do this by adding your company or brand name to the product name and accompanying text explaining that your product is a derivative as needed.
    2. Don’t present our work as your work: Give credit to the QGIS project where due. Don’t hide the fact that your product is based on QGIS.
    3. Numele produselor corespunzătoare includ:
      • CompaniaDvs QGIS
      • CompaniaDvs Suită/Desktop agrenată de QGIS
      • MarcăProprie angrenată de QGIS
      • MarcăProprie bazată pe QGIS

Referring to QGIS

Când vă referiți la QGIS, vă rugăm să nu subminați validitatea proiectului principal QGIS. Preferăm să vă referiți la pachetele noastre software ca “Pachete oficiale” și nu ca “Versiuni ale comunității” sau similare. Dacă realizați propriile pachete, vă rugăm să precizați că acestea sunt pachete derivate și nu sunt create sau aprobate de proiectul QGIS.

  • Domain names and websites: Proper use of our Marks on websites to name or accurately describe QGIS’s products, services or technology is permitted. The use of our Marks should not be misleading or likely to cause confusion as to whether the website is sponsored by or affiliated with QGIS or whether the products, services or technology are offered by QGIS. QGIS Reserves the right to request you to remove our mark from your domain name, web site or publication if we deem it’s use to be inappropriate.
    1. Companies, products, and commercial projects cannot use a qgis.tld (top level domain): Any principal or secondary level domain name, with or without commercial intent, should not be identical to or virtually identical to any of our Marks.
    2. Companiile, produsele și proiectele comerciale ar trebui, de preferință, să nu folosească ****qgis****.xxxx: Proprietarul site-ului web nu ar trebui să înregistreze vreun nume de domeniu care conține Mărcile noastre și nu ar trebui să revendice vreo marcă comercială sau drepturi de proprietate similare asupra numelui de domeniu. De exemplu, “QGIStech.com“, “QGIS-group.com“, “QGISexperts.com“ nu sunt permise fără a cere permisiunea. Orice încălcare a acestei politici poate duce la acțiuni legale. În caz contrar, site-ul web ar trebui să respecte politicile privind registrul numelor de domeniu și legile aplicabile privind încălcarea și diluarea mărcilor comerciale.
    3. Excepţii:
      • QGIS.ORG voting members should use their country TLD (QGIS.ch, QGIS.dk, …)
      • Proiectele non-comerciale pot folosi qgis.xxxxx (qgis.tutorials ar intra în această categorie dacă tutorialele ar fi gratuite), dar și acestea ar trebui să ceară permisiunea înainte de a înregistra domeniul. QGIS.ORG ar putea să înregistreze domeniul și să îl direcționeze către serverele de nume furnizate de solicitant sau să îl instruiască pe solicitant să facă acest lucru.

Întrebări Frecvente

Q: When do I have to show proper attribution?

A: Ori de câte ori utilizați termenul QGIS în presa scrisă, pe internet, sau în emisiunile audio, ar trebui să specificați drepturile corespunzătoare ale proiectului QGIS. Pentru mai multe informații, consultați “Drepturile asupra Mărcii Comerciale”.

Q: I am registering or have registered a trademark with my country’s trademark authority. Do I still need a permission?

A: Yes, assuming your trademark includes the element QGIS and it is being used in connection with software-related goods and services. Please note, the permission applies to the QGIS trademark whether or not they are registered with a trademark authority. If you are using the term QGIS as a trademark (whether or not registered), you need to apply for a permission.

Q: I am a commercial entity (for example, a company, partnership or sole proprietor, profit or non-profit) selling software-related goods or services and using the word “QGIS” in the entity’s name. Do I need to apply for a permission?

A: Using QGIS in the entity’s name is not permitted because you are using QGIS as part of a trademark in connection with software-related goods or services. Software-related goods are computer programs and systems, or packages bundling software with tools, utilities, hardware, etc. Software-related services are services that deploy, document, facilitate the use of, or enhance computer programs and systems. Even if you don’t use QGIS as part of the entity’s name, if the entity has a product or service (whether sold or given away for free) that uses “QGIS” in its name, you still need a permission for the use of the word QGIS in the name of the products or services.

Q: If I get a permission for my trademark, will QGIS refuse to grant similar permissions to marks that are the same as, or confusingly similar to, my mark?

R: Nu, QGIS nu va încerca să asigure exclusivitatea sau să protejeze mărcile împotriva încălcărilor de drepturi. QGIS consideră că protecția mărcilor cade în responsabilitatea proprietarului mărcii comerciale. QGIS nu este o autoritate de soluționare a litigiilor, și nu se va implica în disputele dintre proprietarii de mărci.

Q: Trademark Registration Consent: My organization has applied to register a trademark for software-related goods or services that includes QGIS as an element. The application was rejected for confusing similarity to QGIS trademark. If I have trademark usage permission, will QGIS consent to my registration?

A: No. The QGIS trademark usage permission is not a consent for the registration of other trademarks. To protect the QGIS mark from dilution, we do not consent to the registration of trademarks found to be confusingly similar to the QGIS mark.
