Rules for Proper Use of INRIX Trademarks
- Trademarks are adjectives used to modify nouns; the noun is the generic name of a product or service. For example, INRIX Parking.
- An appropriate generic term must appear after the trademark the first time it appears in a printed piece, and as often as is reasonable after that. For example, INRIX Performance Measures in first usage; Performance Measures later in text provided that it is clear that later references refer to INRIX Performance measures. If it is unclear, always use INRIX Performance Measures.
- Always capitalize the INRIX name. Do not use upper and lower case letters.
Proper Trademark Notice and Attribution
- On product, product documentation, or other product communications, use the appropriate trademark symbol (TM, SM, ®) the first time the INRIX trademark appears in the text of the advertisement, brochure, or other material.
- When using a screen shot from an INRIX product or any verbatim INRIX messaging, include a footnote with attribution to INRIX.
- Include an attribution of INRIX ownership of its trademarks within the credit notice section of your product, product documentation, or other product communication.
Following are the correct formats:
The name and wordmark "INRIX" are registered trademarks of INRIX.
Co-branding beyond reference to relationship
Certain situations call for a coordinated marketing effort that extends beyond the use of trademarked names and logos to signal a strong partnership, an innovative business approach or a combined investment in an initiative. In these situations, unique creative may be developed to highlight the brands involved in the promotion.
In these situations, please consult the INRIX marketing team for assistance with developing the appropriate creative to clearly communicate the relationship and message of the joint collaboration.
