Brand Usage: Community Use of Algorand Trademark and Brand

The Algorand logo and standalone “A” are trademarks of Algorand Technologies, but available for use by the community and users of the open source network. The logo types can be downloaded below and the following guidelines should be followed when using the logos:

  • The Algorand and “A” logo are to be used for community purposes only, including merchandise, but no other for profit business. This includes community engagement such as creative visuals, meetups, merchandise, etc. 
  • The Algorand and “A” logo can be used to note that your company service, or application is leveraging the open source public Algorand blockchain to power its offering. 
  • No person or entity should be misrepresenting the use of the logo in any official Algorand capacity or misleading others to think they are the organization behind the official Algorand blockchain. 
  • Use of the brand does not mean that you own it - Algorand, Inc. maintains the rights to the trademark in all instances. 
  • Use of the logos or name can not be used with other phrases or words (ie, AlgorandInvesting, Algorandstore, etc.). Algorand can not be connected to any other product or service, unless in the context of an application that is leveraging the open source blockchain network.
