F. Publications, Lectures, PowerPoint & Other Presentations.
Third Parties may use JuniorLinks Marks (but not any JuniorLinks logos) in the titles of publications, such as books or magazines, or in connection with presentations, provided that the use: (i) is referential only; (ii) does not use the JuniorLinks Mark as a trademark; and (iii) complies with this Trademark Policy. JuniorLinks Marks must always be attributed with the proper symbol and footnoted, on all publications and presentations that are displayed to the public (sales, trade shows etc), unless JuniorLinks is sponsoring your presentation and otherwise provided in writing.
Since the JuniorLinks Marks are used only to describe the content of the publication or presentation and are not used as trademarks to promote your own products and services, you should not attempt to establish trademark or other proprietary rights by registering, or attempting to register, the titles as trademarks, service marks, corporate names or trade names. In addition, your name or mark and logo should appear in a prominent location on the cover and title page of all publications and on all materials related to the presentations and should appear more prominent than the title incorporating the JuniorLinks Marks on all printed materials related to the publications or presentations.
Please note that this Section 1(F) only permits referential use of a JuniorLinks Mark (but not any JuniorLinks logo)- it does not permit use of any JuniorLinks Mark as a trademark. Without the express prior written consent of JuniorLinks, no JuniorLinks Mark may be used as a trademark to promote any publication, lecture or other presentation.

B. Third Party Marks.
Unless expressly authorized by JuniorLinks in writing, third parties generally may not use any JuniorLinks Marks as part of their company names, trademarks or logos. In other words, no person or entity may combine any JuniorLinks Mark with any third party trademark without the express prior written consent of JuniorLinks.
No third party may name or rename a product or service of its own to include the word "JuniorLinks" without the express prior written consent of JuniorLinks.

A. JuniorLinks Mark Table.
Listed below are the current JuniorLinks Marks. This list will be updated from time to time, at the sole discretion of JuniorLinks. In addition, JuniorLinks may, at its sole discretion, modify the JuniorLinks Marks at any time. Please refer to the JuniorLinks Mark Table periodically to ensure your compliance.

B. Proper Trademark Use.

C. Provide Trademark Notice Symbols.
When using any JuniorLinks Mark, you should use proper trademark notice symbols. A JuniorLinks Mark that has been registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") must bear the ® symbol. All other JuniorLinks Marks must bear the ™ symbol. These symbols provide notice to third parties of JuniorLinks's rights in its Marks. Please refer to the JuniorLinks Mark Table in Section 3(A) to determine which notice symbols should be used with which JuniorLinks Mark.
JuniorLinks word marks must bear the proper trademark notice symbols (® or ™), in the first and most prominent usage of a mark and again in the first appearance of a word mark in the text or body of copy. Notice symbols must always appear with all JuniorLinks logos. Wherever possible, trademark notice symbols should be superscripted immediately after all JuniorLinks Marks. Once proper trademark notice symbols are used, and a JuniorLinks Mark is correctly attributed to JuniorLinks (as further explained below), in permitted materials, it is not ordinarily necessary to mark subsequent appearances of the trademark in the same text.
D. Statement for Correct Attribution.
All JuniorLinks Marks that are used by third parties must be attributed to JuniorLinks with our standard trademark attribution statement. The statement must always be a complete sentence, and ordinarily be placed in a visible place in the material referencing the JuniorLinks Marks, e.g., on the copyright page, on the last page of the material, on the bottom of a web page, on a website's trademark policy page, or on product packaging. The following attribution statement must be used in all material referencing the JuniorLinks Marks:
"[Insert all JuniorLinks Marks that appear in that particular piece] is/are trademark(s) (or registered trademark(s)) of JuniorLinks.com in the United States and other countries."
