6. Guidelines for Usage.

We permit your use of Bevi’s Trademarks as set forth under this Policy or pursuant to your license agreement with Bevi to promote Bevi’s products and services. However, your use of Bevi’s Trademarks must also conform strictly to the following guidelines:

1. Trademarks are Adjectives. Trademarks are proper adjectives used to modify nouns. A trademark is not a thing; it is a brand of thing. For all of Bevi’s Trademarks, include an appropriate generic term and/or the word “brand” after the mark, so that it is clear that the mark refers to a specific product or service that is of a particular type.

• Example: BEVI® beverage dispensers, not a BEVI®

1. Consistent and Distinctive Use. It is important that your references to Bevi’s Trademarks are accurate, consistent and always present Bevi’s Trademarks in the same way. Without limitation, you shall not: (i) make singular marks plural; (ii) make marks possessive; (iii) alter spelling or punctuation; (iv) combine marks with other terms or incorporate them into a slogan; or (v) use marks in lowercase format.

• Example: BEVI® machines, not BEVIS®
• Example: BEVI® machines, not BEVI’s® machines
• Example: SMART WATER COOLER®, not SMARTER WATER COOLER®
• Example: HYDRATE HAPPY®, not super HYDRATE HAPPY®
• Example: HYDRATE HAPPY®, not hydrate happy

1. Identification and Status. Always identify Bevi’s Trademarks by using the proper trademark notice symbol. Refer to Section 3 of this Policy for the correct notice symbols for Bevi’s Trademarks. The requirements for identification differ between registered and unregistered trademarks, and trademarks used in or outside the United States.

• In the United States, use the appropriate symbol (® or ™) in superscript next to the mark at least the first time it appears on a product, in the text of advertising and marketing materials and online. Use the “®” symbol to identify Bevi’s Trademarks that are registered in the U.S. Use the “™” symbol to identify Bevi’s Trademarks that have not been registered, but which Bevi is using to identify certain of its products or services. Refer to Section 3 of this Policy for the correct notice symbols for Bevi’s Trademarks.

• Outside the United States, do not use notice symbols on products, advertisements, websites or ecommerce portals. Instead, use the following acknowledgement: “BEVI and the BEVI logo are trademarks of Hydration Labs, Inc. d/b/a Bevi.”

7. Third-Party Marks. Other names or trademarks, including those appearing on Bevi’s websites or in connection with Bevi’s products or services, that are not owned by Bevi are for identification purposes only and may be the registered or unregistered trademarks of their respective owners. No license or right is hereby granted by Bevi by implication, estoppel or otherwise in or to any such third-party names or trademarks.

8. Amendment. Bevi may update this Policy from time to time. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting the revised policy on this website. Your continued use of Bevi’s Trademarks after the posting of any modifications indicates your acceptance of the new policy.
