"Evolution Foundation" and "Evolution" are trademarks of Evolution Foundation. The "evoai" wordmark and the Evolution Foundation logo are trademarks of Evolution Foundation.

1. Scope and purpose

This policy governs the use of Evolution Foundation trademarks and Evolution Foundation brand assets. It is intended to protect users from confusion and to preserve the official Evolution Foundation Community Edition visual identity.

This policy applies to any use of: (a) the product names and marks "Evolution Foundation" and "Evolution"; (b) the official logo and wordmark: the "evoai" wordmark with the neural network or molecule icon in neon green to the right; (c) the copyright line "© 2026 Evolution Foundation"; and (d) any materials that implement or express the Evolution Foundation official look and feel, including the Protected Visual Identity Elements listed in Section 3.

This policy does not change the software license for the source code, which is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. This policy controls only trademarks and brand assets.

2. Permitted trademark and brand asset use

2.1. You may truthfully refer to Evolution Foundation to describe that your software is based on, compatible with, or derived from this project, provided that such use does not imply endorsement by Evolution Foundation.

2.2. You may distribute and publicly host unmodified official builds of the Evolution Foundation Community Edition that include Evolution Foundation brand assets, provided that you comply with Section 3 and do not suggest endorsement beyond being an official unmodified build.

4. Restrictions for forks, modified versions, and redistributions

4.1. No modification of Protected Visual Identity Elements when using Evolution Foundation brand assets. If you distribute or publicly host any version of the user interface that uses Evolution Foundation brand assets, you may not remove, replace, modify, disable, or bypass any Protected Visual Identity Element.

4.2. Modified UI must remove Evolution Foundation brand assets. If you distribute or publicly host a modified user interface or user experience (including changes to branding or visual identity), you must: (a) remove and replace all Evolution Foundation trademarks and brand assets from the user interface, product name display, and related marketing materials for that distribution; and (b) choose a name and branding that are clearly distinct from Evolution Foundation.

4.3. No endorsement. You may not use Evolution Foundation trademarks or brand assets in a way that implies Evolution Foundation sponsors, endorses, or is affiliated with your distribution, except for unmodified official builds.

4.4. No derivative works of the logo and wordmark. You may not modify, adapt, recolor, redesign, or create derivative works of the Evolution Foundation logo or wordmark.

5. Permission requests

Any use not expressly permitted by this policy requires prior written permission from Evolution Foundation.
