Registered trademark and copyright

This page clarifies the conditions relating to the name YOURSAF®, its logo, and the original content published on the official website www.yoursaf.org.

The goal is to allow those who wish to learn about, cite, or tell the story of YOURSAF to do so correctly, without limiting the normal informational and editorial use of the content.

YOURSAF® is a registered trademark

YOURSAF® is a registered trademark.

The name YOURSAF, the logo, and any other distinctive elements associated with the project identify YOURSAF and its synchronized collective meditation Protocol.

The trademark belongs to the relevant rights holders and may not be used in a way that creates confusion about the origin of content, a service, or an activity.

Citing the name YOURSAF

The fact that YOURSAF® is a registered trademark does not prevent its name from being cited.

The name YOURSAF may be used in articles, interviews, podcasts, videos, publications, studies, reviews, informational content, and other editorial materials when the reference to the project is relevant and accurate.

It is not necessary to request authorization simply to:

  • name YOURSAF
  • describe the project
  • talk about the Protocol
  • report information published on the website
  • produce an article, interview, or editorial content about YOURSAF
  • express opinions, evaluations, or criticism about the project

The mere citation of the name YOURSAF does not imply any affiliation, approval, sponsorship, partnership, or official collaboration with YOURSAF.

When indicating the project's official website, the correct reference is: www.yoursaf.org

Use of the YOURSAF logo

The YOURSAF logo is a distinctive element of the project and should not be treated as a simple image freely reusable.

The logo may be used in editorial content dedicated to YOURSAF when its use is relevant and does not create confusion about the origin or approval of the content.

When available, it is recommended to use only the official logo provided by YOURSAF, without modifying its:

  • proportions
  • colors
  • shape
  • graphic elements
  • composition

The logo must not be used to suggest that an organization, product, service, event, or activity is officially organized, approved, sponsored, or supported by YOURSAF when such a relationship does not exist.

Commercial and promotional uses

Use of the YOURSAF logo for commercial, advertising, promotional, or institutional purposes, or in contexts where it could be interpreted as a sign of an official relationship with YOURSAF, requires prior authorization.

For specific requests, you can contact us through the Contact page.

Copyright

The original content published on the website www.yoursaf.org is protected by applicable copyright laws.

Protection covers, within the limits provided by law, the original elements created for the project, including, by way of example:

  • texts
  • articles and editorial content
  • photographs and original images
  • illustrations and graphics
  • informational materials
  • documents
  • audiovisual elements
  • materials related to the YOURSAF Protocol
  • other original content published on the website

© YOURSAF. All rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.

The presence of content on the website does not mean that it is automatically available for any form of reproduction, modification, distribution, or commercial use.

Citations and short excerpts

The possibility of citing YOURSAF and using short excerpts of content remains subject to applicable copyright law.

When quoting content from the website, good practice includes:

  • indicating YOURSAF as the source
  • not altering the original meaning of the content
  • indicating, where appropriate, the page or content from which the information comes
  • providing the reference to the official website www.yoursaf.org

The citation of content must not be presented as original material by the author of the publication when it comes from YOURSAF.

Reproduction of content

The full or substantial reproduction of texts, documents, images, photographs, graphics, or other original materials present on the website may require specific authorization, except where such use is permitted by applicable law or by a specific license or authorization.

It is not permitted to use YOURSAF content to:

  • create materials that could be mistaken for official YOURSAF content
  • attribute to YOURSAF statements or positions it has not expressed
  • promote products, services, or activities unrelated to the project by suggesting official approval
  • create a non-existent commercial or institutional association
  • systematically republish the site's content as autonomous third-party content

Images and photographs

Images and photographs on the website may be subject to copyright and, in some cases, to additional rights belonging to their respective authors or owners.

The mere presence of an image on the website does not mean that it is freely usable.

Images expressly indicated by YOURSAF as available for press use or included in the press kit may be used according to the conditions specified for each material.

When a photo credit or other form of attribution is requested, such indication must be respected.

To use images not expressly indicated as available for editorial use, prior authorization may be requested.

An important distinction

Citing YOURSAF is not the same as using the trademark or reproducing its content.

It is possible, for example, to write:

«YOURSAF is a synchronized collective meditation Protocol.»

Citing the name within the scope of informational content does not, in itself, require authorization from YOURSAF.

Different is using the YOURSAF logo, fully reproducing an article, publishing photographs of the project, or using YOURSAF materials to promote a commercial activity.

In these cases, specific conditions relating to the trademark, copyright, or other rights may apply.

Correct use of the name and the project

Anyone can talk about YOURSAF, tell its story, describe its Protocol, analyze its principles, or express their own opinion.

We simply ask that such content be presented accurately and transparently, and that no affiliation, approval, or official collaboration be suggested when none exists.

YOURSAF wants the project to be known, discussed, and told freely, while respecting the rights that protect it.

For authorization requests

For requests relating to:

  • use of the logo
  • use of photographs or images
  • reproduction of content
  • commercial or promotional use
  • editorial collaborations
  • other specific uses of the name or YOURSAF materials

you can contact us through the Contact page.
