Fair Use guidelines for use and reference of Rocket trademarks

The use of Rocket’s trademarks by a third party without express permission or license, is limited to text-only references such as product and service names and excludes the use of Rocket logos.

When referencing Rocket trademarks, you must:

Following are two common types of fair use:

• be truthful.
• not disparage Rocket.
• not mislead the public.
• be clear and accurate as to the nature of the relationship between Rocket and your company, its products, and its services.

The most common uses are:

• When you are specifically referring to Rocket products.    
  
  Example: “…Rocket®️ Modern Experience, a central management platform and modernization tool that empowers your engineering and IT teams to modernize the UI and UX of your core applications through deployment of prebuilt or dynamically customized UI..”   
   
• When you are indicating that a Rocket product is compatible with another product.   
  
  Example: “Product X is built on the Rocket® Uniface® platform.”

Please note that the emphasis should be on your product name and any accompanying packaging produced by your company. Labeling should place emphasis on your product name so that it is perceived as an application, developed with, compatible with, or running with a Rocket product.

Use of Rocket logos

Rocket carefully limits the use of its logos by third parties. No other company may use Rocket logos unless it has the express written permission of Rocket or is licensed by Rocket to do so.

Use of "Rocket" as a company name

"Rocket" is both a trademark of Rocket Software, Inc. as well as a company name. When "Rocket" is used to identify the company Rocket Software, Inc., it is called a trade name. Trade name usage typically applies when referring to a company as opposed to a particular product. It is permissible to use Rocket as a possessive if you are referring to Rocket the company. In that case, the name does not identify goods or services (which are legally the domain of trademarks) and as such should not include a registration mark.
