Under these Marketing and Branding Terms and the Marketer Agreement, the Marketer is granted a limited right to use certain trademarks of "newme", as specifically defined herein (collectively the “Trademarks”) strictly in accordance with said terms.
These Marketing and Branding Terms are an integrated part of the Marketer Agreement, and are supplemented by other supplementary contract terms which form part of the Marketer Agreement.
Marketing and Branding of the Services
The Services are provided under brand names determined by "NewmeFace for newme," which brand names constitute Trademarks of newme and/or its licensors. The Partner acknowledges that newme shall at all times retain ultimate discretion to determine the branding of the Services, and shall have the unfettered discretion to alter such branding and subsequently to alter, replace or remove one or more of the Trademarks forming part of such branding.
The Partner undertakes that it will only market the Services under the brand names determined by newme or the company NewmeFace. In no event may the Partner or Marketer(i) market the Services under other brand names, or (ii) market the Services under the brand names determined by NewmeFace in combination with any other trademark, trade name, domain name, word or symbol, “tag line”, “endorsement line” or “enhancing statement”, whether owned by the Partner or a third party, including co-branding, double-branding or other combinations. Any exceptions require prior express written approval from NewmeFace Incorporated.
When marketing the Services, the Partner, Marketer, or influencer shall only use approved marketing materials provided by NewmeFace for such purpose.
The Partner or Marketer may only use the brand names, logo and banners provided from the marketers, influencers or partner's dashboard.
