This page contains various graphical assets that are intended to be used by Apache Incubator podlings and their communities. The Apache Software Foundation owns all Apache-related trademarks, service marks, and graphic logos. You can read our formal Trademark Policy that addresses allowable uses and how to contact us for permissions. The Apache Incubator provides two main types of graphic:

  • Incubator Graphics - the official Apache Incubator logo
  • “Powered By” Apache Incubator Logos - to be used by Apache Incubator podlings
Please note that each Apache podling provides and maintains their own official project logo on their homepage. The best place to ask for a copy of a project logo is on their dev@ mailing list.

Inspired by the ASF’s “Powered by Apache” logo [LINK], the “Apache Incubator Podling” logo was created to maintain the unique identity of each Apache podling whilst undergoing development in the Apache Incubator. All Apache podlings and their communities are encouraged to proudly display “Apache Incubator Podling” assets on their Websites, documentation, marketing materials, etc. Guidelines for the appropriate use of the “Powered By Apache” logos include:

  • The standalone “Powered By” Apache Incubator and “Apache Incubator Podling” circular banded logos may be used standalone with just the Apache Incubator logomark (denoting general use of an Apache Incubator podling) or in combination with an official Apache podling logo;
  • The official podling logo may not be altered in any way other than removing/separating the name(s) where applicable as approved by the associated Podling Project Management Committee (PPMC);
  • The appropriate trademark symbol(s), such as ® or ™, associated with the podling's logo --if applicable-- must be included in the logo;
  • The “Powered By” logo's circular band format, font, and color must not be altered in any way;
  • The logo and/or its contents must not be rotated, animated, distorted, or otherwise altered, nor should it be used as a graphic element, background, or pattern;
  • The logo and/or its contents must not be translated or localized, nor should it have versioning numbers or other unauthorized words added to it;
  • The preferred background color for the logo is white, however, the logo may appear on colored, black, or image/photographic backgrounds providing the logo's legibility is not compromised;
  • The logo may be sized and produced in multiple file formats as required by the Podling Project Management Committee, with a preferred minimum size of 80 pixels high in Web/online applications (where possible) to ensure legibility;
  • The logo may not, under any circumstances, be incorporated with a third party's company name, product name, or logo(s), or adopt marks and/or logos that are confusingly similar to or imply improper association with The Apache Software Foundation;
  • Third parties and programs are not allowed to use official Apache project or podling logos and/or create alternate logos or identifying marks relating to any Apache project without written permission from the associated Podling Project Management Committee and/or ASF Brand Management.
  • We have a trademark use policy for the "Powered By" phrase

In addition, official Apache Project pages and documentation on apache.org must utilize the appropriate trademark symbols on the respective Project logo, along with the following footnote: "Apache, Apache [PODLING NAME], and the Apache [PODLING NAME] logo are registered trademarks or trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation in the U.S. and/or other countries."
