Brand use principles

The ICMS logo, trademarks, name, and taglines are part of the Society's intellectual property and should be represented truthfully, fairly, and without misleading implications.

These rules apply to ICMS employees, institutional and professional members, clinic members, vendors, affiliates, and the general public.

  • Prior written permission is required before using the ICMS logo, name, or brand.
  • Unlicensed use of the ICMS logo, brand, or name is not permitted.
  • Professional members may use the professional membership logo only in approved contexts and may not imply accreditation.
  • Only fully accredited clinics in good standing may use the accredited logo, if that program remains active.
  • ICMS marks may not be used on products or packaging, incorporated into product or company names, or modified.
  • No use may imply association, accreditation, certification, endorsement, or approval unless ICMS has expressly granted that status.
