7. **Trademark Symbols in General** 7. **Trademark Symbols in General**

You must always use OpenPOWER Marks together with the symbol that denotes the appropriate status of the mark in the relevant jurisdiction, when applicable. For example, in the United States, a mark registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is denoted by the symbol ®, and an unregistered mark is denoted by the symbol ™ for trademark or SM for service mark. The trademark symbols are to be placed immediately after the mark in superscript (i.e., TRADEMARK™, SERVICE MARK ℠, REGISTERED MARK ®). If you do not have the appropriate symbol keys in your word processing software, then using the TM, SM, or ® symbol in parenthetical form is also permissible (i.e., (TM), (SM), (R)). Do not use the ® symbol for a mark that is not registered in the particular country in which you use the mark. Falsely indicating (whether intentionally or by mistake) that a mark is registered (e.g., using the ® symbol) when it is not, triggers various civil and criminal penalties in many nations around the world.

The registered trademark symbol ® or the unregistered trademark symbol ™ (as applicable depending on the given country in which you are using the applicable Mark) should appear with the first use of the applicable OpenPOWER Word Mark in a document, major section, web page, and/or paragraph; and all occurrences of the OpenPOWER Logos. Different rules may apply depending on whether the particular Mark has been registered in the particular country in which it is being used. Some of the OpenPOWER Marks have been registered in several countries around the world. You should confer with OpenPOWER as to the status of the particular OpenPOWER Mark in the country at issue. Do not use the ® symbol for the OpenPOWER Marks in any country in which the applicable OpenPOWER Mark is not registered; falsely indicating that a mark is registered may trigger various civil and criminal penalties. If there is any doubt as to the appropriate trademark symbol to be used, you should use the unregistered trademark symbol ™.
