The CFA Logo Committee was formed to help protect CFA from liability when the CFA logo is used. The following are guidelines for the use of the logo:
-
The Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA) logo is a registered trademark, the exclusive property of CFA, and may only be used for official CFA business by the CFA Central Office, members of the board of directors, members clubs and committees or affiliate associations as authorized by the CFA Board of Directors, and in accordance with the CFA Constitution.
-
CFA official business is defined as activities appropriate and necessary for the operation and promotion of CFA, as defined by the constitution, bylaws and show rules.
-
Any use of the logo for any other purpose, to include commercial purposes, other than those previously specified, is prohibited unless written permission is obtained prior to use from the CFA Board of Directors. Such unauthorized use will subject the user, whether an individual, social organization or business, to CFA disciplinary action and all profits from such use shall be transferred to CFA.
The CFA logo may be used by CFA clubs for the club stationary and show fliers. A club may be authorized to use this logo for pins and promotional items used in conjunction with their show or a CFA Annual Meeting; however, a license agreement must be signed by the vendor supplying these items and approved by CFA prior to manufacturing any item. In most cases outlined above, there will be no charge to the club or vendor.
The use of the CFA logo for commercial purposes such as jewelry, T-shirts or other wearing apparel must be pre-approved by CFA and a license agreement must be signed and approved prior to production of any item displaying the CFA logo. There is a one hundred dollar ($100.00) fee for like items payable to CFA. For a copy of a license agreement, please send your name and address to
RF@cfa.org
Logo buttons are available to be used as links to the CFA web site.
