Someone is using my logo. What do I do?

The short answer

Email the details to legal@logoorbit.net, with links or screenshots. Greg Adams, our Senior Legal Counsel, looks after brand protection and will tell you what your options actually are before anybody spends money on them.

The longer answer

Gather evidence before doing anything else: screenshots with visible dates, URLs, and where you first saw it. Then write to the legal desk. Where the mark is one we designed, our records of authorship and the signed assignment are strong evidence of your position.

What you will get back is a realistic account of the options rather than a promise of an outcome. Some of these resolve with a letter; some are not worth the cost of pursuing, and you deserve to be told which one you are looking at.

Still not answered?

Ask a person. WhatsApp is fastest for something short, the phone is best for anything that needs a conversation, and support@logoorbit.net is watched all day.
