  • The names and marks of the university will not be used in the promotion of tobacco and/or "recreational" drug products.
  • The University of Arizona logos cannot be used to endorse or promote a private group or business unless authorized by a formal contract or sponsorship agreement. Private companies are allowed to use UA logos only after entering into a promotion-specific agreement with the university.
  • Merchandise that bears a registered (or common law) trademark, trade name, service mark or logo of the University of Arizona name must be approved, in writing, by the Office of Trademarks & Licensing (or its agent, IMG College Licensing). Merchandise produced without written authorization may be considered "counterfeit" and subject to all available legal remedies, including seizure of the merchandise.
  • Logos are to be used as registered, including the appropriate trademark designation, but may not be otherwise altered without the expressed authorization of the Trademarks & Licensing Office.
  • Departments may only use the Block A with their official lockup. The University of Arizona Brand Guidelines are available for your reference on brand.arizona.edu.
