[google-appengine] Offering a Google App Engine service: using the logo?

2011-12-02 Thread stephanos
Hi,

I'm developing a error tracking service called http://crashnote.com and one 
of the platforms I want to target is the App Engine. Obviously I want to 
make this very clear on my landing page, so I thought using the logo is a 
great way of doing this.

Today I received a response to my request which said "we cannot approve 
your request". I can understand them, I mean I wouldn't want anyone to use 
my logo and misguide users.

But I want to be a legit SaaS offering for this App Engine platform, there 
must be some way to become an official "partner".

I'd be happy to hear advice/suggestions.


Regards,
Stephan

Not a lawyer, not a Google Employee, and I don't know what your request
said.

 

I had no trouble getting permission for 

 

"Powered by the Google App EngineT platform"

 

With the "Jet" logo. Approved.   Though I did so very early.

 

(They make you send actual paper in the mail. I didn't have to send actual
paper for an NDA. They are very serious about logos)

Stephanos,

You'll definitely want to talk to a lawyer. What you are doing is different
from what Brandon is doing. It's one thing to say you are powered by App
Engine, and I would imagine it's something totally different to imply that
you have any deeper relationship with Google (via partnership). I'm not a
lawyer, however, so I can't interpret this for you.
