ISA Logo — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ISA logo?

The combination of the ISA logotype and the three symbol components make up the ISA logo. The ISA logo is the single strongest visual element used to promote our brand. Therefore, it must be used consistently and correctly in order to effectively build awareness and to reinforce our identity's legal protection. You may use the Logo only as provided by ISA. Except for size, which is subject to the restrictions in these guidelines, the Logo may not be altered in any manner, including proportions, colors, elements, etc., or animated, morphed, or otherwise distorted in perspective or dimensional appearance. Always use the approved electronic artwork when reproducing the ISA logo.

How can the ISA Logo be used?

The ISA logo is our official "trademark." Its use is reserved for official publications or other products of ISA. The ISA Logo may be used, in accordance to the logo rules, by society leaders and volunteers on printed materials and specialty items (such as shirts or hats) that promote ISA Sections or Divisions, and their activities, events, or products. The Logo may not be altered in any manner, including proportions, colors, elements, etc., or animated, morphed, or otherwise distorted in perspective or dimensional appearance. The Logo shall include the registered trademark symbol (™) as shown in the logo rules. ISA Members who are not doing volunteer work for the society should not have a need to use the ISA logo. They may however, have a need for the ISA Member logo (see question below).
