Nominative fair use
This publication uses each of the marks above only as needed to identify the standard being described. The use satisfies the three-prong test articulated in New Kids on the Block v. News Am. Publ'g, 971 F.2d 302 (9th Cir. 1992):
- The standard cannot be readily identified without the mark.
- The mark is used only to the extent reasonably necessary.
- No suggestion of sponsorship or endorsement is made; this disclosure, together with the masthead banner and footer notice, makes the absence of affiliation explicit on every page.
