Construction and clear space Area around the logo shows how close to the edge of printed medium logo can be placed. Empty area around the logo cannot be distributed by any elements in any case. On all sides, the exclusion zone should be measured from the farthest edge of the logo. No element, other than our tagline, may encroach on this space. The clear space around our logo is determined by taking the letter ‘O’ used within the logo at actual size and using it as a guide.

Formats Logos are available in a variety of formats, such as EPS, PDF, PNG and JPG. Both EPS and PDF formats are used for print media and can only be opened using specific software. JPG and PNG formats are mainly used for digital media.
Correct Logo placement Different formats require the logo to be placed in different positions, but as a general rule official logo should be placed in the top left or bottom right. However, best judgment should be exercised on a case-by-case basis, and there are many exceptions to the general rule.
Incorrect logo applications or usage You must not change the shape or color of the logo, make it fuzzy, add text to it, change its proportions, crop it or in any other way change the original design. These rules apply to all versions of the logo.
