Fraternity of International Real Bearded Santas Logo Use and
Retention Policy and Information
Subject to change without notice
Our logo has been created and given to us subject to the
following considerations and obligations:
Rachael Lloyd, the designer of the
Fraternity of International Real Bearded Santas logo grants to
the Fraternity the full and exclusive use of the logo as of
November, 2007, with three categories of exceptions listed
below. It is my intention that the Fraternity be able to use the
logo to promote its identity free of charge, for any honorable
purpose, including the freedom to make money from the logo for
the use of the organization. I, Rachael Lloyd, do not wish any
compensation for the logo, or to participate in any of the
normal promotion and use of the logo for the organization. I
wish only to retain the right to claim it as my intellectual
property and identify it as a personal creation in order to
further my artistic career through inclusion in my portfolio.
The logo can only be used by the Fraternity
to promote the positive traditional image of Santa as a
generous, honest, loving older male, who relates to children
only in a non-sexual way. The logo cannot be used to promote
Santa in any overtly sexual way at all, or to portray Santa as
vulgar in speech or action. Neither can the logo be used to
portray Santa as hostile, mean, foul-mouthed or combative.
The use of the logo can be rescinded should
an unjust change in the leadership of the Fraternity occur. In
the event of a hostile takeover the parties seizing control of
the organization forfeit any claim over the logo and its
exclusive use and ownership reverts back to Rachael Lloyd. The
logo may be used freely by the current leadership or any
subsequent leadership that is achieved in an orderly,
fair-minded way.
The Fraternity may charge money for items
that use the logo in any decent way as long as the profit does
not go to a single individual, but benefits the organization as
a whole.
It is the intention of Rachael Lloyd that
the Fraternity hold this logo in perpetuity, whether her
husband, David G. Lloyd, is a member of the organization or not.
The use of the logo can be withdrawn totally by Rachael Lloyd
only if the organization misuses it in any of the ways described
above. If any unfortunate event, such as described above occur,
while she is incapacitated or deceased her husband, David G.
Lloyd, can act in her behalf.
