56+
57+
The following uses of Restricted Brand Assets are strictly PROHIBITED:
58+
59+
#### 4.1 Unauthorized Applications
60+
- Use by products NOT listed in the official VRCFaceTracking Module Registry
61+
- Use by software that does not actually support VRCFaceTracking or Unified Expressions
62+
- Use for products that only claim compatibility without official verification
63+
64+
#### 4.2 Commercial Misuse
65+
- Using Restricted Brand Assets to imply official endorsement without authorization
66+
- Incorporating Restricted Brand Assets into other logos or trademarks
67+

68+
- Using Restricted Brand Assets in ways that could confuse consumers about product origin
69+
70+
#### 4.3 Modification and Alteration
71+
- Altering, modifying, or creating derivative works of the Restricted Brand Assets
72+
- Changing colors, fonts, or design elements of compatibility badges

74+
- Using outdated or unofficial versions of the Restricted Brand Assets
75+
76+
### 5. VERIFICATION REQUIREMENTS
77+
78+
#### 5.1 Module Registry Listing
79+
To use the "Works with VRCFaceTracking" badge, your product MUST be officially listed in the VRCFaceTracking Module Registry. Products that are not listed shall NOT use this badge, even if they may technically support VRCFaceTracking.
80+
81+
#### 5.2 Unified Expressions Support
82+
To use the "Compatible with Unified Expressions" badge, your software or avatar MUST actually implement the Unified Expressions standard for face tracking shapes. For avatars, the base 3D model file itself must incorporate these shapes - compatibility achieved only through Unity scripts or workarounds without proper avatar integration does not qualify for badge use.

89+
- Restricted Brand Assets must be used in good faith to accurately represent compatibility

# Brand Guide
4+
Hi there! Glad you're using VRCFaceTracking in your project. This repository contains assets in SVG and PNG format to showcase your product's compatibility with VRCFT and Unified Expressions
5+
## License
6+
7+
Before using these assets, please review both the LICENSE and Brand Guide files, there are important restrictions to note on badges.
8+
## Avatar Makers
9+
10+
You should use the following badge if:
11+
12+
- You used Unified Expressions to create your blendshapes on the base model
13+
- Your avatar currently transmits these blendshapes as Unified Expressions over OSC.
14+
15+
<img src="https://github.com/VRCFaceTracking/brand-guide/blob/master/PNG/Badges/UE%20Badge.png?raw=true" width="50%" alt="Compatible with Unified Expressions">
16+
17+
## Software & Hardware
18+
19+
Please read the license before using the Works with VRCFaceTracking badge, but as a rule of thumb:
20+
- If your product was reviewed by a member of the VRCFaceTracking team to add to the Module Registry, use the Works with VRCFaceTracking.
21+
- If your product has its own software capable of transmitting or receiving Unified Expressions, use the Unified Expressions badge.
22+
23+
If your product fufills both, feel free to use both.
