# Lingfern name and artwork

You may refer to Lingfern truthfully and retain its name and project link in attribution. Do not imply endorsement, official status or ownership of Lingfern when describing a derivative project.

## Artwork has separate terms

The software's Apache-2.0 licence and the documentation's CC BY 4.0 licence do not automatically cover the Lingfern symbol in [public/icon.svg](https://github.com/euanylin/lingfern/blob/main/public/icon.svg) or its installation icons, public/icon-192.png and public/icon-512.png.

The SVG is the single source artwork; the PNG files are size-specific copies for application installation. General permission to reproduce or modify these artworks beyond existing authorised project use has not been granted. Public visibility in this repository is not a general artwork licence. The prose in the [asset guide](https://github.com/euanylin/lingfern/blob/main/docs/brand-assets.md) is documentation; the artwork it describes remains separate.

This policy does not remove rights granted by Apache-2.0, CC BY 4.0 or applicable law, and it does not require permission to provide the attribution those licences allow. It adds no mandatory advertising or restriction on otherwise licensed code and imposes no new obligation retroactively.

## Displaying authorised assets

When you have permission to display the artwork, use the supplied complete SVG and follow the [asset guide](https://github.com/euanylin/lingfern/blob/main/docs/brand-assets.md). Preserve its proportions and geometry; do not redraw, stretch or crop it.

This policy makes no claim of trademark registration, worldwide uniqueness, rights beyond those established, or permission to relicense third-party artwork. See [LICENSING](https://github.com/euanylin/lingfern/blob/main/LICENSING.md) for the code, documentation and third-party scope.
