1. An Arbitron mark should appear in some distinctive type (such as italics, boldface type, capital letters, underlines, quotation marks).
2. The trademark, service mark and registration symbol (as noted) should always be presented adjacent to the mark (e.g., Maximi$er®), at least once on everything, device or paper, identified by the mark, preferably at the first and/or most prominent use of the mark. All uses of the mark should make it clear that the term is a mark. (See #1 above). In lengthy works, repeat use of the attribution symbol periodically (e.g., once every section, page or chapter).
3. All promotional/advertising materials using the mark should include some sort of notation (e.g., an asterisk or a footnote) that the mark is a registered mark of Arbitron Inc. For example, "Maximi$er® is a registered mark of Arbitron Inc."
The following are proper attribution phrases to use in the footnote:
® [mark]® is a registered mark of Arbitron Inc. SM [mark]SM is a mark of Arbitron Inc. TM [mark] is a mark of Arbitron Inc.
In the event that you are providing attribution for more than one Arbitron mark, list the marks in alphabetical order. If the types of marks differ when citing multiple marks, use the generic phrase "[mark]SM, [mark] and [mark]® are marks of Arbitron Inc."
4. Never vary the spelling of, alter the appearance of, abbreviate, combine, hyphenate, translate, or use a plural or possessive form of an Arbitron mark. For example, do NOT use “Arbitron’s eBook.”
5. The mark should always be treated as an adjective followed by a generic noun and should not be used as a noun or a verb. For example, a proper use is “Maximi$er® software.”
