You MAY, without asking

  • Use the name "MTL Explorer" in factual, descriptive references — e.g. "This dashboard is powered by MTL Explorer", "a fork of MTL Explorer", "compatible with MTL Explorer" — as long as it is truthful and does not suggest that your product is endorsed by or affiliated with the project.
  • Use the logo at its original aspect ratio in unmodified form to link back to the official project.
  • Write articles, tutorials, videos and blog posts about MTL Explorer.

You MUST NOT, without written permission

  • Use "MTL Explorer" or a confusingly similar name as (part of) the name of your own product, service, company, domain, app store listing, or package.
  • Redistribute a modified version of MTL Explorer under the name "MTL Explorer" or with the MTL Explorer logo. Modified builds must be renamed (e.g. "TrailZ", "MyFork") and their logo changed.
  • Use the Marks in a way that suggests endorsement, sponsorship or certification by the project.
  • Register the Marks (or confusingly similar variants) as your own trademark, domain, or handle.

Forks and downstream builds

If you fork MTL Explorer and distribute binaries or a hosted service:

  • Keep the copyright notices and the LICENSE / documentation/legal/NOTICE files intact.
  • Rename the product and remove the MTL Explorer logo from any user-visible surfaces (splash, about dialog, favicon, app icon, marketing).
  • You may keep a line such as "Based on MTL Explorer" in your About page.
