Using SETAC Trademarks: Name, Acronym, Logo, and Slogan
The Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) is known for
its tripartite, multidisciplinary governance and activities. The trademarked name,
acronym, and logo, and the slogan Environmental Quality Through Science are
symbols that identify and distinguish the Society’s products and events and
represent its value and reputation. They are vital to the clear and unmistakable
recognition of SETAC. Misusing a trademark can cause confusion, at best, and at
worst, can jeopardize the brand itself1.
In order to provide the best and most consistent recognition of SETAC and its
trademarks, the Society provides these guidelines. As a member of SETAC, you can
help strengthen and protect these visual marks of the Society, as well as ensuring the
continuation of the SETAC brand as it expands around the globe and across scientific
disciplines.
SETAC trademarks identify the Society in an immediately recognizable and
unique manner. The SETAC World Council is the sole authority for decisions
on the use of SETAC trademarks.

Who May Use SETAC Trademarks
The governance structure of SETAC embraces:
• A global World Council,
• 5 geographic units (GUs),
• Regional chapters and branches within each GU, and
• Committees at the GU and global levels.
Each of these governance structures may use SETAC trademarks on official SETAC
business stationery, on the structure’s web site or page, or for the promotion of SETAC
events, programs, or services, with the following caveats:
1. SETAC trademarks may not be incorporated into another logo or trademark.
2. SETAC trademarks may not be used to endorse or appear to endorse non-SETAC works,
products, or services unless permission to do so is obtained in advance from the
SETAC World Council.
3. SETAC trademarks may not be translated or otherwise modified.
4. The SETAC logo may not be broken into parts, separated into text and graphics,
or otherwise modified.
5. Any print or electronic materials that promote SETAC works, products, or services
must contain the SETAC name and logo.
If there is any doubt whether a particular use of a SETAC trademark is appropriate, the
SWC must be consulted, allowing sufficient time for the request to be considered and
a decision made.

The Acronym
The acronym for the Society name must be used exactly as the trademark specifies:
SETAC®
The letters of the acronym may not be altered to reflect a translation of the Society name.
MisuseSTQA for Sociedad de Toxicologia y Quimica Ambiental
The acronym should be used consistently in SETAC and GU-level annual meeting URLs and in staff email
addresses so that anyone can easily and accurately guess at the address of a meeting website or a SETAC staff
member, even when the address is not immediately available to them, for example:
• longbeach.setac.org or glasgow.setac.org or lusaka.setac.org
• [email protected] or [email protected]
NOTE: The original domain of a meeting website does not have to contain setac.org, but the more recognizable setac.org
subdomain makes it easier for users to find the meeting site simply by knowing the city in which the meeting takes place.
The acronym may not be used in the email address of a non-staff member.
The use of the acronym to identify a social media entity must be consistent with SETAC Social Media Policy.

The Slogan
The slogan, like the Society name and acronym, may only be published in English, the
language in which it is trademarked.
Environmental Quality Through Science®
The slogan should be used on publications of the global SETAC organization, such as
the Annual Report and books, and on the annual meeting programs of geographic units.

The Logo
As with the other SETAC trademarks, in order to protect this most-recognizable
symbol of the Society, we must use it consistently and accurately.
Three characteristics are vital to such use:
1. Color–full color features Pantone 286 U, 286 U (30% tint), and 338 U
2. Space–the SETAC logo must always be surrounded on all four sides by a clear space of at least
1X, where X equals the cap height of “SETAC” (see diagram)
3. Size–no smaller than 75 pixels (on screen) high, or .75 inches or 20 millimeters high (in print)

examples are intended to help you avoid misusing the logo.

Forword
Dear Colleagues,
I have the singular pleasure of writing the fore-word to this maiden edition of our newsletter. SETAC Africa is the youngest Geographic Unit (GU) in the global SETAC family. We were very pleased when SETAC Africa was declared an independent GU at the SETAC World conference in Berlin, in May 2012. Until then, we had been a branch under SETAC Europe. This achievement did not come about overnight. It is as a result of the hard work and dedica-tion of many individuals in Africa, Europe and the US, as well as institu-tional support at all levels in SETAC to whom we are very grateful.
This newsletter is one of a number of initiatives of the SETAC Africa coun-cil. It is intended to provide a forum for discussions and communication of information amongst all SETAC Africa members. This inaugural issue con-tains a very interesting collection of articles. I encourage all SETAC Africa members to read this newsletter in its entirety to get more information. This newsletter will be published quarterly and all members are also en-couraged to contribute articles to it. I look forward to getting lots of feed-back and contributions from all of you.
Best Wishes,
Dr Patricia Asanga Fai
