+
+You may use the Scrapy name and logo on a list of services, tools, or supported
+platforms, or as an identifier that a product or service is Scrapy-related,
+provided that the usage of the logo does not imply that the organization is
+official or otherwise endorsed by Scrapinghub, or by the Scrapy core team as
+representatives of the Scrapy project, and the logo acts as a hyperlink to the
+main `Scrapy project website`_ wherever technically possible.

+2. Scrapy-related software projects

+official Scrapy project software, provided that:
+
+#.  The project is distributed under the terms of an `OSI-approved open source
+    license`_; and

+
+#.  You may incorporate the Scrapy name into the name of any group or event,

+    #.  The purpose of the group or event is to educate, provide networking

+
+    #.  If the group or event requires fees for membership or attendance, it

+#.  A group or event may use a logo that incorporates the Scrapy logo by adding
+    a word or picture that identifies the locality (for example, the name of a
+    city, or a stylized image of an identifiable city landmark), audience, or
+    activities of the group or event.
