+                <p>The GrapheneOS name and logo are trademarks of the GrapheneOS project. These
+                marks are the process of being formally registered in Canada and the US. In the
+                meantime, they're protected as unregistered trademarks.</p>
+
+                <p>Derivatives of GrapheneOS that are being published/redistributed should replace
+                the GrapheneOS branding with their own. It needs to be clear to users that it's a
+                distinct OS based on GrapheneOS. Forks of GrapheneOS are not GrapheneOS itself and
+                should not be presented that way.</p>
+
+                <p>Only unofficial builds of the official GrapheneOS sources should be referred to
+                as unofficial builds. An unofficial build is a build of the official GrapheneOS
+                sources with the update server URL changed to another server. A project making
+                modifications beyond that isn't simply an unofficial build and should be presented
+                as a distinct OS based on GrapheneOS.</p>
