9. USE OF THE TÜV SÜD PSB CERTIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION MARKS
(“COLLECTIVELY THE MARKS”)
9.1 The issue of the Certificate entitles the company to use the relevant TÜV SÜD PSB certification Mark(s) in accordance with the provisions set out therein. If the Certificate bears an accreditation Mark, or the company has been advised that TÜV SÜD PSB is accredited for the process(es) certified, then the appropriate accreditation Mark(s) may be used together with the relevant TÜV SÜD PSB certification Mark(s).
9.2 The TÜV SÜD PSB certification Mark shall only be used by the certified company and shall always be used in conjunction with the company’s name, certificate number and in connection with the process(es) listed in the Certificate. A copy of the use of the TÜV SÜD PSB certification Mark(s) and accreditation Marks shall be provided upon registration of the Certificate.
9.3 The TÜV SÜD PSB certification Mark(s) and accreditation Marks may be used on letterheads of the company, in advertisements and materials used for advertising and promotion of the company. The company shall identify the processes to which the Certificate applies when using the Marks in a context where the scope of the certification is in doubt.
9.4 The Marks shall not be directly applied on the company’s product and its packaging or be associated with the company’s product in such a way as to imply that the product itself is certified by TÜV SÜD PSB.
9.5 The company shall discontinue immediately the use of the Marks upon expiry or revocation of the Certificate, or for whatever reason(s) as decided by TÜV SÜD PSB.
9.6 All materials including but not limited to letterheads and advertisement brochures containing the Marks shall be submitted for TÜV SÜD PSB’s written approval prior to their use and or release to the public.
