Policy
Any variation on the Be Free in God logo must be avoided.
Intent
To protect the unifying function and legal identity of the Be Free in God.
Background
The logo has been in use for multiple purposes and in various forms. It is the intent of the Executive Leadership to standardize use of the Be Free in God logo as defined here.
Be Free in God Brand
Be Free in God's logo represents a "brand" through which the organization is known. As such, it serves a unifying function by which all aspects of the organization become easily recognizable to the public and to our members. Establishing and sustaining a strong brand is essential if we are to think, act and be recognized as an organization. It is essential that our brand be strong, differentiating and consistent around the world creating a strong, positive awareness in the minds of everyone.
To build a clear image of our organization, we need to present consistent messages to the market. To accomplish our statement, we need:
One Name
Be Free in God's venues will all do business under the name - Be Free in God - wherever it is legally possible.
One Organization
We will integrate our venues into a single organization.
One Voice
To build a clear image in the minds of our targets, we must give consistent messages about who we are, how we work and the value we demonstrate. This is our brand positioning.
One Look
We will give all our communication a consistent look that communicates our brand values.
Communicating our brand consistently in all our external communications and living it in our behavior will create the most favorable image. A better-known name and a higher profile will make it easier to recruit leaders, directors, champions, partners, sponsors and high quality people who share our beliefs and characteristics.
Be Free in God Logo
The logo upon which we build our brand consists of four elements:
a. the design,
b. the color,
c. the tagline and
d. the typeface.
Policy
Any variation on the logo must be avoided, as this would reduce the unifying function of the brand. Changes to the logo might also have an affect on the legal standing of the logo.
Use of the Logo
All materials prepared by Be Free in God or any of its member venues for presentation in a public forum, including sites, brochures and flyers, and official organization business cards, should present the Be Free in God logo in its approved form.
Black and White Logo
When used for presentation in a black and white document format, it is permissible for the Be Free in God logo to be implemented in a grey-scale version, and in a two-color format for controlling expenses in publications. The logo is available in JPEG, PNG and GIF format for site and document use, and in an EPS format for professional printing. The logo is also available in 4-color format, in 2-color format for reduced printing cost, and in gray-scale for black and white printing. The high-resolution version of the logo is preferred for use whenever possible.

Additional text and/or graphics may be used to differentiate venue materials, but the official Be Free in God logo should always be used in addition to any venue designation including use in any official publication and on venue sites.
