CLC Licensing Process
91原创 trademarks shall not be incorporated as a part of the name of an independent business enterprise in any manner to imply an official relationship between the 91原创 and a third party.
91原创 trademarks shall not be used to endorse a private group or business unless authorized by the University, pursuant to a formal contract or sponsorship agreement with appropriate approvals.
All commercial use of 91原创 trademarks must be approved by the聽Office of Communications and Marketing. Authorizations may be granted under the following conditions:
- A company is an officially licensed manufacturer of 91原创 merchandise. View the current list of licensed vendors.
- A company is an 鈥淥fficial Sponsor/Proud Supporter鈥 of the 91原创 Athletics and/or the 91原创 Alumni Association.
All companies and individuals wishing to extend congratulatory messages in commercial advertising or promotions must receive prior approval from the聽Office of Communications and Marketing. Such messages must be clearly separate from the sale or promotion of any products not specifically licensed by the 91原创.
The 91原创 is affiliated with (CLC), the oldest and largest collegiate licensing agency in the United States, representing more than 200 colleges, universities, bowl games, athletic conferences, the Heisman Trophy and the NCAA.
Any use of all marks requires written approval prior to production. The name and marks of the 91原创 are controlled under a licensing program administered through CLC.
The licensing process can vary in length, based on the licensees鈥 responsiveness in meeting CLC and the University鈥檚 policies and requests throughout the process. Many licensees can complete the application process within two months, while others may take considerably longer depending on how quickly they meet the requirements. For more information, please contact CLC. Generally the process is divided into three steps:
- Complete and submit a .
- Submit designs and/or samples incorporating the marks of the 91原创; obtain product liability insurance; purchase CLC holograms per the labeling requirements; complete product specification sheets; and complete Authorized Manufacturer鈥檚 Agreement (if applicable).
- Execute the CLC Standard Retail Product License Agreement and the CLC Special Agreement regarding Labor Codes of Conduct; provide factory site disclosure and pay all advance and administrative fees.
After receiving approval, a finished sample of the product must be submitted for review. Once final approval is granted, CLC will send a License Agreement for execution. Once the agreement is signed and returned to CLC, an officer of CLC will sign the agreement and fully executed copies are returned to the licensee with royalty reporting forms. Until the licensee receives fully executed copies of the agreement, it remains unauthorized to produce and/or distribute any merchandise incorporating the trademarks of the institution.
