Trademark Policy

Dear Grafana Friends.

First of all i am using grafana for several years now and really love it. Thumbs up for the great work.

Im my free time i sm also working with electronics and made an (paid) online course teaching people on how to setup their own solar system. I also want to show them how to visualize performance data of their solar system in grafana. So i did read your trademark policy but i do not understand it fully. I went to the contact form to understand how i am allowed to show screencasts of me showing other people on how to setup grafana but could not be helped there.

Can someone give me contact details to a person responsible that i can talk to and get permission for teaching on how to use grafana in my course?

Hi!

For a full legal analysis, you need to ask a lawyer in your local jurisdiction.

That being said, it is my understanding that factual usage of the Grafana trademark is allowed. People commonly show Grafana in recordings for demo and teaching, and as long as you’re not misrepresenting as speaking for Grafana, we are usually happy to see this content as it helps more people learn.

In summary: For teaching and educational videos you do not need permission from us.

Feel free to share any public links if you have them, we always like seeing what people do with our stuff.
