<h2>How can I use the name "Tor"?</h2>
<p>The Tor Project encourages developers to use the name Tor in ways that
do not confuse the public about the source of anonymity software and
services. If you are building open-source non-commercial software or
services that incorporate or work with The Tor Project's code, you may
use the name “Tor” in an accurate description of your work. We ask you
to include a link to the official Tor website
<a href="https://www.torproject.org/">https://www.torproject.org/</a> so users can verify the original source of
Tor for themselves, and a note indicating that your project is not
sponsored by The Tor Project. For example, “This product is produced
independently from the Tor® anonymity software and carries no guarantee
from The Tor Project about quality, suitability or anything else.”</p>

can use items that look like the Tor onion logo to illustrate a point
(e.g. an exploded onion with layers, for instance), so long as they're
not used as logos in ways that would confuse people.</p>
