Using, without the written consent of the University of Oregon granted through a trademark licensing agreement, any reproduction, counterfeit, copy, or colorable imitation of a mark registered under trade regulation and practices used in connection with the sale, offering for sale, or advertising of any goods or services on or in connection with which such use is likely to cause confusion or mistake or to deceive as to the source of origin of such goods or services is prohibited by law.
If your intent is to imply a connection with the University of Oregon by using graphics or phrases confusingly similar to university marks, it is likely that you are infringing on our rights.
The Oregon Duck
Unlike all other UO trademarks, Disney Enterprises, Inc. owns the university’s sports mascot, the Oregon Duck. Because of this, the program is licensed separately from other UO trademarks and according to very strict guidelines. Currently, licensing applications to use this mascot and its images are unavailable.
