You grant us, and those who receive the Contribution directly or indirectly from Us, a perpetual, worldwide,
non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, irrevocable patent license under Your patent claims (but only to the extent

**2.3. No right to use trademarks**

2.3.1. Neither this Agreement nor your Contribution to the Project grants You any right, title or interest in any
“Ocado” logos, trade names or the trademark “Ocado” or any other trademarks or domain names owned by Ocado Innovation

2.3.2. You must not distribute any modification of this Project using the trademark “Ocado”.

any member of its group.

4.2. If You wish to disclose publicly that You have contributed to the Project (e.g. on a website, on social media, in a
curriculum vitae, in interviews etc.) You agree that You will not do this unless You have received confirmation from Us
