The appearance, position and other aspects of the link, URL, host website, or other item in which the link or URL is included may not be such as to damage or dilute the goodwill associated with FOX INSIGHT and the name and trademarks of MJFF. The appearance, position and other aspects of the link, URL, host website, or other item in which the link or URL is included may not create the false appearance that any other entity is associated with or sponsored by MJFF or FOX INSIGHT.

Any statement or materials that use the FOX INSIGHT name, brand or trademark in any manner other than providing a web link require approval by MJFF before being made publicly available.
