Use of Trademarked Names
- With the first use of a trademarked product name or term, you must call it by its proper name and use a ™ or ® after it.
- Don't use Sling as a verb.
- Do not refer to any of our products in a plural fashion. It is never Slingboxes, but Slingbox devices instead.
- Do not make product names possessive. Instead of "the Slingbox's design," say "the design of the Slingbox."
- Use an article (the, a) before product names.
