Hi there,

Can we use the Okta logo? Not the actual image itself but an asset made to look like the Okta logo? Also can we use our company logo in the project if we represent a company?

Hi @abroadhurst! Thank you for double checking with us first. The use of the Okta logo and assets made to look like the Okta logo is not permitted. Please consult your company for permission to use your company logo as well. Thanks!

Hi @sigama

Thank you very much for your quick response. We were planning to do a html5 game on some of the benefits of Okta. Are we okay to reference Okta in this game?

@abroadhurst thanks for clarifying. To answer your question, our team advises against referencing Okta directly, however, you may use an imaginary/creative reference instead 😉 . The key thing here is that the resulting product should not be mistaken for an Okta endorsed product. We are excited to see what you come up with!
