    3434 Use at an academic institution such as schools, colleges and universities by both teachers and students is covered. So in addition to the personal use which is always permitted, academic institutions may also choose to roll out the software in an automated way to make it available to its students and personnel.

    36  7. '''Which guidelines apply to the use of the name ''!VirtualBox''?'''
    37 
    38  The term ''!VirtualBox'' has been registered by !InnoTek as a trademark. It may be freely used together with the products available from this web site. However, if you choose to ship custom binaries and/or source code revisions of the product, !InnoTek reserves the right to deny use of the trademark ''!VirtualBox''. This might seem rather strict but we believe that it is important to avoid any kind of confusion arising from multiple versions of the same product coming from different sources.

    40  8. '''What about software patents?'''
    41 
    42  !InnoTek offers !VirtualBox free of charge to anyone who finds it useful. The only restrictions we impose are those of either the GPL or our respective commercial licenses -- whichever you choose. This also means that we will not restrict your use of the product by means of patents. However, should someone attempt to abuse the product, e.g. by violating the GPL or our commercial license, we will make use of our intellectual property rights to protect !VirtualBox.

    44  9. '''Can I redistribute the !VirtualBox binaries?'''
     36 7. '''Can I redistribute the !VirtualBox binaries?'''
    4537
    4638 No. The [wiki:"VirtualBox PUEL" Personal Use and Evaluation License] allows you to download the !VirtualBox binaries for personal and academic use and for evaluation, but it does not give you the right to redistribute these binaries. So you may not put them onto your own websites or other mirrors. We do this because we would presently like to keep track of how many people are downloading these binaries. The fact that we also provide a !BitTorrent tracker does not change this policy.
     
    4840 This restriction does not, of course, apply to the Open Source Edition (OSE), as the GPL does permit redistribution of source and binaries, provided that you adhere to the other terms and conditions of the GPL.
