HACC Logo Guidelines

The HACC logo is protected by Australia-wide copyright and unauthorised use is not permitted. A sub-licensing process is in place to enable HACC-funded agencies to use the logo in order to identify HACC-funded initiatives. The HACC logo is used on office stationery, publications, promotional materials and signage to recognise the HACC funding source.

HACC-funded vehicles are identified by the use of official HACC car decals ( stickers) available free from the HACC Resource Unit. A logo sublicence is not required to use HACC stickers on official HACC vehicles.

Queensland Health is licensed to the Commonwealth to use the HACC logo and issue sub-licences to approved applicants. Agencies wishing to obtain a sub-licence to use the HACC logo therefore need to apply to the Media & Communications Officer, who manages the HACC logo sub-licensing process for Queensland service providers.

Steps to obtaining a logo sub-licence

1. Obtain a logo application form (see link below)

2. Complete, sign and date the form and fax or mail it to:
Media & Communications Officer, HACC Resource Unit, Chermside Community Health Centre, The Prince Charles Hospital, Rode Road, CHERMSIDE QLD 4032. Fax: 3630 5285

3. On approval, two copies of the sub-licensing Deed of Agreement are sent to the applicant for signature by two authorised officials.

4. Applicant returns the signed Deeds to the Media & Communications Officer.

5.Media & Communications Officer arranges for the Deeds to be executed in Corporate Office, Queensland Health

6. One signed copy of the Deed goes to the Department's legal document register

7. The second signed copy is returned to the applicant

8. The HACC logo (black and coloured versions) and the protocols for logo use are sent to the applicant by email or on CD.

Tips for applicants

· The Deed of Agreement will cover only the uses specified in your application. To save having to reapply for another Deed of Agreement at some future date, where possible include on the application form all present and possible future uses your agency may have for the logo.
· If your agency auspices more than one HACC-funded service, include these in the one application. Applying for one "corporate" Deed of Agreement covering all your HACC services, and all proposed logo uses, is a better option than lodging several separate applications, resulting in multiple Deeds of Agreement!
