• All references to content must be accurate, and in no way misleading.
• You must get Qualtrics’ approval before including any content, or mentioning XM Institute (or any of its employees) in any way within marketing materials such as brochures and press releases.
• You can not use any of XM Institute’s content within materials that are in any way being used to advocate the use of Qualtrics’ competitors.
• It is okay (and highly encouraged) to link to and reference XM Institute content that XM Institute has published, as long as it meets all of the other guidelines.
• If you are referencing data from a specific study, then the full name of the study must be referenced (e.g., The Global State of XM, 2020) or there must be a clear link to an XM Institute page that has the study.
• If you would like to use an XM Institute graphic, then you must maintain the copyright notice. You must get Qualtrics’ pre-approval to alter an XM Institute graphic in any way.
