The nodegoat trademark may only be used with the correct form of notice of registration. The correct notice to be used in association with trademarks depends on whether or not the mark is registered in the applicable jurisdiction.

If it is registered in the applicable jurisdiction, the ® should be used. Where a trademark is used more than once in a single display, the notice should be placed at the first or most prominent use of the trademark.

The following notice should appear in the document in which the nodegoat trademark is used: "nodegoat is a trademark of LAB1100".
