Paris 2024 Host Country Usage Guide 2024

Paris 2024 Host Country Usage Guide (version February 2023) governs how French government entities may use the Olympic and Paralympic emblems. The guide covers the emblem's five constituent elements, the official gold (Pantone 4525) and Olympic black (Pantone 426) palette, Source Sans Pro typography, 20 prohibited logo alterations, protection zones (1X/2X clear space), minimum sizes, and encapsulation rules for color backgrounds. The usage chapter defines six mandatory principles and maps permitted applications (publications, dedicated web pages, temporary displays, sporting venue banners, owned events) against prohibited contexts (correspondence, co-branded stands, unlicensed merchandise). Chapter 3 covers IOC/IPC intellectual property rules and the complete list of protected visual and verbal elements.
