Policy Essentials
- You must have legitimate access to the Gartner content you are quoting (for example, as an entitled client, or via a reprint that is in the public domain) to receive approval.
- Quotes and/or excerpts must be attributed to research content published on gartner.com or to a Gartner event presentation. "Custom analyst quotes" are not permitted.
- Only quote from research that is less than 12 months old or that is labeled by Gartner "Gartner Foundational". Draft materials may not be quoted.
- All excerpts must be included verbatim, in their entirety, and appear accurately with all relevant context. Paraphrasing is not allowed. Quotes must include the full sentence you wish to excerpt, or if in bullet form, the complete thought.
- Gartner research may not be used to endorse a vendor, product or service, or to criticize a vendor's competitor.
- Gartner content may be shown alongside our competitors' only when it is used for informational purposes – never for purely promotional ones. So, for example, a marketing campaign promoting analyst firms that have rated your product well will not be approved. But a simple listing of the source reports that rate your product well with links to these reports is OK. There is a fine line here, so if you would like us to review anything in early draft form, please send it our way.
- No company-specific excerpts are permitted, except for Market Analysis and Statistics (see Section 3.3). For these two content types, comparisons between vendor organizations must include at least three vendors (that is, no one-to-one comparisons).
- No more than 10% of a Gartner research document may be excerpted for use in any client document. In addition, no more than 30% of the client document may consist of Gartner research.
- Always give proper attribution for excerpts to the original research source.
- Gartner references may not appear in corporate boilerplates or signatures. “Gartner” may appear in the title/sub-title of a press release, newsletter, the subject line of an email distribution, except for the following formats: "Gartner Says" or "According to Gartner". Titles and subjects may not imply that Gartner is providing an endorsement; it must be clear what they are based on (e.g. research document type, Gartner event)
- You may not use the "About Gartner" boilerplate.
