7. Certification
a. BSI Certificate – When you have been successful following a certification assessment, we shall provide a written scope of certification describing your assessed activities and their locations. You will receive a BSI certificate as evidence of your successful certification. You may then display the certificate and the BSI Certification Mark, but you must do so in compliance with the terms of our Contract (and in particular with the requirements set out in “How to Display the Certification Mark”).
b. Ownership of BSI certificate and BSI Certification Mark – the BSI certificate (which may be in electronic form) and the right to use the BSI Certification Mark shall remain our property. This means that you may not transfer any rights under our Contract to anyone else. You may also not charge or license them in favour of someone else in any way. You may not tamper with the content or change the appearance of the certificate or the BSI Certification Mark.
c. Our right to refuse to issue a certificate, or to revoke a certificate that has been issued – we may at any time refuse to issue a certificate or revoke an issued certificate if, in our reasonable opinion, you do not meet, or fail to continue to meet, the relevant standard, or if you breach any term of our Contract (which includes the content of “How to display the BSI Certification Mark”). If we do revoke a certificate that has already been issued to you, you will be required to return the certificate, the assessment reports and any other papers that may have been given to you with the certificate.
