The ´óÏóÊÓƵlogo can only be used on official communication products and websites of the agency. The logo is not in the public domain and cannot be used without specific authorization from AHRQ.

Organizations cannot display or use the logo on their publications or other communication products or web resources. This applies to grantees, contractors, and private-sector partners. Such usage would imply that the agency favors or endorses an organization, its activities, its products, its services, or its personnel, which, as a federal agency, ´óÏóÊÓƵdoes not do.

We encourage other websites to link to the ´óÏóÊÓƵ (AHRQ) as a public service to their users. We appreciate being notified when a link is established as a courtesy because the link will drive traffic to our site. All external links from commercial sites to our Federal Government site should be clearly identified as such.

Our Agency cannot endorse, nor appear to endorse, commercial services or products. Links should not be displayed in any manner that would imply such an endorsement. We prefer linkages to the homepage at: /.

If you want to link to specific items within the website, rather than the Homepage, please notify us and provide the relevant URLs.

As a Federal Government site, the ´óÏóÊÓƵ (AHRQ) has a restrictive external linking policy. Because we cannot endorse or appear to endorse commercial enterprises, our external linking policy precludes commercial domains. To be considered for an external link, the other site must meet one of the following three criteria:

1. It is an Agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services or other Government site.
2. It is a nonprofit organization that is an official partner of our Agency on a conference or special initiative.
3. It is specifically referenced within an Agency document that is posted on our website.

The ´óÏóÊÓƵLinking Policy is available at: /policy/electronic/links/index.html.

Yes, the policy pertains to all types of applications submitted to the ´óÏóÊÓƵ (AHRQ). This includes new and amended applications, large and small research projects, training and career development applications, conference applications, and investigator-initiated and solicited applications.
