ROAD TOWN, Tortola, BVI – Guavaberry Media House (GBM) is raising serious concerns over the unauthorised and fraudulent use of its corporate logo on an image currently circulating through WhatsApp and other social media platforms.l
GBM has become aware of an image bearing the media house’s logo, despite the material not being produced, authorised, endorsed or published by GBM.
The media house wishes to make its position unequivocally clear: the use of GBM’s logo does not mean that content originated from, or has been verified or endorsed by, Guavaberry Media House.
GBM strongly condemns child abuse in every form and believes that matters involving the protection and safety of children must be treated with the utmost seriousness. However, the gravity of an issue does not give anyone the right to falsely associate a media organisation with content it did not create.
The unauthorised use of the GBM logo is misleading, undermines the credibility of the media house and has the potential to damage public trust in legitimate news reporting.
GBM is therefore advising members of the public to exercise caution when sharing material bearing its branding. Content attributed to GBM should be verified through its official media platforms.
The media house further warns individuals against reproducing, manipulating or attaching its logo to third-party material without permission.
GBM will not tolerate the fraudulent use of its identity, branding or reputation to give credibility to content with which it has no involvement.
The media house remains committed to responsible journalism, accurate reporting and the protection of its professional integrity.
Our logo represents our work, our standards and our credibility. It is not available for public use or misrepresentation.
