Policies

Be professional. Signatures may not include quotations, political, philosophical statements or similar.
Be relevant. A physical address is needed only if you receive frequent guests. A fax number is needed only rarely. An email listing is redundant.
Use only the brand logo. No other icons or images are allowed. 
Exclude signatures or use a short alternate version without the brand logo for internal use, replies, and forwards.
Link to the Á¿×Ó×ÊÔ´ domains. Maintain biographical information, including new titles or promotions, research, and publications, on your area’s Á¿×Ó×ÊÔ´ web page. Keep redirects short by using the phrases “About me,” “My research,” and “My publications.”
