Equinix is a global brand that reaches many different audiences in many different ways. Across varying touchpoints and assets, including International Business Exchange™ (IBX®) data centers and office environments, it is imperative that we maintain a consistent and impactful representation of the brand. As such, we have created a set of brand guidelines to assist anyone involved in visually representing the Equinix brand.
Branded videos are an important part of the Equinix asset mix. To ensure brand consistency, this document provides a brand requirements checklist for all videos, an overview of available branded video assets, an overview of video style/animation/music styles, and provides video shooting best practices and considerations for video creation. Video assets are also available in our “Brand Assets: Guidelines” collection.

As part of our commitment to the security and confidentiality of our customers, it is important for all to be familiar with our company’s policy on photography within our IBX data centers and the use of photography in both Equinix and customer external marketing materials.
There are two other ways that customers/media can request photography of our sites.
For more information on the processes and procedures for on-site photography, please review our Photography Policy above which includes links to relevant permission to photograph or film and employee media release forms. If you have any questions please contact brandmarketing@equinix.com.
