From TUM:

I am reaching out to you regarding one of your gists at https://gist.github.com/lnksz/51e3566af2df5c7aa678cd4dfc8305f7. The colors you posted there, labeled as "TUM web colors (from 2022)," have not been officially released nor validated for accessibility yet.
I understand that documenting the TUM Colors and adding a GIMP palette took you time and effort. Still, the TUM Colors should not be used without the official guidelines.
Thus, I kindly ask you to remove these colors from your gist. The current official colors with guidelines can be found here: https://portal.mytum.de/corporatedesign/index_html/vorlagen/index_farben.
This request comes from the TUM Web Communications Team, who advised me to contact you directly. If you have any questions regarding the colors, the rules, or the reasons behind this request, please reach out to Fiorina Sch*** at ***

So please prefer the official sources. I will still leave this community effort here as a simple community listing of colors.

Hey @lnksz ,

I just wanted to ask if you discussed the name change with the Web Communication Team and if that is sufficient in their eyes?
As the gimp palette has explicitly been mentioned I'm wondering if I should take it down, to not face any legal consequences.

As TUMs IT Management, we deffinitvely need a reference that is public.
This gist solves this need.

If the colors are bad, CCC should not use them or update the colors.
The colors come from webcomunications themselves:

Based on this gist, I created a custom color palette for LibreOffice because I use the TUM colors very often in my presentations and documents.
