The policy is stated at http://www.lego.com/eng/info/fairplay.asp

It says:

The LEGO Logo may not be used on an Unofficial Web Site.

The bright red LEGO logo has become one of the most recognized trademarks in

The LEGO Trademarks may be used under certain Limited Circumstances on an
Unofficial Web Site.

The LEGO trademarks (but not the logo) may be used in a non-commercial manner
to refer to LEGO products or elements which are shown or discussed on a web
site, as long as the trademark is not unduly emphasized or used in a way that
can lead an observer to mistakenly believe that the site is sponsored or
authorized by the LEGO Group.
