(Note mixed public/private lists)

Yes, from your description your use of the Apache Kafka logo sounds
fine, as long as you are otherwise complying with the ASF trademark
policy.  In particular, we have a closely related FAQ:

  https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/faq/#integrateswith

Using an Apache product logo in the GUI of your software product or
service *in the context of a list of different software products or
formats you integrate with* is almost always nominative use, and
therefore fine.  Here, while it's only a partial screenshot, the use of
the Apache Kafka logo is clearly referring to our Apache Kafka software
product or the files that it works with, which is OK.

Thanks for taking the time to respect Apache brands!
