"Freon" is a trademark name of the the DuPont Corporation for a series of CFC and HFC refrigerants manufactured and marketed by them - thus, it's only actually Freon if it's manufactured by them and marketed by that name.

They all use some form of refrigerant, but not all of them use CFC or HFC refrigerants. There are refrigeration units which use straight ammonia, for example.
