- Please do not use this template to tag non-free icons of computer software. Such items should be tagged with {{Non-free computer icon}} template.

|image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.| This template is used on approximately 159,000 pages.

Place this template in the file description pages of non-free logos. Do not use this template for copyright-free logos.
Transcluding this template in a file description page will automatically include the page in Category:All non-free logos. It may also be used to add one other category—see Category:Wikipedia images of logos for potential category options—as follows:
{{Non-free logo|Add category name here and omit the 'Category:' prefix}}
If the category name is redirected, e.g. after renaming or merging, this template will resolve the redirect i.e. put the image page in the target category rather than the redirected category.
Registered trademarks
[edit]If the image is also a registered trademark, include the regtrademark=yes parameter as shown below:
{{Non-free logo|regtrademark=yes}}
If the image is a non-registered trademark, add nonregtrademark=yes as shown below:
{{Non-free logo|nonregtrademark=yes}}
