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.

[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}}
