This image is ineligible for copyright and therefore is in the public domain in the United States because it consists entirely of typefaces, individual words, handwriting, slogans, simple geometric shapes, etc. These are not eligible for copyright alone in the United States because they are not original enough or otherwise ineligible (see the Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices (Third Edition), § 313 (pages 67-84)), and thus the image is considered to be in the public domain. See WP:PD#Fonts or Wikipedia:Restricted materials for more information. Please note: The public domain status of this work is only in regards to its copyright status. There may be other intellectual property restrictions protecting this image, such as trademarks or design patents if it is a logo. |
Do not copy this file to Wikimedia Commons. This image is believed to be non-free or possibly non-free in its home country. In order for Commons to host a file, it must be free in its home country and in the United States. Some countries, particularly other countries based on common law, have a lower threshold of originality than the United States. |
