Description

English: Swastika under section sign. This image is primarily for the {{Nazi symbol}}, {{Non Falungong swastikas}}, and {{Non Nazi swastikas}} legal disclaimer template (as shown below).

Legal disclaimer
This image shows (or resembles) a symbol that was used by the National Socialist (NSDAP/Nazi) government of Germany or an organization closely associated to it, or another party which has been banned by the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany.

The use of insignia of organizations that have been banned in Germany (like the Nazi swastika or the arrow cross) may also be illegal in Austria, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, France, Brazil, Israel, Ukraine, Russia and other countries, depending on context. In Germany, the applicable law is paragraph 86a of the criminal code (StGB), in Poland – Art. 256 of the criminal code (Dz.U. 1997 nr 88 poz. 553).

Legal disclaimer
This image of a swastika resembles the swastika that was used by the Falun Gong or an organization closely associated to it, or another group which has been banned by the State Administration for Religious Affairs or General Administration of Sport of China.

The use of insignia similar to organizations that have been banned in Mainland China may also be illegal in Russia and other countries, depending on context.

This ban, however, does not apply to swastikas that are of a religious nature, including ones used by Jainism, Hinduism, and Buddhism.
