Copyright undetermined

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by an individual, company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit.

The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion.

It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate:

  • the person(s), product, event, or subject in question
  • where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it
  • on Pensapedia hosted on servers in the United States,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any Other usage of this image, on Pensapedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Pensapedia:Non-free content.

Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Pensapedia or Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.
