Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. Certain commercial use of this image may also be trademark infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Logos.

Non-free / fair use media rationale for PricewaterhouseCoopers
Description	Historic logo
Source	Old documentation
Article	PricewaterhouseCoopers
Portion used	Logo, the entire work is being used
Low resolution?	Low 103 × 51 pixel, file size: 2 KB, MIME type: image/gif
Purpose of use	In History section as primary means of visual identification of one of the main predecessor organisations of the topic of the article
Replaceable?	Corporate logo, there is obviously no such thing as a "free" version of it

[edit] Fair use rationale

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

It is a low resolution copy of a logo.
The image is only a small portion of the commercial product.
The use of the logo will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to sell their products or services.
It illustrates educational articles about the organization represented by the logo.
The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of topics in the article.
It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value. A free image could not be created to replace it without itself being a derivative work.
