There is faint remnants of a bitcoin logo on it and the words 'paper wallet' and the name of the website from which it came printed down the right hand side.

Chances are this website should NOT be trusted (anymore). Many once trusted paper wallet generators turned into a scam later on, by creating pre-determined instead of random private keys.

If it is bitcoinpaperwallet(dot)com it depends when the paper wallet was created. This site used and still uses a clever folding scheme for their paper wallet print templates.

After the original creator Canton Becker of this website sold it approx. by the end of 2018, the new owner(s) now scam you. Any paper wallet created on this current scam website uses predeterministic private keys known to the website owner even when the site pretends that you generate some sort of entropy (you don't!). Any more or less decent amount of coins will vanish from recently created paper wallets from this scam website! DO NOT USE IT, if that's not yet clear enough!

@easterklaas: you should check if the public address of the paper wallet which should also be printed on the paper wallet does still hold any coins. If it doesn't there's not much left to discuss here, except for the interesting ethical topic. As block explorers I recommend mempool.space or bitcoinexplorer.org, but others like btc.bitaps.com or blockchair.com are OK, too.
