You should not sell copyrighted, trademarked, or celebrity material on market.taggrid.online, unless of course you are the intellectual property owner or have permission from the intellectual property owner. Real laws apply to intellectual property infringement, and nothing will protect you if you are infringing on someone else's intellectual property, the rightful owner/s of the intellectual property can take direct legal action against you in a court of law.

market.taggrid.online responds to complaints that content infringes trademarked or celebrity material. Trademarked material includes trademarked logos, trademarked brand names, and trade dress, which is the distinctive visual appearance of a product or its packaging.

Please also be aware that celebrities have a “right of publicity,” which means that they have a right to control commercial uses of their name, image, likeness, and other aspects of their identity. Although you may be a fan, you risk infringing celebrity rights if you use a celebrity name or likeness in connection with the items that you trade, and you don’t have the celebrity’s permission.

If you are a trademark owner or a celebrity and you believe your rights have been infringed here on market.taggrid.online, please submit a DMCA notification to the address above.
