DMCA and Intellectual Property Policy

Last updated: July 18, 2026

Mars Group TV respects copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual-property rights. This policy explains our standards for lawful content use and how rights owners may report material they believe infringes their rights.

Mars Group TV does not knowingly publish, promote, transmit, host, or make available material that infringes another party’s copyright or trademark rights.

We require materials used on our website and through our services to be:

  • Created and owned by Mars Group TV.
  • Properly licensed to Mars Group TV.
  • Used with the rights owner’s authorization.
  • Available in the public domain.
  • Used in another manner permitted by applicable law.

This policy applies to:

  • marsgrouptv.com.
  • Original website text and design.
  • Graphics and marketing materials.
  • Subscription and customer portals.
  • Setup instructions and support materials.
  • Material made available through Mars Group TV services.
  • Copyright and trademark complaints submitted to us.

1. Purpose and Scope

This policy describes how Mars Group TV handles allegations involving:

  • Copyright infringement.
  • Unauthorized copying or distribution.
  • Improper use of protected images, videos, text, or software.
  • Trademark or brand misuse.
  • Material incorrectly identified as infringing.
  • Repeated intellectual-property violations.

Mars Group TV reviews properly submitted complaints in good faith and may remove or restrict access to material where appropriate.

This policy does not determine ownership of disputed material. Courts and other competent authorities ultimately decide contested intellectual-property rights.

2. Ownership of Website Materials

2.1 Original Mars Group TV materials

Unless clearly identified otherwise, the following original materials are owned by, created for, or lawfully licensed to Mars Group TV:

  • Website text.
  • Original page layouts.
  • Proprietary graphics.
  • Mars Group TV brand elements.
  • Marketing copy.
  • Installation instructions.
  • Support documentation.
  • Original photographs or videos.
  • Custom website components.

These materials may not be copied, reproduced, republished, distributed, sold, scraped, or commercially exploited without written permission.

Accessing the website does not transfer ownership or grant a licence to reuse Mars Group TV materials. 

2.2 Licensed and third-party components

Not every technical or visual component appearing on a website is necessarily owned outright by the website operator.

Mars Group TV may lawfully use licensed third-party materials such as:

  • Fonts.
  • Website themes.
  • Software plugins.
  • Stock photographs.
  • Icons.
  • Payment-service marks.
  • Device or application names.
  • Technical integrations.

Those materials remain subject to the rights and licence terms of their respective owners.

Mars Group TV does not claim ownership of third-party intellectual property merely because it appears on or is referenced by the website. 

3. Copyright and Lawful-Use Commitment

3.1 No knowing infringement

Mars Group TV does not knowingly use or make available copyright-protected material without a lawful basis.

Our policy requires material to be:

  • Owned by Mars Group TV.
  • Licensed by the relevant rights owner.
  • Supplied with appropriate authorization.
  • In the public domain.
  • Subject to another lawful basis for use.

When credible evidence indicates that material may be unauthorized, Mars Group TV may investigate, restrict access, request additional documentation, or remove the material. 

3.2 Rights and licence records

Mars Group TV may maintain records supporting its lawful use of content and website assets, including:

  • Licence agreements.
  • Supplier agreements.
  • Purchase receipts.
  • Stock-media licences.
  • Creator assignments.
  • Written permissions.
  • Invoices and transaction records.
  • Correspondence with rights owners.

A complainant may be asked to provide information that allows us to compare the complaint against relevant ownership or licence records. 

3.3 No ownership claim over third-party programming

Mars Group TV does not claim copyright ownership over third-party movies, programs, broadcasts, logos, applications, or other protected works merely because they are referenced or accessible through a compatible service.

Ownership remains with the relevant creators, producers, publishers, broadcasters, licensors, or other rights holders.

References to third-party material do not transfer those rights to Mars Group TV.

4. Trademarks and Brand References

4.1 Mars Group TV branding

The Mars Group TV name, original logo, visual identity, and related brand materials may be protected by applicable trademark, unfair-competition, or other laws.

You may not use Mars Group TV branding in a way that:

  • Impersonates Mars Group TV.
  • Creates a misleading website or account.
  • Suggests a false partnership.
  • Confuses customers about the source of a service.
  • Promotes fraudulent payment or support channels.

4.2 Third-party trademarks

Third-party names, logos, devices, applications, and service marks belong to their respective owners.

Any reference to a third-party product or platform is intended only to describe matters such as:

  • Compatibility.
  • Setup requirements.
  • Payment support.
  • Technical functionality.
  • Customer instructions.

Such references do not imply sponsorship, authorization, partnership, or endorsement unless Mars Group TV expressly confirms that relationship in writing.

Mars Group TV seeks to avoid unnecessary or misleading use of third-party logos and brand elements.

5. Copyright Infringement Notices

A copyright owner or authorized representative who believes material available through Mars Group TV infringes a copyright may submit a written notice.

5.1 Information required

The notice should contain:

  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for the owner.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed.
  3. Where multiple works are involved, a representative list of those works.
  4. Identification of the allegedly infringing material.
  5. The precise location of the material, including the relevant page URL or another identifier that allows us to locate it.
  6. The complainant’s full name, postal address, telephone number, and email address.
  7. A statement that the complainant has a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or applicable law.
  8. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate.
  9. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the complainant is the copyright owner or is authorized to act for the owner.
  10. Any supporting registration, ownership, licence, or authorization information that may help us assess the complaint.

A general allegation that the entire website or service is infringing may not provide enough information for us to locate and assess the disputed material.

5.2 Complete and accurate notices

A complaint should identify specific material rather than requesting the removal of lawful, licensed, unrelated, or unidentified content.

Mars Group TV may request additional information where a notice:

  • Is incomplete.
  • Does not identify the protected work.
  • Does not provide a specific location.
  • Does not establish the complainant’s authority.
  • Concerns trademark rather than copyright.
  • Appears fraudulent or abusive.
  • Conflicts with available licence information.

Deliberately submitting false ownership information may have legal consequences.

6. Where to Send a DMCA Notice

Send copyright notices to:

Copyright Compliance Department
Mars Group TV
785 Beach St
San Francisco, CA 94143
United States

Email: Hello@marsgrouptv.com
Telephone: +1 (579) 539-0985
Website: marsgrouptv.com

Use the email subject:

DMCA Copyright Notice

Sending a notice to an unrelated support address, social-media account, payment provider, or sales representative may delay its review.

A notice sent by email should include all required information in the message or in a readable attachment.

7. Review, Removal and Notification

7.1 Initial review

After receiving a sufficiently complete notice, Mars Group TV may:

  • Confirm receipt.
  • Review the identified material.
  • Examine ownership or licence records.
  • Request clarification.
  • Contact the relevant supplier or account holder.
  • Remove or disable access to disputed material.
  • Reject a notice that does not establish a reasonable claim.
  • Preserve relevant records.

The time needed for review may depend on the complaint’s complexity and the information supplied.

7.2 Expeditious action

Where a notice satisfies the applicable legal requirements and identifies material that appears infringing, Mars Group TV will act without unreasonable delay.

Action may include:

  • Removing the material.
  • Disabling access.
  • Restricting an account.
  • Removing a link.
  • Suspending a relevant feature.
  • Contacting the party responsible for the material. 

7.3 Notification of the affected party

Where appropriate, Mars Group TV may provide the affected customer, user, supplier, or account holder with:

  • A copy or summary of the complaint.
  • The complainant’s contact information.
  • Identification of the affected material.
  • Information about submitting a counter-notification.
  • Notice of account restrictions.

Information may be withheld where disclosure is prohibited by law or creates a credible security risk. 

8. Counter-Notifications

A person who believes material was removed or restricted because of a mistake or misidentification may submit a counter-notification. 

8.1 Information required

A counter-notification should include:

  1. The sender’s physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled.
  3. The location where the material appeared before removal.
  4. A statement under penalty of perjury that the sender has a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled because of a mistake or misidentification.
  5. The sender’s full name, address, telephone number, and email address.
  6. Consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate United States federal district court.
  7. If the sender is outside the United States, consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court covering Mars Group TV’s location.
  8. A statement agreeing to accept service of process from the original complainant or the complainant’s authorized representative.

Send the counter-notification using the subject:

DMCA Counter-Notification 

8.2 Restoration of material

After receiving a valid counter-notification, Mars Group TV may provide a copy to the original complainant.

Where Section 512 applies, removed material may be restored within the legally applicable period unless the original complainant informs us that legal proceedings have been filed seeking to restrain the disputed activity.

Submitting a counter-notification does not guarantee restoration where:

  • The material independently violates our Terms of Service.
  • Another valid legal reason supports removal.
  • The account presents a security or fraud risk.
  • Restoration is prohibited by law.
  • Mars Group TV lacks a lawful basis to make the material available.

9. Repeat-Infringer Policy

Mars Group TV does not permit repeated or deliberate intellectual-property infringement.

Where appropriate, Mars Group TV may restrict or terminate accounts associated with:

  • Multiple valid infringement notices.
  • Repeated unauthorized distribution.
  • Deliberate evasion of prior restrictions.
  • Resale of unauthorized access.
  • Submission of material after prior removal.
  • Serious or intentional infringement.
  • Failure to provide requested rights documentation.

We assess cases individually and may consider:

  • The number and credibility of notices.
  • Whether notices concern the same material.
  • Available licence records.
  • Counter-notifications.
  • Court orders or legal decisions.
  • Evidence of deliberate misconduct.
  • The customer’s response and cooperation.

Mars Group TV may take immediate action in serious cases without waiting for repeated notices.

10. Trademark and Brand Complaints

The DMCA notice-and-takedown process addresses copyright. Trademark concerns should be submitted separately.

A trademark complaint should include:

  • The complainant’s name and contact information.
  • Identification of the trademark owner.
  • The trademark or service mark at issue.
  • Registration details, where applicable.
  • The country or jurisdiction of protection.
  • The goods or services associated with the mark.
  • The exact URL or location of the disputed use.
  • An explanation of why the use is unauthorized or confusing.
  • Evidence that the complainant is the owner or authorized representative.
  • A good-faith statement that the complaint is accurate.
  • A physical or electronic signature.

Use the email subject:

Trademark Complaint

Mars Group TV may remove, modify, or restrict material that creates a credible risk of:

  • Customer confusion.
  • Brand impersonation.
  • False affiliation.
  • Counterfeit activity.
  • Fraudulent support or payment activity.

A trademark complaint should not be submitted as a DMCA notice unless it also involves a genuine copyright claim. 

11. False or Abusive Complaints

Do not submit a notice or counter-notification containing information you know is false.

Prohibited conduct includes:

  • Pretending to own rights you do not own.
  • Claiming authority you do not have.
  • Misidentifying licensed material as unauthorized.
  • Using the process to silence criticism.
  • Attempting to remove a competitor’s lawful content.
  • Submitting automated notices without reviewing the identified material.
  • Altering ownership documents.
  • Repeatedly resubmitting a rejected claim without new evidence.

Mars Group TV may reject abusive complaints and preserve relevant records.

Where appropriate, we may report suspected fraud, impersonation, or unlawful conduct to a payment provider, platform, regulator, rights owner, or law-enforcement authority. 

12. No Admission of Liability

Removing, restricting, restoring, or retaining material does not constitute:

  • An admission of infringement.
  • A declaration of ownership.
  • A waiver of legal rights.
  • Acceptance of every allegation in a notice.
  • A final legal determination.

Mars Group TV may take temporary action while investigating a complaint.

We reserve the right to remove material that violates our Terms of Service even where the material does not infringe copyright.

We may also decline to remove material where credible evidence establishes ownership, authorization, licensing, public-domain status, or another lawful basis.

13. International Complaints

Mars Group TV may consider intellectual-property complaints submitted under laws outside the United States.

International complainants should provide:

  • The country where protection is claimed.
  • The applicable registration or ownership information.
  • The specific material involved.
  • The precise website or service location.
  • An explanation of the rights allegedly violated.
  • Evidence of authority to act.

We may apply United States law, applicable local law, contractual requirements, or another appropriate process depending on the complaint and service location.

  • Its content procedures change.
  • New reporting methods become available.
  • Legal requirements change.
