Intellectual Property Policy
Effective Date: 12/26/2025
Welcome to WitchesMarketplace.com (“WMP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). This Intellectual Property Policy explains how intellectual property is owned, used, protected, and respected on our platform. By using WMP as a buyer, vendor, or visitor, you agree to the terms outlined below.
Intellectual Property — The Short Version
Here’s the simple truth:
WMP owns the platform — our branding, website design, text, and visuals are protected.
Vendors own their work — your products, art, photos, and descriptions remain yours.
By listing on WMP, vendors allow us to display and promote their content to help sell it.
Don’t sell or upload stolen, copied, or unlicensed work. We will remove it.
If your intellectual property is being used without permission, tell us — we’ll handle it.
This policy exists to protect creators, respect original work, and keep Witches Marketplace fair for everyone.
1. Ownership of Platform Content
All content created, owned, or published by WMP, including but not limited to:
Website design and layout
Logos, brand marks, badges, and seals
Text, graphics, icons, imagery, and templates
Original copy, guides, and educational materials, is the exclusive intellectual property of WitchesMarketplace.com and/or its licensors.
You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, or exploit any WMP content without prior written permission.
2. Vendor Intellectual Property
Vendors retain full ownership of the intellectual property they upload or sell on WMP, including:
Product designs
Artwork, photography, and descriptions
Branding, logos, and shop names
Digital or physical creations
By listing products on WMP, vendors grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use their submitted content solely for platform operations, including:
Displaying products and shop pages
Marketing, promotions, and social media features
Site functionality and search visibility
This license ends when the vendor removes their content or closes their shop, except where required for legal or operational reasons.
3. Prohibited Content & Infringement
Vendors may not upload or sell content that:
Infringes on another person’s copyright, trademark, or patent
Uses copyrighted characters, logos, or imagery without permission
Replicates or closely imitates another creator’s protected work
Violates licensing terms or intellectual property laws
WMP reserves the right to remove any content believed to violate intellectual property rights with or without notice.

False or bad-faith claims may result in account action.
5. Counter-Notices
If a vendor believes their content was removed in error, they may submit a counter-notice with supporting documentation. WMP will review the claim and take appropriate action based on applicable laws.
6. Trademarks
“WitchesMarketplace,” associated logos, slogans, and brand elements are trademarks of WMP and may not be used without express written permission.
Vendor trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.
7. Platform Protection & Enforcement
WMP takes intellectual property seriously. We reserve the right to:
Suspend or terminate repeat infringers
