1. Original Content

Content created specifically by VijayFan.in, including original articles, text, graphics, website designs, compilations, and other original material, may be protected by applicable copyright laws.

Such content may not be reproduced, republished, distributed, modified, or commercially exploited without appropriate permission, except where permitted by applicable law.

Depending on the circumstances, we may:

  • Remove or restrict access to the material
  • Temporarily disable the material while the matter is reviewed
  • Request additional information

  • Identification of the material that was removed
  • The original location of the material, where available
  • An explanation of why you believe the removal was incorrect
  • Evidence of your right or permission to use the material

6. User-Submitted Content

Users may occasionally submit photographs, articles, artwork, videos, comments, or other material to VijayFan.in.

Users are responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights or permissions to submit such material.

By submitting content, users must not knowingly provide material that:

  • Infringes another person’s copyright or intellectual property rights
  • Contains material they are not authorised to distribute
  • Impersonates another person or organisation
  • Violates applicable law
  • Contains another person’s private or confidential information without appropriate authority

VijayFan.in may remove user-submitted content when we receive a valid complaint or otherwise determine that removal is appropriate.

7. DMCA Requests

VijayFan.in is an India-based fan website and does not represent itself as a United States-based service provider subject to every provision of the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”).

However, we respect international copyright concerns and provide a voluntary process for copyright holders to report potentially infringing material.

Copyright owners may therefore use the contact procedure on this page to request review or removal of allegedly infringing material.

Where applicable law requires a specific notice or procedure, we will consider the request in accordance with the law applicable to the website and the circumstances.

8. Embedding and Third-Party Platforms

VijayFan.in may embed content hosted by third-party platforms such as YouTube or social-media services.

Embedded content may remain hosted on the original third-party platform rather than on VijayFan.in’s servers.

If you believe an embedded item violates your rights, you may also contact the platform hosting the original material.

9. Trademarks and Publicity Rights

Copyright is not the only type of intellectual property that may apply to material appearing on this website.

Names, logos, photographs, film titles, trademarks, service marks, publicity materials, and other protected elements may belong to their respective owners.

Nothing on VijayFan.in should be interpreted as a claim of ownership over third-party intellectual property or as an endorsement by the relevant rights holder.

10. Good-Faith Complaints

Please provide accurate and complete information when submitting a copyright complaint.

False, misleading, fraudulent, or bad-faith claims may cause unnecessary disruption and may have legal consequences.

We encourage rights holders to contact us first so that concerns can be reviewed and addressed efficiently.
