Available to over 1,500,000 channels, it identifies near-full reuploads of a Creator’s original videos on other YouTube channels and allows the Creator to choose an action to take: they can request the removal of the video, message the uploader of the video, or simply archive the match if they do not want to take any action. Any user with a demonstrated history of successful DMCA takedowns via our webform can apply for access using our public form.</p> <h2 class="md md-h2">Content ID</h2> <p class="md md-p"><a class="md md-a" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210201004855/https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2797370" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Content ID</a> is our solution for those with the most complex rights management needs. It is our digital fingerprinting system that allows rightholders to upload content they have exclusive rights to as reference files, and then scans videos uploaded to YouTube for matches of that content. When a user uploads content, Content ID scans against the database for matching videos. If there is a match, then an action is taken based on the predefined rules or policies that a content owner sets themselves:</p> <ul class="md md-ul"> <li class="md md-li">Block a whole video from being viewed. Creators do not receive a copyright strike if the content owner blocks a video.</li> <li class="md md-li">Monetize the video by running ads against it; in some cases sharing revenue with the uploader.</li> <li class="md md-li">Track the video's viewership statistics.</li> </ul> <p class="md md-p">In most cases, this means that rights holders don’t need to submit copyright takedowns for these videos and instead have the opportunity to monetize and run ads in exchange for the videos being live.</p> <p class="md md-p" md-node-state="empty"><div class="ytr-resources lb-padding-top-s lb-margin-top-m lb-margin-bottom-m"> <div class="ytr-resources-grid"> <div class="ytr-resources-grid__cell ytr-resources-grid__cell--span-2"> <h3 class="lb-margin-bottom-xs"> <span class="lb-font-weight-600 lb-font-subhead"> Resources </span> </h3> <ul> <li class="lb-font-paragraph lb-margin-top-s"> <div class="lb-margin-top-xs lb-font-paragraph ytr-button"> <a class="ytr-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210201004855/https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9245819?hl=en&ref_topic=9282364" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer nofollow"> Learn more about YouTube’s Copyright Management Tools <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 24 24" fill="#065fd4"><path d="M0 0h24v24H0z" fill="none"/><path d="M19 19H5V5h7V3H5a2 2 0 00-2 2v14a2 2 0 002 2h14c1.1 0 2-.9 2-2v-7h-2v7zM14 3v2h3.59l-9.83 9.83 1.41 1.41L19 6.41V10h2V3h-7z"/></svg> </a> </div> </li> <li class="lb-font-paragraph lb-margin-top-s"> <div class="lb-margin-top-xs lb-font-paragraph ytr-button"> <a class="ytr-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210201004855/https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/2814000?hl=en&p=c_strike_basics" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer nofollow"> Learn more about copyright strike <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewbox="0 0 24 24" fill="#065fd4"><path d="M0 0h24v24H0z" fill="none"/><path d="M19 19H5V5h7V3H5a2 2 0 00-2 2v14a2 2 0 002 2h14c1.1 0 2-.9 2-2v-7h-2v7zM14 3v2h3.59l-9.83 9.83 1.41 1.41L19 6.41V10h2V3h-7z"/></svg> </a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div></p> </div> <div class="ytr-article__content ytr-js-tabs-content-block lb-hide" id="enforcing-copyright"> <h2 class="md md-h2">What action does YouTube take for copyright infringement?</h2> <p class="md md-p">If a copyright owner submits a valid DMCA complaint through our webform, we take down that video and apply a <strong class="md md-strong">copyright strike</strong>.
