Schedule takedown request and that's for cases exactly
And so you may want to give those you just said a very scary word three
Hello
Insiders welcome to another video today
We are going to talk about a feature that is just newly being released to all partners in. Ypp
So hello, my name is Barbara
Hey, I'm Cameron. I'm a product specialist in the Content ID team. Okay, so we get some content ID stuff for you
Tell us why you're here, so
As you mentioned we're really excited to announce that we just finished rolling out the copyright match tool to all creators in the YouTube Partner
Program we were having a little chat before we started filming this. I have no clue
What a copyright match tool is so please tell our insider nation what this actually is
So the tool is designed to find reuploads of your content on other channels. So it's in the new youtube studio
Yeah, when you first access the tool you're gonna have to activate it to start off
but then after that whenever you upload a video to youtube
We're gonna scan other videos uploaded to YouTube to try to see if any of them are the same or very very similar
Once we do find one of those matches
We populate that in the matches tab of the tool and then from there
It's kind of up to you to decide what happens next so you can either leave the video up
You can send a message to the other uploader or you can ask us to take the video down
Yo, why you uploaded my video man? Well, the thing that we had in mind was more
If you maybe want to suggest a collaboration in the future or something like that
Yeah, there may be some opportunities to join forces. So this doesn't have to be kind of a contentious experience
We've just gotten a lot of feedback over the years about how frustrating it can be when your upload is
Actually reloaded to a different channel without your permission
Yes. Yes. So story time with Barbara I do have you guys know if you watch these videos. I have a personal gaming channel and
Some of my videos were taken from my channel and they were up litter on somebody else's channel
They were sped up
And then those got more views and I was super bummed about that because I kind of liked those videos
So are you saying I could have if this tool that existed a couple years ago I could have used this tool
To do something with the this other channel
Exactly this yeah, it's exactly what this tool is for basically
We just know it's so hard to find these reuploads in the first place super time-consuming
Yeah, and then once you do what happens then it can be difficult to know what your next steps are. Mm-hmm
so in this particular example
what is stopping this other channel from matching me and
Either sending me a message or taking down my video look at who uploaded the video first. So that's arm wave. Sorry
That was me. That's the way I have knowing who created the video up
so if you are creating a video off of YouTube
She's really important to get the video onto YouTube as quickly as possible because we want you to be the first person who uploaded it
Yeah, that way we can know that it's your original creation. Where do I find this you said?
It's in studio beta oh, where is it?
So if you go to the channel section, it's going to be one of the options on the left hand navigation
It'll say copyright will be the title of the tab. How do you actually find matches?
We actually use the same matching technology as the Content ID tool
But we've put in a lot of work to make it both easier to use and to work specifically for YouTube creators
Surprise change in location. We got kicked out of the other meeting room
in the meantime as we were moving over so I actually
Loaded up creator insider and I pulled up the copyright match tool and it turns out we have a bunch of niches
What do I do with this list now? That's a really good question
This tool is designed basically to find potential reuploads. Yeah, but we have no way of knowing the context of that match
Yeah, so it's really really important to review each and every one really carefully and there probably a few things
That'd be helpful to keep in mind things
Like is it really your original content that matched or maybe did your video contain some stuff that you didn't necessarily?
Owner produce yourself. Yeah, or is the use that we found of that content?
Is it an ax manner that might be protected by fair use or some other relevant circumstance?
Maybe you gave permission to another creator to use some clips from your video. So these are all things to keep in mind
that may
Change your decision on what action you want to take against one of these videos. Yeah, once you do decide that, you know this video
That's within your rights to decide what happens this video. You're gonna have a couple options
So if you're cool with that reuse or you think maybe your channel can get some additional exposure from it something like that
Yeah, then you can just go ahead and leave it up. You don't have to do anything at all
You can dismiss it or send it to the archive is what it's called in the tool, okay?
If you like I mentioned earlier if you think you might have an opportunity to collaborate with this channel or something like that
You can send that creator a message in the tool and start to kick off a conversation that way
Or if you really don't want that if you're not comfortable with that video being on YouTube
Then you can send us a request and take it down. Say I click this button here that says request video removal
Well, this video be removed from YouTube right right now
We miss the one step
You also need to fill out a copyright takedown request web form a little form on the internet
We give more information and I have a couple pro tips for you. Please make sure that you fill out this form accurately and completely
Not doing so will result in delays with our processing your request and I have a little pro tip
when you are filling out your
name as the
Claimant, please. Make sure that you are using your full and complete legal name. Not your channel name we check for things like
completeness and accuracy of the request so
Sometimes the video won't be removed right away. Okay?
keep an eye open for an email that confirms that we've been able to process the request or
Maybe we might have to ask you for more information before we can take action
Okay, do you make the video unlisted or private or do anything about it? So nothing happens?
Until we can until we feel comfortable processing that takedown
Nothing will happen to the video
Okay, so make sure you keep a close eye on your email because if it really is something that you think
Infringes on your rights then we want to make sure that we take care of it as quickly as possible when I hit
Request video removal does that channel get notified in any way so they won't get notified until it's approved happen
So it's taking the next steps towards being processed. But actually I'm glad you brought that up because we have
Really cool feature that we added into this tool called a scheduled takedown request and that's for cases. Yeah, exactly. Okay
I'm glad I do
I want to schedule these things Wells for cases where a standard takedown request might feel a little bit too harsh
Because the takedown request comes in most cases along with a copyright strike
And so you may want to give that other channel a chance to address it first
If you don't want to give them that copyright strike, you just had a very scary word there
You just said strike strike is issued and the channel that
Reuploaded your content would receive a copyright strike to clarify for all of you
It's very important for you to know getting one copyright strike on your channel does not remove
Functionality of any features whatsoever. That's exactly right. Yeah, but back to the scheduled takedown request
I just want to talk through it all the way to the end
So basically what happens you send this scheduled takedown request. We send a notification to a channel that we uploaded the content
Yep, letting them know they have seven days to take the video down themselves and avoid getting a copyright strike Oh
Exactly. So it's kind of a nicer very polite exactly. I would like that
Yeah, after those seven days pass if they haven't taken any action
Then we'll go ahead and remove that video for them and they may receive that copyright strike
Okay
So it's a seven day
Schedule we give them a week to do the right thing to check their email and do the right thing. Yes
Yes taking a look back at the tool turns out
We have a handful of videos that have we have matches for in here
Do I have a way to bulk process these videos? Yes, so glad you asked
One of the coolest features about this tool actually is the ability to do
Or to take action on multiple videos at once up to 50 actually
Okay
but it was one of the biggest pieces of feedback that we got during the early stages of the rollout that
Creators had no idea that they could do this the coolest parts. They had no idea that they could do it
So we're working on an update right now to hopefully make this functionality a little bit more obvious
Yeah, and make sure our users can utilize this tool more efficiently. Okay, but you did so I asked that question on purpose
He did just show me how to use it. So I'll just talk through it in case you need to do this
So you go into your what do we call it the match tool?
you know the copyright match tool cover your match tool and
Click on pick one of the videos and click on request video removal and then you can keep clicking that button
All the way down on other videos and then it'll bulk them up and you can request video rule for all of those ones
I should mention that this bulk action option is available for the other options, too
So if you want to bulk archive you could get to do that
Well, that's it from us
