You are either allowed to post your original content, or content you have been authorised to use. One of the ways YouTube aims at enforcing its copyright policy is through Content ID.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content ID is a system wherein videos posted by other creators are compared to the videos submitted by the copyright owners. It allows creators to keep a track of and manage their content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube Content ID\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9g2U12SsRns?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The basic parameters that qualifies one\u2019s content for Content ID are:-<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Owning exclusive rights to the video<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content being distinct<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basically, the videos uploaded are scanned against the content of the creator.

That video gets a Content ID claim.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content ID claim and copyright takedown are different. Copyright takedown will get your channel a copyright strike. On the other hand, Content ID claim is not as serious.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upon receiving a Content ID claim, your video will either be blocked in some territories, or it will be monetized. Ads will be placed in your video and the revenue earned from those ads will go to the copyright owner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>How do you deal with a Content ID claim?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are primarily 2 ways by which you can deal with a Content ID claim.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing the part that has been claimed by the copyright holder.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In case of an audio claim, either mute or replace the song.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flintzy.com\/blog\/2021\/12\/07\/copyright-takedown-vs-content-id-claim-explained-for-beginners\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">difference between Content ID Claim and copyright takedown<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping up with all the copyright policies of YouTube can be difficult.
