YOUTUBE & FACEBOOK COPYRIGHT CLAIMS

Youtube & Facebook uses recognition software that scans music in your video to see if you have used copyrighted material. We do not register our tracks in this system so if you have a claim; it is either a “false positive” (the software is wrong) or someone is trying to claim our music as theirs.

Please do the following:

  • Contest the Claim with YouTube/Facebook. Do not remove your video. If you receive a warning from Facebook/Instagram telling that your video is muted because you may be using copyrighted content, please click on “Restore Audio”.
  • When Youtube ask you for a reason check: “I have a license or written permission from the proper rights holder to use this material”.
  • In the comments put a link where you have downloaded the track.
  • Contact us with all the details about the claim: track title and composer name. This way we can do something from our side.

FACEBOOK

If using music on Facebook videos you cannot register videos to the Facebook Rights Manager Service. This is due to Facebook’s copyright protection software, it would keep other users from using the music too.
