[Communications] Changes to YouTube's Terms of Service

[YouTube]

You're receiving this email because we're updating the YouTube Terms of  
Service  
<https://www.google.com/appserve/mkt/p/AD-FnEzy_lrfYcSTm-ckz_8oGtzGF53Q7oUmpW1fDsCTQb5Qa0E7w5RcPbldo3xu7e_Lio0CXCuPdJP-CMz4sEY_EU0U1Q83nY7_wmumKEvRSdnGDw>  
("Terms") to clarify our terms and provide transparency to our users. These  
changes shouldn't significantly alter your access or use of the YouTube  
service.

A summary of the changes:

* Facial recognition restrictions: The Terms of Service already state that  
you cannot collect any information that might identify a person without  
their permission. While this has always included facial recognition  
information, the new Terms make that explicitly clear.

* YouTube's right to monetize: YouTube has the right to monetize all  
content on the platform and ads may appear on videos from channels not in  
the YouTube Partner Program.

* Royalty payments and tax withholding: For creators entitled to revenue  
payments, such payments will be treated as royalties from a U.S. tax  
perspective and Google will withhold taxes where required by law.


Please make sure you read the updated Terms  
<https://www.google.com/appserve/mkt/p/AD-FnEzpDnuE7d-kJ9kLax9zrFGNjpK2b0PWk8P1Xq282OtUiv-gwhLd0CtqmDyxIZZYjnDUhrx4d8vMnA5RblafC5Mxi6ulShUhjaVrVB_qTZaSPkEtZw>  
carefully. The new Terms will take effect on 18 November, 2020 for users in  
the U.S., and similar changes to our Terms of Service will be made outside  
the U.S. in 2021. By continuing to use YouTube after this date, you are  
agreeing to the new Terms. If you would like more information, visit our  
Help Center

Please note, if you allow your child to use YouTube Kids, then you are  
agreeing to the new Terms on behalf of your child as well.

You received this mandatory email service announcement to update you about  
important changes to the YouTube Terms.
