➤YouTube Uses Content ID to Detect Copyrighted Material:
YouTube’s Content ID system scans uploaded videos and automatically matches them against a database of copyrighted content provided by rights holders.

If Content ID finds a match, the copyright owner can block, monetize, or track the usage of their content depending on their preferences.
➤Manual Claims Can Be Submitted by Rights Holders:
In addition to automated Content ID, manual copyright takedown notices can be filed by rights holders for infringing content not detected automatically.

When a claim is made, the uploader is notified in YouTube Studio, explaining which part of the video is affected and the action taken.

If a creator believes a copyright claim is incorrect, they can submit a dispute through YouTube’s built-in resolution process.
➤Fair Use Can Be Used as a Defense:
YouTube allows disputes based on fair use, especially for content used in commentary, criticism, education, or parody, though it may still be contested.
➤Three Copyright Strikes Can Lead to Channel Termination:
Receiving three valid copyright strikes within 90 days can result in channel suspension or termination under YouTube’s repeat infringement policy.
➤YouTube Offers a Copyright Match Tool:
For creators, YouTube provides a Copyright Match Tool to detect reuploads of their original content, helping protect against theft.
