Changes to YouTube’s Terms of Service

 

You're receiving this email because we're updating the YouTube Terms of Service ("Terms") to clarify our terms and provide transparency to our users. The Terms were similarly updated in the United States in November 2020. 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 updates to the Terms carefully. The new Terms will take effect on June 1, 2021 for users outside the U.S. By continuing to use YouTube after this date, you are agreeing to the new Terms. 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.

From my research, I've found that the following  ten websites  are the perfect starting point for your backlinking campaign: 1. Facebook :  {PR 9  No-Follow } –  One of the downsides to Facebook is they have a "no-follow" policy with their outbound links.  This means your site won't get credit for any link from this social media site. So why do I include Facebook in this list? Well, there are a number of indicators that Google has increased their emphasis on the amount of "social buzz" a site gets.  So it's important to set up a Facebook profile or Fan Page for your website.  Plus you should also make sure this page gets a steady amount of  comments  and  likes . 2. YouTube :  {PR 9 Do-Follow/No-Follow} –  There's a little confusion about YouTube when it comes to backlinks. Your main profile does h
