Hello website visitor person!

Sharing and reusing media online is basically essential to internet use nowadays and different people have different feelings about their content being reused. I thought it would be handy to create this page to make my stance clear about the reuse of my content.

TL;DR – DO NOT TRY TO PROFIT OFF OF MY CONTENT WITHOUT PERMISSION.

With that out of the way let’s get into specifics:

YouTube Videos #

My YouTube videos are probably the thing I am most strict about in terms of reuse, due to the time and effort required to make them in addition to them being a source my own revenue.

You Can:

  • Download my public videos from YouTube to keep for your own offline enjoyment (despite what YouTube themselves thinks)
  • Share small clips of my videos on social media
  • Use parts of my video in your own video under Fair Use - If it is used in a transformative way and I am credited
  • Remix my videos into memes or YouTube Poops

You Should Not:

  • Reupload my videos to YouTube or any other website (unless strictly for archival purposes and does not detract from my videos)
  • Make edits to my videos and reupload them to avoid copyright - people have done this where they reupload my video and they add their own voice or filter to it
  • Reupload my videos as chunks to YouTube and social media with the intent of trying to pass it off as your own
  • Attempt to profit off of my videos in any way (unless it is in your own video under fair use)

YouTube Member Videos #

These are the videos accessible through paid means such as becoming a YouTube Member

You Can:

  • Download the videos from YouTube to keep for your own offline enjoyment (despite what YouTube themselves thinks)
  • Share screenshots or clips among other members in the member’s only chats on my Discord server

You Should Not:

  • Reupload my videos to YouTube or any other website - This diminishes the worth of the video to people who are paying for it allowing for other people who aren’t paying to see it
  • Spoil upcoming videos for non-paying members

Music #

You Can:

  • Use my songs within your own work such as YouTube videos as long as I am credited
  • Create remixes of my music for fun and not for profit (If the music is being monetised or formally released I will need to be properly credited and financially compensated just like any other artist)
  • Download and share my music to other people

You Should Not:

  • Steal my music and claim it as your own
  • Use / remix my music without proper credit
  • Profit off of my music in any way (with the exception of using it as background music in a YouTube video)

Artwork #

You Can:

  • Create your own interpretations of my artwork / characters (for example: creating your own CRT Boi artwork using that character or making your own version of something I have made from scratch without tracing / stealing my work)

You Should Not:

  • Trace / steal my work and try to claim it as your own

AI Content #

You Should Not:

  • Create deepfakes of my voice, face, or any part of my likeness
  • Use my work in training data for AI

Other #

You Should Not:

  • Share my personal information online such as names, addresses, phone numbers, ect. (basically, do not dox me)
