YouTube protection

Register your YouTube videos under copyright

YouTubers, content creators: secure your videos and channel with an internationally recognised copyright certificate.

YouTube videos protected

Protecting your YouTube videos means proving you are the original creator. Copyright01 connects to the YouTube API to capture the HD thumbnail, 3 image captures at 25%, 50% and 75% of the video, as well as all statistics (views, likes, comments, subscribers) at the time of deposit.

If someone re-uploads your video or disputes your authorship, your timestamped certificate constitutes proof of prior existence compliant with the Berne Convention (181 countries). Certification takes less than 2 minutes.

You can also protect your content on TikTok, Instagram or Threads.
