Kebijakan dan Keamanan Youtube 2020 Untuk Sahabat Bitter

December 24, 2019 2
Hay Sahabat Bitter, kali ini Bitter Coffee Park akan mengajak Kalian Ngobrol ala Obrolan Warung Kopi tentang:
Kebijakan dan Keamanan Youtube 2020 Untuk Sahabat Bitter
Saat Sahabat Bitter menggunakan YouTube, Sahabat Bitter bergabung dengan komunitas pengguna dari seluruh dunia. Setiap fitur komunitas yang baru dan keren di YouTube membutuhkan kepercayaan. Jutaan pengguna menghargai kepercayaan itu dan YouTube percaya bahwa Sahabat Bitter juga akan bertanggung jawab. Dengan mengikuti panduan berikut, Sahabat Bittrr membantu menjaga YouTube agar tetap menyenangkan dan dapat dinikmati siapa saja.
Sahabat Bitter mungkin tidak menyukai konten tertentu yang ditampilkan di YouTube. Jika menurut Sahabat Bitter ada konten yang tidak pantas, gunakan fitur pelaporan untuk melaporkan konten tersebut agar ditinjau oleh staf YouTube. Staf YouTube akan meninjau konten yang dilaporkan dengan saksama, 24 jam sehari 7 hari seminggu, untuk menentukan apakah konten melanggar Pedoman Komunitas YouTube.

Berikut ini beberapa aturan umum agar Sahabat Bitter terhindar dari masalah. 
Perhatikan benar-benar semua aturan ini dan tanamkan di dalam hati. Jangan coba-coba mencari celah atau mengakalinya—cukup pahami dan hormati inti aturan tersebut:

Kebijakan terkait konten ketelanjangan dan seksual

Konten vulgar yang dimaksudkan untuk memberi kepuasan seksual (seperti pornografi) tidak diizinkan di YouTube. Video yang berisi konten fetisisme akan dihapus atau dikenai pembatasan usia. Dalam sebagian besar kasus, fetisisme yang bernuansa kekerasan, vulgar, atau memalukan tidak diizinkan di YouTube.

Jika Sahabat Bitter melihat konten yang melanggar kebijakan ini, harap laporkan kepada YouTube. Petunjuk cara melaporkan pelanggaran Pedoman Komunitas tersedia di sini. Jika Sahabat Bitter menemukan berbagai video, komentar, atau keseluruhan channel dari seorang kreator yang ingin dilaporkan, buka fitur pelaporan YouTube.

Konten seksual vulgar yang menampilkan anak di bawah umur dan konten yang mengeksploitasi anak di bawah umur secara seksual tidak diizinkan di YouTube. YouTube melaporkan konten yang berisi gambar pelecehan seksual terhadap anak ke National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (Organisasi Nasional untuk Anak Hilang & Tereksploitasi) yang bekerja sama dengan lembaga penegak hukum global.

Apa artinya ini bagi Sahabat Bitter?
Jika Sahabat Bitter memposting konten
Jangan memposting konten di YouTube jika berisi salah satu hal di bawah ini:
  1. Penggambaran alat kelamin, payudara, atau bokong (tertutup pakaian atau tidak) untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual; dan
  2. Pornografi yang menggambarkan tindakan seksual, alat kelamin, atau fetisisme untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual.
Jenis konten lain yang melanggar kebijakan ini
  1. Masturbasi atau membelai alat kelamin, payudara, atau bokong
  2. Menggunakan atau menampilkan mainan seks untuk memberikan kepuasan seksual kepada penonton
  3. Kecelakaan busana selebriti atau bocornya foto telanjang
  4. Konten fetisisme yang bernuansa kekerasan, vulgar, atau memalukan dengan tujuan kepuasan seksual
  5. Ketelanjangan, sepenuhnya atau sebagian, untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  6. Penggambaran tindakan seks secara jelas atau tersirat untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  7. Konten animasi tindakan seks, pornografi, atau fetisisme
  8. Tindakan seks non-konsensual atau berbagai hal yang menjurus ke arah seksualitas yang tidak diinginkan
  9. Bestialitas atau mendukung bestialitas
  10. Inses atau mendukung inses
  11. Mengagregasi konten untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  12. Konten seksual apa pun yang melibatkan anak di bawah umur
  13. Perlu diketahui bahwa ini bukanlah daftar yang lengkap.
Konten yang dikenai pembatasan usia
YouTube dapat mengenakan pembatasan usia pada konten jika konten tersebut mencakup konten ketelanjangan atau konten seksual lainnya tetapi tidak menggambarkan apa pun yang dijelaskan di atas. Kami mempertimbangkan faktor berikut saat menentukan apakah akan menerapkan pembatasan usia atau penghapusan konten.
  1. Apakah bagian payudara, bokong, atau alat kelamin (tertutup pakaian atau tidak) menjadi fokus utama dalam video;
  2. Apakah subjek digambarkan dalam pose yang dimaksudkan untuk membangkitkan berahi penonton
  3. Apakah bahasa yang digunakan dalam video tersebut vulgar dan/atau cabul
  4. Apakah tindakan subjek dalam video mengundang untuk terlibat dalam aktivitas seksual seperti berciuman, melakukan tarian yang merangsang, mencumbu
  5. Apakah secara umum pakaian akan terlihat tidak pantas dalam konteks publik, seperti pakaian dalam
  6. Apakah gambar atau audio seksual telah diburamkan, disembunyikan, atau dikaburkan;
  7. Apakah gambar atau audio bernuansa seksual diperlihatkan secara sekilas atau lama dalam konten.
Perlu diketahui bahwa ini bukanlah daftar yang lengkap.

Kebijakan ini berlaku untuk video, deskripsi video, komentar, live stream, dan produk atau fitur YouTube lainnya. Perlu diingat bahwa ini hanyalah beberapa contoh. Jangan memposting konten jika menurut Anda dapat melanggar kebijakan ini.

Konten pendidikan
Kami mengizinkan ketelanjangan jika tujuan utamanya adalah pendidikan, dokumenter, ilmiah, atau artistik, dan tidak ditayangkan secara serampangan. Misalnya, dokumenter tentang kanker payudara dapat dianggap pantas, tetapi memposting klip video yang tidak ada hubungannya dengan dokumenter yang sama dapat dianggap tidak pantas. Ketelanjangan di luar konteks pada masyarakat pribumi, selama prosedur medis, selama persalinan, selama pertunjukan artistik, atau selama menyusui mungkin tidak memenuhi pengecualian dokumenter kami. Harap diingat bahwa memberikan konteks pada konten, judul, dan deskripsi akan membantu kami dan penonton Sahabat Bitter untuk menentukan tujuan utama dari video tersebut.

Contoh
  1. Berikut ini beberapa contoh konten yang tidak diperbolehkan di YouTube.
  2. Klip yang diambil dari film, pertunjukan, atau konten non-pornografi lainnya untuk mengisolasi konten seksual
  3. Meraba-raba, memelorotkan celana orang lain, masturbasi di tempat umum, mengambil foto pakaian dalam, voyeurisme, eksibisionisme predator, atau konten lainnya yang menggambarkan seseorang secara seksual tanpa persetujuan mereka
Perlu diingat bahwa ini hanya beberapa contoh. Jangan memposting konten jika menurut Anda dapat melanggar kebijakan ini.

Contoh lainnya
  1. Playlist yang mengumpulkan konten berisi ketelanjangan atau tema seksual untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  2. Tarian merangsang yang difokuskan pada alat kelamin, bokong, atau payudara penari
  3. Konten yang menggambarkan pemerkosaan secara seksual dalam bentuk apa pun, atau konten yang mengumpulkan klip adegan pemerkosaan yang didramatisasi
  4. Penggambaran audio atau tekstual dari tindakan seksual untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  5. Konten yang memperlihatkan cairan atau ekskresi tubuh, seperti urin, untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  6. Konten yang menggunakan benda atau skenario sehari-hari, seperti suntikan atau makan, untuk tujuan kepuasan seksual
  7. Konten video game yang sudah dikembangkan atau dimodifikasi (“mod”) untuk kepuasan seksual, atau berfokus pada tema seksualitas yang tidak diinginkan
Hal yang terjadi jika konten melanggar kebijakan ini

Jika konten Sahabat Bitter melanggar kebijakan ini, kami akan menghapus konten tersebut dan mengirimkan email pemberitahuan kepada Sahabat Bitter. Jika ini adalah pertama kalinya Sahabat Bitter memposting konten yang melanggar Pedoman Komunitas, channel Sahabat Bitter akan mendapatkan peringatan tanpa penalti. Jika sudah pernah melakukan pelanggaran, channel Sahabat Bitter akan mendapatkan teguran pertama. Channel akan dihentikan jika Sahabat Bitter menerima teguran hingga tiga kali. Sahabat Bitter dapat mempelajari sistem teguran kami di sini lebih lanjut.

Konten yang dikenai pembatasan usia
Video yang menggambarkan tindakan berbahaya dapat diizinkan jika tujuan utamanya adalah untuk pendidikan, dokumenter, ilmiah, atau artistik (EDSA), dan tidak ditayangkan secara sembarangan. Misalnya, konten berita yang menyampaikan bahaya permainan mencekik leher dapat diizinkan, namun postingan klip yang tidak ada hubungannya dengan konten tersebut tidak akan diizinkan.

Kebijakan ini berlaku untuk video, deskripsi video, komentar, live streaming, dan produk atau fitur YouTube lainnya.

Jika ini adalah pertama kalinya Sahabat Bitter memposting konten yang melanggar Pedoman Komunitas, channel Sahabat Bitter akan mendapatkan peringatan tanpa penalti. Jika sudah pernah melakukan pelanggaran, channel Sahabat Bitter akan mendapatkan teguran pertama. Channel akan dihentikan jika Sahabat Bitter menerima teguran hingga tiga kali.

Perubahan penting yang dapat berdampak pada monetisasi dan visibilitas konten Sahabat Bitter akan segera berlaku.

November 14, 2019 2
Hay Sahabat Bitter, kali ini Bitter Coffee Park akan mengajak Kalian Ngobrol ala Obrolan Warung Kopi tentang:
Perubahan penting yang dapat berdampak pada monetisasi dan visibilitas konten Sahabat Bitter akan segera berlaku.
Mulai sekarang, Sahabat Bitter Sebagai kreator diwajibkan untuk memberi tahu Youtube apakah konten mereka Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak atau tidak, untuk mematuhi Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) dan/ atau undang-undang lainnya yang berlaku. Untuk membantu Sahabat Bitter mematuhi kebijakan ini, Youtube dengan memperkenalkan setelan penonton baru di YouTube Studio.

Sahabat Bitter dapat menetapkan penonton Sahabat Bitter di tingkat channel atau video, tergantung pada jumlah konten yang Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak di channel Sahabat Bitter. Kreator hanya perlu melakukan satu kali klik jika menyetel di tingkat channel.

Perubahan ini diwajibkan sebagai bagian dari penyelesaian dengan Komisi Perdagangan Federal (FTC) Amerika Serikat dan Jaksa Agung New York, serta akan membantu Anda mematuhi Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) dan/ atau undang-undang lainnya yang berlaku.

Youtube tahu bahwa perubahan ini tidak akan mudah bagi sebagian kreator, dan bahwa sebagian kreator perlu waktu untuk terbiasa dengan perubahan yang diwajibkan ini. Akan tetapi, ini merupakan langkah penting yang harus diambil untuk memastikan kepatuhan terhadap undang-undang.

Baca selengkapnya di bawah untuk memahami kewajiban hukum Sahabat Bitter dan dampak yang dapat ditimbulkan pilihan ini terhadap channel Sahabat Bitter.

Apa saja yang berubah?
Mulai sekarang, semua kreator diwajibkan untuk menandai konten mereka sebagai Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak atau Tidak Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak di YouTube Studio.

Mulai Januari: Youtube akan membatasi data yang Youtube kumpulkan dari konten yang Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak untuk mematuhi undang-undang. Artinya, Youtube akan menonaktifkan iklan yang dipersonalisasi di konten ini (yang memengaruhi pendapatan untuk kreator yang membuat konten untuk anak-anak), serta fitur tertentu seperti komentar, notifikasi, dan lainnya.
Lihat daftar fitur yang terpengaruh di sini.

Mengapa ini terjadi?
Perubahan ini diwajibkan sebagai bagian dari penyelesaian dengan Komisi Perdagangan Federal (FTC) Amerika Serikat dan Jaksa Agung New York, serta akan membantu Sahabat Bitter mematuhi Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) dan/ atau undang-undang lainnya yang berlaku.

Di mana pun Sahabat Bitter berada, Youtube diwajibkan untuk meminta Sahabat Bitter menetapkan video Sahabat Bitter sebagai Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak jika video tersebut termasuk dalam kategori ini. Tetapkan setelan ini secepatnya.

Youtube juga akan menggunakan machine learning untuk mengidentifikasi video yang dengan jelas Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak. Namun, jangan mengandalkan sistem Youtube untuk menetapkan konten Sahabat Bitter. Seperti semua sistem otomatis lainnya, sistem kami belum sempurna.

Jika Sahabat Bitter tidak menetapkan konten Sahabat Bitter atau jika kami mendeteksi error atau penyalahgunaan, kami dapat menetapkan penonton untuk Sahabat Bitter. Jika Sahabat Bitter tidak menetapkan konten Sahabat Bitter secara akurat, Sahabat Bitter dapat menghadapi masalah kepatuhan dengan FTC atau otoritas lain, dan Youtube dapat mengambil tindakan pada akun YouTube Sahabat Bitter.

Apa itu konten yang “Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak”?
Youtube tidak dapat memberikan nasihat hukum spesifik, tapi menurut panduan FTC mengenai COPPA, video ditujukan untuk anak-anak (yang youtube sebut “Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak) jika:

  1. Video ditujukan untuk anak-anak sebagai penonton utama (mis. video untuk anak-anak prasekolah).
  2. Video ditujukan untuk anak-anak tetapi anak-anak adalah penonton sekunder (mis. video kartun yang terutama menargetkan remaja tetapi juga ditujukan untuk anak-anak yang lebih muda).
Pelajari lebih lanjut berbagai faktor yang menentukan apakah konten Sahabat Bitter dianggap sebagai Dibuat untuk Anak-Anak atau tidak di sini.

Karena Youtube tahu bahwa perubahan ini tidak akan mudah bagi sebagian kreator, dan bahwa sebagian kreator perlu waktu untuk terbiasa dengan perubahan yang diwajibkan ini. Youtube memang tidak dapat menyediakan nasihat hukum, tapi Youtube berkomitmen untuk membantu Para Kreator melalui transisi ini.

Sahabat Bitrer dapat mempelajari lebih lanjut kewajiban Sahabat Bitter menurut Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), serta berbagai alat yang Youtube kembangkan untuk mendukung Sahabat Butrer di sini.

Catatan:
Tertarik menghasilkan uang di YouTube? Semua kreator YouTube bisa mendaftarkan diri untuk bergabung dengan Program Partner YouTube, selama program tersebut sudah tersedia di negaranya. 

Setelah mencapai waktu tonton sebanyak 4.000 jam dalam 12 bulan terakhir, dan memiliki setidaknya 1.000 subscriber, aktivitas Sahabat Bitter akan ditinjau sesuai dengan kebijakan YouTube. 

Jika semuanya berjalan lancar, Sahabat Bitter bisa bergabung dengan Program Partner YouTube dan mulai menayangkan iklan pada konten Sahabat Bitter. 

Ambang batas minimum ini membantu memastikan agar pemasukan hanya diberikan kepada kreator yang mematuhi aturan.

Removing Your Content
You may remove your Content from the Service at any time. You also have the option to make a copy of your Content before removing it. You must remove your Content if you no longer have the rights required by these terms.

Removal of Content By YouTube1
If we reasonably believe that any Content is in breach of this Agreement or may cause harm to YouTube, our users, or third parties, we may remove or take down that Content in our discretion. We will notify you with the reason for our action unless we reasonably believe that to do so: (a) would breach the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority or would otherwise risk legal liability for YouTube or our Affiliates; (b) would compromise an investigation or the integrity or operation of the Service; or (c) would cause harm to any user, other third party, YouTube or our Affiliates. You can learn more about reporting and enforcement, including how to appeal on the Troubleshooting page of our Help Center.

Copyright Protection
We provide information to help copyright holders manage their intellectual property online in our YouTube Copyright Center. If you believe your copyright has been infringed on the Service, please send us a notice.

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement according to the process in our YouTube Copyright Center, where you can also find information about how to resolve a copyright strike. YouTube's policies provide for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of repeat infringers’ access to the Service.

Account Suspension & Termination
Terminations by You
You may stop using the Service at any time. Follow these instructions to delete the Service from your Google Account, which involves closing your YouTube channel and removing your data. You also have the option to download a copy of your data first.

Terminations and Suspensions by YouTube for Cause
YouTube may suspend or terminate your access, your Google account, or your Google account’s access to all or part of the Service if (a) you materially or repeatedly breach this Agreement; (b) we are required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or a court order; or (c) we believe there has been conduct that creates (or could create) liability or harm to any user, other third party, YouTube or our Affiliates.

Terminations by YouTube for Service Changes
YouTube may terminate your access, or your Google account’s access to all or part of the Service if YouTube believes, in its sole discretion, that provision of the Service to you is no longer commercially viable. 

Notice for Termination or Suspension
We will notify you with the reason for termination or suspension by YouTube unless we reasonably believe that to do so: 
  • would violate the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority, or would otherwise risk legal liability for YouTube or our Affiliates; 
  • would compromise an investigation or the integrity or operation of the Service; or 
  • would cause harm to any user, other third party, YouTube or our Affiliates. 
Where YouTube is terminating your access for Service changes, where reasonably possible, you will be provided with sufficient time to export your Content from the Service.

About Software in the Service
Downloadable Software
When the Service requires or includes downloadable software (such as the YouTube Studio application), you give permission for that software to update automatically on your device once a new version or feature is available, subject to your device settings. Unless that software is governed by additional terms which provide a license, YouTube gives you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive license to use the software provided to you by YouTube as part of the Service. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Service as provided by YouTube, in the manner permitted by this Agreement. You are not allowed to copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the software, or to reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the source code of that software, unless laws prohibit these restrictions or you have YouTube’s written permission.

Open Source
Some software used in our Service may be offered under an open source license that we make available to you. There may be provisions in an open source license that expressly override some of these terms, so please be sure to read those licenses.

Severance
