I received a copyright claim on social media. What should I do?

If you received a copyright claim on social media, don't worry. We are pleased to confirm that Splice’s music library is sub-licensed and eligible for commercial use. This means creators can confidently incorporate Splice’s tracks into their projects without concerns about licensing conflicts.

Recently, our provider has updated its policies, introducing a new user requirement for YouTube content. To continue using music from the library without any issues, creators must now include the following disclaimer in their YouTube videos: “This video contains music from Shutterstock, licensed by Splice video editing app.” Failure to do so may result in a copyright claim on the content.

To avoid copyright issues, creators can request their channel be whitelisted. To do this, they need to submit their YouTube Channel IDs to our support team, which will assist them in the process.

If your video or profile meets the above requirements but social media platforms still flag our tracks for copyright, we recommend disputing the claim. If your project remains unavailable after filing a dispute, please reach out to us with the following details:

• The full title and artist of the song used in your project
• The name of the platform that issued the copyright claim
• A screenshot of the message notifying you about the claim and the rejection of your dispute
