Copyright and DMCA Policy
Draft for legal review. Last updated: 18 October 2026.
Stream Autopsy respects the rights of streamers and other creators and expects its users to do the same.
How the site is designed
- Nothing is posted automatically. Every video is reviewed and approved by a person, and users upload videos to their own accounts.
- The site is built for commentary, criticism and analysis: users are expected to add substantial original commentary, use only as much of a clip as their point needs, and credit the original streamer.
- Streamers who ask not to be clipped are blocked in the tool, and users can record "do not clip" preferences.
- Our risk screening is a tool, not a legal opinion. Whether a particular use is fair use is decided case by case, and each user is responsible for their own videos.
If you are a streamer and want to opt out
Email [contact email to be added] with your channel name. We'll add you to our block list so the tool stops suggesting your clips.
Reporting infringement (DMCA notice)
If you believe material on Stream Autopsy (for example, a public share page or a forum post) infringes your copyright, send a notice to our designated agent with:
- your physical or electronic signature;
- the work you believe is infringed;
- the exact link to the material on our site;
- your contact details (address, phone, email);
- a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and

Videos that users have posted on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram or other platforms are hosted by those platforms. Please use their copyright reporting tools for content on their sites.
What happens next
We remove or disable access to the reported material promptly and notify the user who posted it.
Counter-notice
If you believe material was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice with your signature, the removed material and where it appeared, a statement under penalty of perjury that you believe it was removed by mistake, your contact details, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for your address. We may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days unless the complainant tells us they have filed a court action.
Repeat infringers
We close the accounts of users who receive repeated valid copyright complaints.
