Full Video Labels
Full video labels should not be used on every video or channel which is sponsored.
The label should only be applied if the entire video is based around or features the product and removing mentions would remove the majority of the video.
Even when a video is labelled as such, the parts that can be cleanly skipped should still be skipped but the disclosure[1] should still be left intact.
Only one label is shown on a video at a time. The priority of the labels is
- Sponsor
- Exclusive Access
- Unpaid/ Self Promo
Submitting Full Video Labels
- Select any points on the video
- Select one of the applicable categories
- In the type dropdown with Skip / Mute, select "Full Video"
Sponsor
This label should only be used when the creator has been paid in money to advertise something shown in the video that cannot be completely removed by cuts or the topic of the video was decided by a paying party.
This should not be used when a creator is given a free product from a company.
Exclusive Access
This label should only be used when the creator showcases a product, service or location that they've received free or subsidised access to in the video that cannot be completely removed by cuts.
Unpaid/Self Promotion
This follows the same rules as Unpaid/Self Promotion.
This should not be used when a creator is given a free product from a company.
