2. Purpose of This Policy

Playflick supports creator collaboration, independent filmmaking, co-created entertainment, production teams, guest appearances, interviews, creative partnerships, and community projects.

This policy helps creators understand:

Who is responsible for collaborative content
What permissions may be needed before uploading
How credits and ownership should be handled
How revenue disputes may arise
How shared account access should be managed
How Playflick may respond to collaboration disputes

3. Creator Responsibility

The account that uploads or publishes content on Playflick is responsible for ensuring that the content complies with Playflick policies and applicable law.

If you upload collaborative content, you are responsible for ensuring you have the rights, permissions, licences, consents, and authority needed to upload, display, promote, monetise, sell, or distribute that content.

4. What Counts as Collaborative Content?

Collaborative content may include:

Co-created videos
Short films made by a team
Trailers made with other creators
Interviews
Guest appearances
Podcast-style videos
Reaction or commentary collaborations
Joint livestreams
Creator challenges
Music videos involving multiple artists
Videos involving actors, editors, writers, producers, camera operators, or performers
Content created by agencies, studios, collectives, or production teams

5. Permissions Before Uploading

Before uploading collaborative content, creators should make sure they have permission from relevant people and rights holders.

Permissions may be needed from:

Co-creators
Actors and performers
Voice actors
Music artists
Editors, writers, and producers
Camera operators and photographers
Studios or production companies
Brands or sponsors
Location owners
Rights holders for music, clips, images, artwork, logos, or characters

Playflick may remove or restrict content where a rights, consent, privacy, copyright, trademark, impersonation, or ownership dispute exists.

6. Written Agreements Are Recommended

Playflick recommends that collaborators agree important terms in writing before publishing or monetising content.

Collaboration agreements may cover:

Who owns the content
Who may upload the content
Who may monetise the content
How revenue will be shared outside Playflick
Who controls the channel or account
Who may edit, remove, or re-upload the content
How credits should appear
How disputes will be handled
Whether clips, trailers, or promotional materials may be used
Whether the content may be used for ads, sponsorships, or paid access

Playflick does not provide legal advice or draft collaboration contracts for creators.

7. Credits and Attribution

Creators should credit collaborators accurately where credits are promised, required, or appropriate.

Credits may include:

Director
Writer
Producer
Actor or performer
Editor
Composer or music artist
Camera operator
Animator
Designer
Co-creator
Guest creator
Brand or sponsor disclosure where required

Credits must not be used to falsely suggest endorsement, official status, sponsorship, or involvement.

8. Guest Appearances and Interviews

If content includes guests, interviewees, performers, or featured participants, creators should ensure that the people involved understand how the content may be used.

Creators should be especially careful where content involves:

Children or young people
Private individuals
Vulnerable people
People discussing sensitive personal matters
People appearing in private locations
People whose likeness, voice, or identity may be used commercially

9. Shared Channels and Team Access

If multiple people manage a channel, the account owner is responsible for controlling access safely.

Channel owners should:

Limit access to trusted people
Use strong passwords
Enable two-factor authentication where available
Remove former collaborators, employees, contractors, or agencies promptly
Keep clear records of who is authorised to manage the account
Monitor uploads, comments, purchases, ads, payouts, and account changes

Playflick may not be able to resolve internal team disputes about channel access or creative control.

10. Revenue Sharing Between Collaborators

Playflick may pay eligible revenue only to the account, payout method, or creator profile recognised by Playflick under the relevant monetisation and payout rules.

Playflick is not responsible for private revenue-sharing agreements between collaborators unless Playflick has expressly agreed otherwise in writing.

Collaborators should agree outside Playflick how revenue, expenses, refunds, chargebacks, taxes, commissions, and payouts will be shared.

11. Paid Content and Collaborations

If collaborative content is sold, rented, placed behind a subscription, monetised, sponsored, or promoted, creators must ensure they have permission from all relevant rights holders and collaborators.

Paid collaborative content should not:

Mislead viewers about what they are buying
Use content without the rights needed to sell it
Hide sponsorships or affiliate relationships
Use another collaborator’s work after permission has been withdrawn where legally relevant
Create disputes about ownership, royalties, or payment promises

12. Copyright and Ownership Disputes

Collaboration disputes may involve copyright, ownership, licensing, credits, revenue, channel control, or distribution rights.

Playflick may review disputes where they involve Playflick policies or valid legal notices, but Playflick may refuse to decide complex private ownership disputes between collaborators.

Playflick may require parties to resolve disputes privately, contractually, through legal advice, or through appropriate legal channels.

13. Removal Requests from Collaborators

A collaborator may contact Playflick if they believe collaborative content violates their rights, privacy, consent, copyright, trademark, or other legal interests.

Playflick may request supporting information such as:

The content URL
The complainant’s role in the content
Evidence of ownership or permission limits
Relevant contracts or written agreements where available
Privacy, safety, or consent concerns
Copyright or trademark details where applicable

Removal is not guaranteed and may depend on the facts, available evidence, policies, and applicable law.

14. Children in Collaborative Content

Collaborative content involving children must be handled with extra care.

Creators must not:

Exploit children for views, money, sympathy, or engagement
Expose a child’s home, school, location, routine, or private information
Show children in unsafe, humiliating, vulnerable, or inappropriate situations
Sexualise children or young people
Use children in unsafe sponsorships or promotions
Upload content involving children without appropriate permission where required

Serious child-safety concerns may result in immediate content removal, account action, evidence preservation, and reporting where appropriate or required.

15. Sponsored Collaborations

Collaborative content that includes sponsorships, paid promotion, product placement, affiliate links, gifted products, or brand partnerships must be clearly disclosed where required.

Creators and brands should clearly agree:

Who is responsible for disclosure
Where the disclosure will appear
What claims may be made
Who approves sponsored materials
Whether the content may be monetised
Whether children or young audiences may be affected

More information is available in our Sponsored Content & Affiliate Disclosure Policy.

16. AI-Assisted Collaborations

If collaboration involves AI-generated voices, faces, performances, scripts, images, music, or synthetic media, creators must ensure they have the rights, permissions, and disclosures required.

AI must not be used to:

Impersonate a collaborator without permission
Clone a person’s voice deceptively or harmfully
Create non-consensual intimate content
Mislead viewers about real participation
Use a collaborator’s likeness after permission has been refused or withdrawn where legally relevant

More information is available in our AI-Generated Content Policy.

17. Account Ownership Disputes

If collaborators dispute who owns or controls a Playflick account or channel, Playflick may review available records but may not be able to resolve the dispute.

Playflick may consider:

Account creation history
Email ownership
Login history
Business verification records
Payout records
Prior support communications
Contracts or legal documents where necessary

Playflick may restrict account changes or payouts while ownership is disputed.

18. Disputes Between Collaborators

Playflick is not a court, arbitrator, agent, manager, production company, talent agency, royalty collector, or legal representative for collaborators.

Playflick may not resolve disputes about:

Private contracts
Creative credit
Revenue splits
Production costs
Talent fees
Internal team disagreements
Ownership of business assets
Personal disputes between creators

If a dispute cannot be resolved, collaborators may need independent legal advice or formal dispute resolution.
