Welcome, Creators

Working together to protect our shared community

We’re all about building a place where everyone can belong. YouTube is made up of a broad mix of communities and voices, and we’re committed to keeping it that way. Learn how we work to do that, together.

Our policies and guidelines were created to support everyone on YouTube: Creators and viewers of all ages, races, cultures, and more. We ask everyone to follow these guidelines so that we can all continue to enjoy YouTube together.

Read our Policies & Guidelines

We’ve taken a close look at our policies to make sure YouTube protects everyone in our community. We’ve made changes like improving the way you can filter comments to help cut down on offensive content, and we’ve given Creators a place to share info about their race, gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

Read Inclusivity Update

We work hard to protect everyone in the YouTube community. We strongly believe that there is no place for hate or harassment here and have Hate Speech and Harassment & Cyberbullying policies in place to protect viewers and Creators.

We partner with experts and many different communities to write our policies to ensure everyone is included and everyone’s voice is heard.
