Qualifications & exceptions

  • Access is through your YouTube Music account

Not stated here

Cross-references

  • contrast (model-proposed): YouTube may make limited changes to your files for playback — contrast: The policy says the content is only accessible by you through your account, and separately says YouTube may need to make limited necessary changes to it for playback. The page does not say how these fit together, so the changes may be the processing that the only-you access statement leaves unmentioned.
