Am I allowed to put YouTube videos on a website with AdSense?

    Hello,

    Am I allowed to put YouTube videos (that are not mine) on a website that has AdSense on it? I think of YouTube's embed code that is present every time you watch a video on their page. Does YouTube say somewhere in their terms that if you publish your video to YouTube you agree somehow to let other users use your video too? Is there any chance to get banned on AdSense for using copyrighted content on my website because of the YouTube videos?

    Thank you.

    Good question, I know I've seen web sites with embedded videos from youtube with adsense ads on them. I think as long as the videos are not copyrighted you should be ok.

    I wonder if how we will know that it isn't a copy righted video?. Considering that it was posted in youtube I thought all of those videos are copy righted right or am wrong about it?. Anyway I have youtube videos which I am going to delete so I will have no problem with it.

    I think it's fine as long as you're not running a site with just Youtube videos and Google ads.

    I don't think google will ban you if you have copyrighted vids from youtube because most are and google owns youtube why would they want you to not use the videos

    Google videos also have embed code in it.
    So, can I embed those videos also in my site ?
    They are providing embed code means, are they encouraging or agreeing to embed that video in other sites right ??
    I asked same question to adsense team and they didn't reply me properly.

    What does that mean? They weren't clear, or they sent you a standard email, or what?

    They are not clear and they sent a standard email to read terms and conditions.

    If the video is copyrighted then why youtube or google will allow to upload into them.
    And how to know which videos are copyrighted.

    Well, categorically, they should.

    But have a close look on youtube....go to the music video as an actual
    demo of what im trying to point out here...

    yup....plenty of copyrighted materials...and they've been there for ages..

    You'll notice though that they will filter child pornography and other related
    materials fast but not on these ones....

    You can embed youtube videos and google videos as long as you're not creating a site called "Watch Free Movies" or of the sort.
