Question: If Label Z and Label Y claim an asset in the same territory, but Label Z has a match policy of Block and Label Y has a match policy of Track, which policy will YouTube apply until the partners resolve their ownership conflict?
- Block
- Track
- Monetize
- Both Block and Track
Explanation
During an ownership conflict, YouTube applies the most restrictive match policy when different owners set different actions for the same asset’s claims. Block is more restrictive than Track because it prevents the claimed video from being viewed in the affected territory. Track only collects viewership data while allowing the video to remain available. The applied policy remains the controlling action until the partners resolve the conflicting ownership.
Why the other options are incorrect
Track is incorrect because it is less restrictive than Block.
Monetize is incorrect because neither partner set Monetize as the active policy.
Both Block and Track is incorrect because YouTube applies the most restrictive policy rather than two separate policy outcomes.
