Policy, Copyright & Compliance

Regulated goods policy

Also called: sale of illegal or regulated goods, firearms policy

The trigger is facilitation, and not mention. Discussing, reviewing or filming a regulated product is generally fine. Giving a viewer the means to acquire it is where the policy bites, so links to sellers, contact details, discount codes and instructions for getting round age checks are what get videos removed. The list stretches past the obvious to counterfeit documents, unlicensed pharmaceuticals, endangered species, and uncertified online gambling. Enforcement here is a strike, so it sits in a much heavier category than the advertiser-friendly guidelines most creators worry about day to day.
