Your stream.Your rights to clear.

Effective: 19 September 2026 · Broadcasteer by Abelitie Designs · Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia

The Short Version

Broadcasteer does not scan, fingerprint, or pre-screen what you broadcast. There is no Content ID here and no algorithm that mutes your worship mid-service. That is a deliberate design choice, and it is one of the reasons churches choose us.

It is not permission to broadcast material you do not have the rights to. The licences you need are the same on Broadcasteer as on any other platform — we simply are not the ones policing them. If a rights holder tells us something infringing is being carried through our infrastructure, we act on it.

1. We Do Not Monitor Your Broadcasts

Broadcasteer is a production and delivery tool. We do not review, screen, approve, fingerprint, or edit your streams, and we have no obligation to do so. We do not maintain a copyright-matching database and we do not compare your audio or video against one.

You are solely responsible for everything you broadcast through the Service. The absence of monitoring is not an endorsement of, or a statement about, the content you transmit.

2. Licences You Need

By using the Service, you warrant that you hold all rights, licences, consents, and permissions necessary for everything you broadcast — music, video, images, fonts, scripture translations, and any third-party material.

A note for churches

The religious service exemption that many churches rely on generally covers performance inside your building. It does not extend to streaming, because streaming counts as a separate broadcast performance.

In practice this means a CCLI Streaming Licence (or your territory's equivalent) is usually required to stream congregational worship — on any platform, including Broadcasteer. A CVLI licence covers showing films and clips. If you show a film in service and stream it, you generally need both.

Two things catch churches out most often. First, streaming licences typically cover live performance by your own musicians and voices — pre-recorded material such as backing tracks, CDs, pre-service playlists, and clips pulled from the internet is usually excluded and needs separate clearance. Second, if you send your stream onward to YouTube, Facebook, or any other platform, that platform's own rules and automated matching still apply at their end. Broadcasteer is the pipe, not the destination.

This is general guidance to help you ask the right questions, not legal advice. Licensing varies by country and by what you actually broadcast — check with your licensing body or a lawyer for your situation.

3. Reporting Copyright Infringement

If you own copyright in a work, or are authorised to act for the owner, and you believe material carried through Broadcasteer infringes that copyright, send a written notice to our copyright agent at legal@broadcasteer.com.

Your notice must include all of the following:

→Your physical or electronic signature
→Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed
→Identification of the material you claim is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it — the Broadcasteer address (for example yourchurch.broadcasteer.com), plus the date and approximate time of the broadcast
→Your name, postal address, telephone number, and email address
→A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
→A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and — under penalty of perjury — that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on their behalf

Incomplete notices delay us. If yours is missing something we will tell you what, rather than ignore it.

Please send notices only about material actually carried through Broadcasteer. If the stream you are concerned about is on YouTube, Facebook, or another platform, that platform runs its own takedown process and is the faster route — even if the church happens to produce the stream with our software.

Notices under Malaysia's Copyright Act 1987 and notices under the United States Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512) both reach us at the address above.

5. What We Do When We Receive a Notice

We record every notice we receive and what we did about it. On a valid notice we will, as the circumstances warrant:

→Notify the customer, and forward them a copy of the notice
→Disable or remove access to the identified material, which for a live service may mean suspending the Broadcasteer address it was carried on
→Suspend or terminate the account in cases of repeat or flagrant infringement

Because Broadcasteer relays live traffic and does not keep recordings of your services, there is often nothing stored for us to take down after the fact. In those cases our response is directed at the account and its address rather than at a file.

6. Counter-Notice

If we acted against your material and you believe that was a mistake, or that you are authorised to use the material, you may send a counter-notice to legal@broadcasteer.com containing:

→Your physical or electronic signature
→Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and where it appeared before removal
→A statement under penalty of perjury that you believe in good faith the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification
→Your name, postal address, and telephone number
→A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and — if your address is in the United States — of the Federal District Court for the district of your address, and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the notice

We will forward your counter-notice to the party who complained. If they do not notify us within ten (10) business days that they have filed a court action seeking to restrain the activity, we may restore the material or service.

7. Repeat Infringer Policy

We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of customers who are repeat infringers. We treat a customer as a repeat infringer when they have been the subject of multiple valid, uncontested copyright notices, and we may act sooner where infringement is flagrant.

A notice that is withdrawn, successfully countered, or found to be invalid does not count against an account.

8. Misuse of This Process

Knowingly making a material misrepresentation — that material is infringing, or that it was removed by mistake — can expose you to liability for damages and costs. Please be sure before you file, and do not use this process to resolve disputes that are not about copyright.

9. Trademark & Address Complaints

Broadcasteer addresses (yourchurch.broadcasteer.com) are claimed by customers on a first-come basis, subject to a reserved list. We do not verify that a customer is entitled to the name they choose.

If a Broadcasteer address infringes your trademark or impersonates your organisation, write to legal@broadcasteer.com with your mark, its registration details if any, the address complained of, and why it misleads. We may reclaim or suspend an address in response — see the Terms of Use.
