What to Do When Your Music Gets Flagged

Find these 4 things in the notice:

• The post or video that is affected.
• The track that was flagged, if the notice names it.
• Who made the claim.
• What the platform did: a warning, muted audio, or removal.

Check for a deadline. Some platforms give you a set number of days to respond. Save a screenshot of the notice.

There are 3 common cases. The track is a popular song. The track is from a stock or royalty-free library. Or the track is from a library that allows adult content.

A popular song almost never comes with a license for your content. For a library track, read that library's terms. Many royalty-free licenses ban adult or sexually explicit use. If yours does, that license may not help you with adult content.

Use the platform's dispute or appeal form. Attach the license PDF and your receipt or order details. Name the part of the license that allows your use.

For erosound tracks, Section 2 of the license allows adult and sexually explicit content. Anyone can read it at erosound.com/license. Then email support@erosound.com with the track name, the platform, a link to the post, and the claim details. We will look into it and help you find the license information you need.

Do not dispute a claim for music you have no license for. Replace the audio with licensed music and upload the video again, or remove the post.

Some platforms offer a DMCA counter-notice. A counter-notice is a legal statement that you make under penalty of perjury. Send one only if you are sure you have the rights, and read the platform's instructions first.

The OnlyFans terms of service say you must own your content or hold the licenses to post and sell it. That includes music made by someone else.

The ManyVids help center says creators can use background music in their vids. It also says that if a DMCA claim is filed against a vid, the vid must be taken down.

Other platforms, such as Fansly and cam sites, can also flag, mute, or remove audio. Their rules change, so check their help pages for the current process.

• Use only music with a license that allows adult content.
• Keep each license PDF in the same folder as the tracks. Keep the original file names, so you can match a track to its pack.
• Save your receipt or order page link for every pack you buy.
• On live streams, turn off radio, TV, and streaming apps in the room. Your microphone can pick them up.
• Keep a simple list of which tracks you used in which posts.

We do not register erosound music with Content ID or any similar system. Claims will not come from us. A platform or third party can still flag audio. The steps above work the same way when that happens.
