he impact of strikes
This is the first strike applied to your account. We understand that users seldom intend to violate our policies. That's why strikes don't last forever – if you don't receive another strike for six months, your initial strike will expire. However, it's important to remember that additional strikes could prevent you from posting content to YouTube or even lead to your account being terminated.
How you can respond
If you believe this was a mistake, we'd like to hear from you. Please follow both of these steps as simply deleting the video won't resolve the strike on your account.
The next time you sign in you will be asked to acknowledge this strike on your account.
If you would like to appeal this strike, please visit the Video Manager section of your channel. Our team will thoroughly review your appeal and will contact you again very soon.
Sincerely,
- The YouTube Team
