When TTG-ready publishers have problems

with the submitted name or Unique Online Identity (UOI):

  • If the TTG-RP has any objections, of any kind, to the name or the UOI being used to back up the TTG label...

    . . . the TTG-RP has the right to tell the video’s creator(s) that the TTG-RP will not publish the video with the submitted name or UOI (and thus will not publish it with the TTG label).

  • The video creator can then choose between:

    1. changing the name/UOI to something that the TTG-RP finds acceptable; or

    2. consenting to publication of the video without the TTG label and without the video creator’s name/UOI (should that solution be acceptable to the TTG-RP); or

    3. electing to not have the video published at all.

  • What kinds of things would be problematic?

    • A name that is judged to be excessively long (since URLs can be hundreds of characters long, TTG-RPs may want to set maximum character lengths for names and UOIs).

    • Any name or UOI that might lead viewers to infer that the video was created by a different person (famous or otherwise) — or by a different entity — than the person who is responsible for the video

    • Any name or UOI that contains words or phrases that the TTG-RP deems offensive, inappropriate, confusing, misleading, deceptive, or overtly political
