Hello, I have been hit with a copyright strike on one of my monetized videos for the use of a copywritten song in the video. The song I used is called "Polka Dot" by the Eclecto-Hijinx Orchestra. I found this soundtrack off of Position Music since Freedom! has a partnership with them, the song even says that it is part of the Freedom! collection. In summary, I used a song from Position Music that was covered by Freedom!'s partnership yet I have been hit with this strike. I plan on disputing it, but I am not sure as to which cattegory it belongs to:
Here are the options for dispute:
Black Ops 2 - Funny Fails Montage - 1080p HD - 60 fps
I believe this copyright claim is not valid because:
1) I own the CD / DVD or bought the song online.
2) I'm not selling the video or making any money from it.
3) I gave credit in the video.
4) The video is my original content and I own all of the rights to it.
5) I have a license or written permission from the proper rights holder to use this material.
6) My use of the content meets the legal requirements for fair use or fair dealing under applicable copyright laws.
7) The content is in the public domain or is not eligible for copyright protection.
If anyone here can help, I would greatly appreciate any insight as to resolve the situation. Thank you for your time.
