This document outlines the operational principles of Y2Mate software and delineates its intended function in accordance with established user rights under United States law. It provides clarity on the software's technical design and its alignment with the principles of personal, non-commercial use.

Foundational User Rights Under U.S. Law

The Copyright Law of the United States (Title 17) establishes several foundational rights for users of copyrighted material. The most significant of these is the Doctrine of Fair Use.

Chapter 1: Subject Matter and Scope of Copyright 

§ 107. Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use
Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 106 and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords...for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching..., scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright.

The primary function of Y2Mate software is to serve as a tool for users to exercise these rights for personal, non-commercial purposes.

Y2Mate Stance on the DMCA

U.S. Copyright Law explicitly regulates the circumvention of technological protection measures. Y2Mate software is engineered and operated in strict observance of this statute.

Chapter 12: Copyright Protection and Management Systems

§ 1201. Circumvention of copyright protection systems
(a) VIOLATIONS REGARDING CIRCUMVENTION OF TECHNOLOGICAL MEASURES.—(1)(A) No person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title.
Source: www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap12.html

Y2Mate does not circumvent any technological measure that effectively controls access to a protected work.

Y2Mate’s Technical Method of Operation

The operational design of the Y2Mate software ensures compliance with the above statutes by making a critical distinction between controlling access and enabling personal use post-authorization.

Respect for Access-Control DRM

Streaming services use DRM to ensure that only authorized subscribers can view their content. Y2Mate fully respects this protection. It is a mandatory prerequisite that a user must first be logged into the respective service with a valid, active account. The software cannot and does not bypass any login, authentication, or subscription validation system. Therefore, access is never achieved by means of the Y2Mate itself.

Facilitating a Personal Copy Post-Authorization

Once a subscriber is authenticated by the service provider, their browser or application receives an encrypted data stream which is then decrypted for immediate playback. Y2Mate operates at this stage. It does not involve the breaking of any encryption; it merely creates a local copy of the data that the user is already entitled to view.

Functional Parallels in Standard Web Browsers

The concept of capturing data after decryption is not exclusive to Y2Mate. Experienced users can use the built-in "Developer Tools" available in popular browsers such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox to track network activity, locate media segments, and save them locally.

Although this process can be complicated for most users, it shows that the ability to save such data is naturally part of how modern browsers operate. Y2Mate automates this existing technical function and offers a user-friendly interface without introducing any fundamentally new way to bypass protections. The software does not defeat any effective safeguards beyond what standard browser functions already bypass.

Fair Use and Provider Agreements

Regarding Fair Use: Users are advised that the Fair Use doctrine (§ 107) is subject to a nuanced, case-by-case legal analysis, and it does not provide blanket permission for all personal reproductions.

Regarding Provider Terms and Conditions: Subscribers to commercial streaming services are bound by legally enforceable Terms of Service (ToS) that contain provisions that expressly prohibit the reproduction or downloading of content. The onus of reviewing and adhering to these contractual obligations rests exclusively with the end-user. Y2Mate disclaims any and all liability for user actions that constitute a breach of such third-party agreements.

*Legal Notice

  • This document delineates the official position of Y2Mate and is not intended to serve as legal advice.
  • The legal analysis and positions contained herein pertain specifically to the copyright laws of the United States.
  • All information is provided on an "as is" basis, without warranty of any kind.
