YouTube’s Terms of Service prevents you from using their service in a group setting regardless of being in-person, church-related, or online. YouTube’s terms clearly state “you are not allowed to use the Service to view or listen to Content other than for personal, non-commercial use (for example, you may not publicly screen videos or stream music from the Service).” In addition, it also states “you are not allowed to access, reproduce, download, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, alter, modify or otherwise use any part of the Service or any Content…”
Additionally, Group’s intention in providing the Lifetree Kids YouTube channel is for kids and families to have ways to learn about and worship God at home. The Lifetree Kids YouTube channel was never intended to be used within church settings and shouldn’t be used in that way. You can purchase songs and videos for your ministry on the Group.com website.
