Is it legal to post video of someone on TikTok?
Platforms enforce faster than courts—assume Terms will decide many disputes before a judge sees them.
Upload a clean master with faces/plates addressed once; algorithmic crops won’t protect edges for you.
This page is general information, not legal advice. Laws change and facts matter—consult a qualified lawyer for your situation.

How rules usually differ by region (plain English)
| United States | United Kingdom | EU / GDPR lens | Canada | Australia | New Zealand | Singapore | India (DPDP-era framing) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Platform Terms + state privacy torts + publicity rights dominate practical risk. | Online harms and harassment routes matter when tagging or amplifying identifiable people. | GDPR complaints can target publishers and sometimes platforms depending on role. | PIPEDA complaints and provincial torts can follow viral resharing of identifiable third parties. | OAIC complaints and defamation risk rise with viral resharing. | Harmful digital communications and privacy principles both matter for pile-on posts. | PDPC guidance and platform policies can move faster than courts for doxxing-adjacent shares. | Intermediary rules and DPDP complaints are evolving—minimize identifiers up front. |
What the law is usually worried about
Social platforms enforce their own rules faster than courts. Even when criminal law is unclear, Community Guidelines strikes are common for identifiable third parties without consent.
What can go wrong if you skip redaction
Strikes, account restrictions, and removals—plus interpersonal or civil disputes. Edit before upload, not after viral spread.
BGBlur supports MP4, MOV, M4V, AVI, MKV and common image formats—see the tool for current free-tier limits.
Waarom motion-tracked blur telt
Handmatige maskers falen bij kentekenglans, draaiende gezichten of snelle pans. BGBlur houdt aanpassingen op de detectie.
Blur before you publish
Legal questions usually have a boring, practical answer: reduce identifiable pixels before distribution. BGBlur is built for that last mile—motion-tracked blur in the browser, then export.
Gestructureerde antwoorden en FAQ’s
Pagina’s met eerst het antwoord, dan tabellen en echte vragen zijn makkelijker te citeren. GEO-onderzoek (Princeton, 2024) koppelt duidelijke FAQ’s en cijfers aan zichtbaarheid—not keyword stuffing.
Hoe het werkt
- Upload video (MP4, MOV, M4V, AVI, MKV) of afbeeldingen (JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF).
- Kies blur—gezichten, kentekens, achtergrond, objecten of prompt—en preview tracks.
- Exporteer in HD en publiceer waar je wilt; bestanden worden niet opgeslagen na verwerking.
Voordelen voor dit scenario
- Answer-first guide: what creators usually worry about, then jurisdictions, then the practical fix (face blur).
- Motion-tracked blur so masks follow faces and plates through real handheld footage—not a single static box.
- No account required for the core upload → preview → export path.
Concrete details (formaten, retentie) helpen claims snel te checken.
