TikTok is one of the most popular social network nowadays. You can create and share your videos but do not forget to protect your content. The short videos can be watched fluidly and fast, alternating between creators in just seconds. If you want to use TikTok professionally, you need to protect your intellectual property on the network.
The privacy and security settings are important to use TikTok in an intelligent and professional way. The app offers an option to protect your intellectual property when sharing videos on the network. This will not allow other users to download the videos you share so they can’t use them.
Set up TikTok to protect your intellectual property
If an user downloads your videos, he or she can share them or use them with no restrictions. A TikTok video downloaded is just a multimedia file you can play in any other multimedia player available. To avoid this TikTok grants you a setting to restrict downloading your videos. Do the following:
- Open the TikTok app.
- Press the Profile button in the bottom of the screen.
- Press the Menu button with three horizontal bars.
- Select the option Settings and privacy.
- In the Privacy section you can watch a Download zone.
- Here you have to turn off the Download videos switch.
The default configuration of TikTok enables other users to download your videos. Following this configuration you can stop the permission to protect your intellectual property.

If you want your account to become viral and work as an influencer or creative, it’s important to protect your content. The option to disable video downloads from your account is the easiest and fastest step to secure your own videos in the TikTok world.
