# No DRM

> This version does not include DRM. A viewer who can play a video can also record it. Here is what our protections do and do not stop.

This version of segmnt does not include DRM. DRM is the technology that stops a
viewer from downloading or replaying a video. We do not have it, and we do not
describe our protections as DRM.

## What we decided

* No DRM in this version.
* Our protections are signed playback links and the domain check.
  Read [Playback links](https://docs.segmnt.cloud/how-it-works/playback-links.md) and
  [How playback protection works](https://docs.segmnt.cloud/playback-protection.md).

## Why

* DRM is high cost. It was outside the scope of this first version.
* A viewer who can see a video can record it. Our controls do not stop that.
  We say so openly, so you can plan for it.

## What it means for you

* Do not promise your customers that their videos cannot be copied.
* If you need DRM, this version does not meet that need.
* Our protections make casual copying and link sharing harder. They do not stop
  someone who has access to the video.
