- Furthermore, Youth 2000 reviews all its content. Therefore, any material that Youth 2000 feels is most appropriate for those aged over 18 will only be made available to those who register with a Date of Birth over the age of 18.

- The views expressed by the speakers are their own, however these should be reflective of Catholic teaching. Youth 2000 is not responsible for the manner of expression, but reserves the right to not use, restrict or remove any material from its platforms that it does not wish to use, for reasons undisclosed and at any time. As Youth 2000 uses multiple speakers, any issues with content may be forwarded directly to the contributor who expressed them.
- Youth 2000 reserves the right to make content deemed fit for U18s public. For example, Youth 2000 may wish to allow television or media broadcaster to broadcasts elements of its event, or it may allow elements of the retreat (those deemed suitable) available on the Internet and social media without registration.
