An access policy module automatically applies an access policy to a video. Access policies frequently require manual review of an item to determine a proper access policy for the video, such as whether the video should be taken down, age-limited, or permitted general access. Results of a manual review of a video are stored along with the portion of the video that was manually reviewed and the access policy applied to the video. When a trigger event occurs indicating access policies should be considered for a video, the video is compared to reviewed portions of videos that were manually reviewed to determine if an access policy can be automatically applied with sufficient confidence. When insufficient confidence is reached or conflicting access policies both have high confidence, the video is scheduled for manual review with a priority level based on the possible access level of the video.
