Can I disable analytics for privacy?

Most users make use of our landing pages and embed codes. The landing page URL is made to be shared or emailed. The embed code is a snippet of HTML that is copied to your site to make the video appear there.

In both cases your video is presented in the player our video CMS provides.

Normally the player sends analytics data. That lets you see how popular your content is. For example we record data about where in the world the video was played and on what device/browser. However we take privacy seriously. Since we do not show adverts, we do not need to build profiles of viewers in order to target them.

But you may not want our player to send any analytics data. You can do this within the dashboard using our video CMS. Assuming you are signed in as a user with sufficient access, you should see a More link in the top menu. Click that. You should see a Players option. You should see your players listed. If you currently have none, make a new player. Within that you should see a “Do Not Track” toggle. Make sure that is enabled (true) and then save the player.

Now all videos that are set to use that custom player (you can see from a video’s Appearance tab) should respect that setting. This can take a few minutes to update.
