Who does it apply to?
Any website or app that embeds video content and uses analytics or advertising trackers: media, healthcare, retail, and education.
What Privaini detects
Video-player pixels, replay widgets, and session-recording tools firing on video engagement without prior informed consent, observed from the outside.
