With Aimy Video Embedder PRO you can easily embed videos from YouTube and Vimeo on your website. Video plugin for Joomla! 3 and 4.
An integrated two-click mode allows a GDPR friendly* embedding of videos.
Embedding Videos GDPR friendly (Two-Click Mode)
Aimy Video Embedder has used the "enhanced privacy for embedded videos" for quite a long time. This option is provided by YouTube to prevent the setting of cookies unless the user watches the video. With the two-click mode in the PRO version you can enhance privacy even more.Usually, if you embed a video from a platform like YouTube on your Joomla! website, data of your visitors is transferred to the platform directly when going on that page - even if the user does not watch the video. According to the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation / EU privacy law) a user should be informed about that — at best before data is transferred.
With the two-click mode the video is replaced by a placeholder, that is located on your server. This way, the visitor has to click once to load the video and once to play it (two click activation). Within the placeholder you can give information on your privacy policy.
Aimy Video Embedder provides a default placeholder in English. You may enter an individual text and/or an image that is shown instead of the video. The text is translatable with common Joomla! functions.
