# Videokr privacy and security questions

A Videokr embed sets no advertising cookies and builds no cross-site profile of viewers; analytics are first-party and aggregate. Videos can be unlisted, password-protected, or locked to specific domains with wildcard rules, and the leads you capture belong to you — exportable and deletable at any time.

## Cookies and tracking

The player measures playback for your analytics, not for an ad network. There is no advertising cookie, no cross-site profile and no third-party retargeting pixel, which is the practical difference from embedding a video from a platform whose business is advertising. See [privacy](/docs/privacy).

## Keeping video private

- **Unlisted** — reachable by link, kept out of sitemaps and public listings.
- **Password** — the public page issues a token once the password is entered.
- **Domain lock** — an embed only plays on hostnames you list, wildcards allowed, so a copied embed code is worthless elsewhere.

[Private video hosting](/guides/password-protect-video) covers which to use when.

## Your data

Leads are yours: exportable as CSV, deletable on request, and pushed to your systems by webhook. Videos remain your files; nothing prevents you from taking them elsewhere.

## FAQ

### Does Videokr use tracking cookies?

No advertising cookies and no cross-site profiling. Playback measurement is first-party and aggregate, used only for your analytics.

### Is Videokr GDPR-friendly?

The embed sets no advertising cookies and collects no viewer profile, and captured leads are your data — exportable and deletable on request. You remain the controller of the emails you collect and should say so in your own privacy notice.

### Can I make a video private on Videokr?

Yes: mark it unlisted so it stays out of public listings and sitemaps, protect it with a password, or restrict its embeds to specific domains with wildcard rules.

### Can someone steal my embed code and use my video?

Domain locking prevents it — the embed refuses to play on hostnames you have not listed. Videokr does not offer studio-grade DRM beyond that.

### Who owns the videos and leads on Videokr?

You do. Source files remain yours, leads export as CSV and can be deleted, and analytics are readable and exportable per video.
