The Media Privacy module prevents media providers like YouTube, Vimeo or SoundCloud from placing a cookie as soon as a page containing embedded media is loaded, even if the user did not watch the video.
In order to play the media the user has to confirm, that she wants to start streaming the video or sound. Upon confirmation the media object gets rendered and the cookie by the provider is stored in the browser.
The module extends the functionality of media and its complemantary modules as media_youtube, media_vimeo and media_soundcloud.
