Video
HIPAA-compliant video hosting for healthcare marketing. Upload a video, get automatic transcoding, captions, a poster image, an embeddable player, and engagement analytics.
Host your marketing video on Ours Privacy instead of a third-party video platform. Upload a file and you get a version converted for reliable playback in every modern browser, a still image shown before it plays, English captions, a player in your brand color you can paste onto any page, and engagement reporting, all served from your own domain.
Video exists because embedding a consumer video platform on a healthcare site sends viewer data to that platform. Ours Privacy hosts playback itself, so viewing a video does not hand a third party the visitor's IP address, page URL, or watch behavior.
Open Videos in appWhy use Ours Privacy Video
- No third-party video platform in the page. Playback, captions, and poster images are served from Ours Privacy, so no consumer video service sees your visitors.
- Processing is automatic. Upload once and transcoding, poster frames, and English captions run without any further action.
- Captions you can correct. Edit the auto-generated captions one line at a time in the dashboard, including the moment each line appears, or upload a caption file you made elsewhere.
- Built for accessibility. The player conforms to WCAG 2.2 Level AA and Section 508, and the dashboard warns you when a chosen player color fails contrast requirements.
- Engagement analytics built in. Starts, completions, unique viewers, and average watch time are reported per video, with no extra tracking code on the page.
- One video or a whole library. Place a single video anywhere on your site, or group videos into a channel and publish the set as one browsable page.
- Search-friendly. The embed snippet can include
VideoObjectstructured data so search engines can index the video.
How it fits together
- Upload a video in the dashboard. The file goes straight to storage, then transcoding and transcription start automatically.
- Review the generated assets. Pick a poster frame, correct the captions, and set the title and description.
- Copy the embed snippet and paste it into your page, or take the raw MP4, caption, and poster URLs and use your own player.
- Watch engagement in Video Analytics as visitors start, progress through, and complete the video.

Works with the rest of the platform

- Web Analytics: video engagement events land alongside your other events, so you can segment viewers like any other audience.
- Experimentation: test a page with the video against one without it, or test two different videos, and measure the difference in conversions.
- Session Replay and Heatmaps: watch what visitors did on the page around the video, not just inside the player.
- Destinations: forward video engagement events to platforms such as Google Analytics 4 with your existing event mappings.
- Vimeo source: if your videos already live on Vimeo and you want to keep them there, track engagement through that source instead.
