About information collected by the Video on Demand / Video Hosting and Sharing Service

The Video on Demand / Video Hosting and Sharing application, Kaltura, tracks and compiles details about the behavior of media viewers and owners, including but not limited to media views, edits, and shares, on both the aggregate level and, for users who are logged in to the service, individual level. This information is available to content owners, such as Cornell University faculty and staff, and may indicate that an individual has viewed particular content.

About the accuracy of analytics compiled by the Video on Demand / Video Hosting and Sharing Service

Analytics data and reports from the Video on Demand / Video Hosting and Sharing application, Kaltura, may not accurately reflect the activity of users who have ad-blocking extensions or add-ins enabled on web browsers. Because of this interference with the data Kaltura compiles, content owners should not rely solely on Kaltura analytics to make decisions or assessments about user behavior – for example, about whether a student user has actually viewed particular media to fulfill a graded course assignment.
