Features & Capabilities

Privacy Enhanced Mode for Embedded YouTube is a Chrome extension that activates YouTube's privacy-friendly "no-cookie" mode on every embedded video you encounter across the web. By doing so, it significantly reduces cookie usage, minimizes data collection, and ensures that embedded videos don't impact your personal watch history on YouTube.

Ideal for privacy-conscious users, the extension operates silently in the background, upgrading embedded YouTube videos without affecting your main YouTube site experience. Users can access an Options page via the Add-ons Manager to track how many videos have been secured using the Privacy Enhanced Mode. This tool empowers you to enjoy video content while safeguarding your privacy online.

A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
