When should I blur content in a video?

Blur any item that reveals personal or sensitive info—faces, emails, IDs, student records, or medical details. Do it before publishing so viewers focus on the message, not private data. Use Visla to blur video online directly in your browser.

Does blur make my video compliant with privacy laws?

Blur helps protect personal data, but it does not guarantee compliance by itself. Follow your organization’s policies for GDPR, FERPA, HIPAA, or other rules, and review each video before sharing.

Can I track moving items like faces or license plates?

Yes. Add a blur to the scene, place it over the target, and adjust the timing on the timeline. For longer clips, split into scenes to keep the blur accurate as things move.

How many blurs can I use?

You can use one blur per scene. If you need more coverage, duplicate the scene or split it into smaller scenes, then add a blur in each.

Will blur hurt readability or captions?

No. Blur only covers the region you pick. On‑screen text outside the blur and your subtitles remain sharp so learning sticks.
