-    <strong>The overall architecture for addressing privacy in DAP is still  
-    under construction. As it is finalized, there may be changes made to  
-    this specification to reflect requirements or support for privacy-related  
-    functionality.</strong>

-    <h3>Privacy considerations for implementers of Capture functionality</h3>
+    <p>This specification builds upon the security and privacy protections provided by the [[!HTML5]] <code>input type="file"</code> and the [[!FILE-API]] specifications; in particular, it is expected that any offer to start capturing content from the user’s device would require a specific user interaction on an HTML element that is entirely controled by the user agent.</p>
 
-    <p>A conforming implementation of this specification MUST provide a
-    mechanism that protects the user's privacy and this mechanism SHOULD
-    ensure that privacy information is not revealed without user's
-    informed consent.</p>
+    <p>In addition to the requirements already highlighted in the [[!HTML5]] and [[!FILE-API]] specifications, implementors should take care of additional leakage of privacy-sensitive data from captured media. For instance, embedding the user’s location in a captured media might transmit more private data than the user might be expecting.</p>
