First off, look at the top of that GitHub page:

⚠️⚠️⚠️ This library has been deprecated and will be removed in the future. Use PlayerKit instead. ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Second, both VIMVideoPlayer and PlayerKit are intended to make it easier for developers to play back video files -- you are providing a link to a webpage (https://vimeo.com/342236564) instead of a link to a video file (like http://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_480p_surround-fix.avi).

Finally, note that a Vimeo video's playback privacy and embed privacy settings only apply to the video when played on vimeo.com or when using the Vimeo embedded player. Those privacy settings do not apply to direct video file links -- anyone or any service with those video file links will have access to them.
