That device makes no mention of stripping HDCP and I can't find any evidence it does that on the maker's website. What makes you think it will strip HDCP?

I believe that's intentional (it would be illegal to import if it was advertised).

I've got 6 in use for lecture/talk recording without worrying about HDCP. Especially useful for presenters casting to chromecast or presenters using macbooks with DRM software (as blackmagic SDI converters don't support HDCP at all)

But lectures probably aren't DRM protected? HDCP isn't always on.
