"For such features, Calendly may provide you with functionality to help inform Participants and other individuals of this activity. In some cases, this functionality may also help you obtain consent. However, you are solely responsible for providing any notices to, and obtaining consent from, Participants and other individuals in connection with any recording, including AI-generated transcriptions and summaries of such recordings, as required by Applicable Law. Calendly makes no representations or warranties that the above-mentioned functionality is sufficient to obtain consent under Applicable Law.Excerpt from Calendly's Terms of Use
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Recording consent obligations vary significantly by jurisdiction. In the US, federal wiretapping law and state-level two-party or all-party consent statutes apply, with states including California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Washington requiring consent from all parties to a recorded conversation. Under GDPR, recording of personal data in meetings requires a lawful basis and data subject information obligations. The agreement's placement of sole responsibility on the customer engages these frameworks directly. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: High. The disclaimer that Calendly's consent functionality is not warranted to be legally sufficient, combined with sole customer liability, means customers using Notetaker in multi-party or cross-jurisdictional meetings face material legal exposure if their consent processes are inadequate. AI-generated transcriptions that include personal data create additional GDPR and CCPA compliance obligations. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: Two-party consent states in the US including California, Illinois, and Pennsylvania create heightened exposure for customers recording meetings with participants in those states. EU and EEA participants require GDPR-compliant consent or another lawful basis. Customers operating internationally should assess recording consent requirements in each jurisdiction where participants are located. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers deploying Notetaker across distributed teams or external client meetings should assess whether their existing privacy notices, meeting terms, and consent workflows address AI-generated transcription and summarization. Vendor contracts with customers that use Notetaker may need to be updated to reflect recording and transcription practices. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal and privacy teams should implement jurisdiction-specific recording consent procedures for any use of Calendly Notetaker, conduct a data protection impact assessment for AI transcription and summarization activities involving personal data, and verify that participant-facing disclosures satisfy applicable notice requirements prior to enabling the feature.
