Sharing personal data with advertising networks and social media companies for marketing purposes is one of the most common triggers for privacy rights requests and regulatory scrutiny, and may constitute a sale or sharing of personal information under California law.
Interpretive note: The specific data categories shared with advertising partners and the precise mechanisms by which sharing occurs are not exhaustively enumerated in the policy, creating some interpretive uncertainty about the full scope of this provision.
The privacy statement states that Zoom collects meeting content including audio, video, transcripts, and chat messages, as well as device identifiers, usage data, and behavioral information for advertising and analytics purposes. The statement discloses that Zoom may use customer content to train AI and machine learning models, with opt-out controls assigned to account administrators rather than individual participants, which may limit individual users' practical ability to prevent this use.
