This clause means your meeting conversations, shared files, and other content may be used to train AI systems, which raises significant privacy concerns especially in sensitive professional or personal contexts.
The agreement states that Zoom may use content from meetings, chats, recordings, and other interactions to improve its services and train AI models, subject to available opt-out controls in account settings. The terms also include a binding arbitration clause and class action waiver for US users, meaning disputes must proceed through individual arbitration rather than litigation or class proceedings unless users opt out in writing within 30 days. You can opt out of AI content training by adjusting settings in your Zoom account portal, and opt out of arbitration by sending written notice to Zoom's legal department within 30 days of first agreeing to these terms.
