Important Notes

  • Private, highly-restricted data may not be used with Zoom AI Companion.
  • Before entering non-public data into other generative AI tools, ensure they have been properly vetted for your data classification.
  • Zoom does not use any of the data captured by the AI tools to train a Large Language Model. Data may be passed to third-party AI model providers for processing but is deleted after processing completes. Find more information about how Zoom's AI Companion handles data.
