Is it possible to share a single zoom account between two people?

    Hi @Pczwartos, please be aware that sharing a Zoom Account is against our Terms of Service (TOS). You can look into our TOS here at https://zoom.us/terms under 'Use of services and your responsibilities'.

    I  need more explanation.

     

    Per Zoom T's & C's"

    "Your and Your End Users’ use of the Services and shall abide by, and ensure compliance with, all Laws in connection with Your and each End User’s use of the Services, including but not limited to Laws related to recording, intellectual property, privacy and export control. Use of the Services is void where prohibited."

    (Bold mine)

    Our non-profit (church) has 800+ members. We purchased Zoom accounts for our and our member's use to conduct our church activities, including volunteer, management, outreach, and other aspects of operations. These are our "end-users." How can we successfully utilize the Zoom service if each of the users, which are individually assigned the use of our Zoom account for a particular event, must be effectively authenticated through an admin email account?

     

    I must have this wrong somehow, but this appears to be what is happening.

    Hey, @Abqtech  --  I think you might be  reading a little too much into the TOS.  What it's talking about is allowing other people to LOG INTO A USER ACCOUNT.  In other words, you can't publish 5-10 email addresses and passwords for a few Zoom accounts and just let everyone log into whichever one they want.

     

    If, like most Business, Enterprise, or Educational accounts, you have many users authorized on your account, that functionality is provided assuming that each user will have access to his/her own user account -- not sharing usernames and passwords with other users.

     

    Does that help?
