Completely locked out of account due to "Educational Data Collection Practices"

Hi-

 

I had to set up a new FREE account to make this post. I am the President of our elementary school PTA and we have a PAID Zoom Account that we purchased at the end of May. Somehow we have been locked out of our account because apparently we didn't fill out a form about "Educational Data Collection Practices" that we were completely unaware of. The account worked just fine for a month and then stopped working. I have called customer service and they have said they don't know how to help but put in a ticket for me. That was 3 days ago. No follow up. No resolution. We are still completely locked out of an account we paid for. Please help unlock this account! Below is the error message we get when we try to log in. We have filled out the form but still no resolution. There are no children involved with our PTA account. It is simply for adult pta members to have meetings. There is no suggestion on how to get the PAID account re-instated or released from this lock.

    I'm having the same issue. Did you figure out how to fix it?
