Zoom Transcript Opt-In Feature Request

Hello,

I work at a large tech company and would like to use Zoom transcripts for calls with candidates, including interviews. It would be extremely helpful to have an opt-in feature for transcripts so that the other participant or participants on the call must actively consent on their end before transcription begins. Ideally, admins could choose whether or not to enable this feature for all employees across the organization. This would allow us to use transcripts for candidate calls and interviews while better respecting data privacy laws across different countries, and it would provide verified proof that each candidate opted in to the transcript in the event of any legal questions or issues. Thank you.

    hi ​@MitchD 

    There are a number of transcript options available to setup at the account level and to make default for meetings.
    Just go to your zoom.us/profile/settings and put transcript in the search box
     

     

     

     

    Please like and mark as the solution if this helps

    All the best

    Hello, I don’t see an option about an opt-in feature. Can you please follow up to let me know if this specific feature exists? If not, can Zoom perhaps create something like this? I think it would be extremely helpful for any company trying to adopt transcripts for interviewing more broadly. Thanks.
