What data is included in "Optional Usage & Diagnostic Data"

[cakoose]

I just got an email from Zoom:

Zoom will be adding a new setting within the Admin Portal to give you more control over the types of telemetry data Zoom collects to improve our products and services. Starting August 19, 2023, admins and owners can visit the Zoom web portal under Advanced > Privacy to see two new toggles: “Required Service & Diagnostic Data” and “Optional Usage & Diagnostic Data”. Both settings are available at the Account and User Level.

What is included in "Required Service & Diagnostic Data" or "Optional Usage & Diagnostic Data"? The email doesn't explain.

We were just talking about needing to get a more specific information than "collects performance and usage data to provide and improve the performance of Zoom services."
I'm curious to see if someone provides an official answer.

That makes sense, but it is now 8/21 and these settings are not visible on my account. Am I missing something? Does this only apply to certain accounts?

Hi,

has this privacy setting been sacrificed in the new Terms of Service, valid since August 11th?

Hi everyone!

Thank you for sending in your questions.

Based on the feedback we received from customers since announcing these new Privacy and Data management settings, we have decided to delay the launch of these new settings at this time. We plan to introduce these settings in the future, and will share additional information when we get closer to implementation.
