Basic account participation limit

I have the free basic Zoom account, and have a meeting coming up which will last several hours. As just a participant, and not a host, will the 40 minute limit kick me out of the meeting?

 

Thank you

Hi Huma

 

Thank you for your reply. I had found that article before posting, but it did not explicitly state whether as a participant on a basic account, I can attend a meeting longer than 40 minutes. Over the weekend, I have spoken to a friend who uses basic Zoom and attends meetings longer than 40 minutes so I have my answer now.

 

Thank you for your input.
