When I conduct meeting as a host, is it safe to share my desktop documents with zoom? All data on my laptop is safe ?

Hi, Anjalis. 

 

What do you mean? Do you have people from Zoom in your meetings?

 

Maybe this link will be of help: https://blog.zoom.us/4-ways-zoom-works-to-protect-user-privacy/

Hi @Anjalis , 

When sharing your screen, Zoom is not directly accessing your data, just broadcasting a view of your screen to others in the meeting. That broadcast is only visible to other attendees in your meeting and is not saved, unless you are recording your meeting. In any case, only you have access to that recording, as Zoom cannot view any recordings.
