Control video and audio recordings

Sally can store a video and an audio recording of every meeting. The privacy settings decide when that is allowed. You pick one of five options for the video, from always to never, and the audio recording has its own switch.

This guide shows you where to find the setting, what the five options mean, and which one fits which situation. The same area holds the privacy notice by email and the privacy notice in the meeting.

Who can change this

This setting applies organization-wide, it is defined the same way for everyone in the company.
Only owners and admins can change it, members cannot.

Figure 2: The five options for the video recording

Option	What Sally stores	When to use it
Always store	The video is always stored when a recording took place. This is the default behavior.	You want to document every meeting in full.
Only for internal meetings	The video is only stored when all participants are from your organization.	External conversations should not be recorded.
Only for external meetings	The video is only stored when at least one external participant is present.	Customer and other external conversations are what count.
Only when I am the host	The video is only stored when the user is the host of the meeting.	Everyone should decide about their own recordings.
Never	The video is never stored, only the transcript. This is the compliance setup.	Your policy does not allow video recordings.

5. Click Save. Until you do, the section shows Unsaved changes at the bottom.

• Off: Sally stores no audio recording.
