Zoom Cloud Recording Policy
Updated: August 3, 2023
The Zoom cloud recording feature allows the host or co-host to record a meeting or webinar to Zoom’s cloud server. The lbl.gov Zoom account has an overall cloud storage limit that is shared across the organization. Cloud recordings will be deleted automatically after they have been stored for 30 days to ensure that the cloud recording feature remains available to everyone.
