Explicit consent requires users to agree when certain features, such as meeting recordings, AI Assistant, and save transcript, are started in meetings. This is different from implicit consent, such as visual and audio notifications, which do not require users to agree.

The explicit consent feature is turned off by default. You can turn it on for your users and organizations.

Users joining from desktop, mobile, web client, or paired devices will see a popup that asks them to agree whenever a consent-required feature is turned on. If the user doesn't agree, then they will be placed in read-only mode in meetings, where they can listen to the meeting but their audio and video are turned off, sharing is disabled, and chat is turned off until they agree to the consent. Implicit consent (audio notification) will continue as is, without change.

This does not apply if users are joining a meeting using a device, PSTN, VDI, and older version clients.

Turn on explicit consent for users

Turn on explicit consent for users before turning it on for the organization. If this setting is turned off for a user, they won't have access to it, regardless of whether it's turned on at the organization level. See the User override section in Configure settings templates in Control Hub for more information.

You can use a settings template to turn on explicit consent for multiple users. See Apply a settings template to a group of users or a location in Configure settings templates in Control Hub.
