Zoom Recording: Archive Procedure for Zoom Cloud Storage

Summary

Cloud Storage limitations and process for moving cloud recordings to other platforms.

Body

Archive Policy

Users can keep their videos on Zoom Cloud Storage for the duration of the semester. Recordings are set to auto-delete after 365 days when initially recorded. For example, a cloud recording created on Aug 23, 2022 would be deleted on Apr 30, 2023 . If a user has made a recording that they want to keep indefinitely, It is recommended to move a copy of desired recordings to Google Drive or Panopto.

Users are free to delete unwanted recordings at any point during the semester. Users will receive an email notification from Zoom <no-reply@zoom.us> 7 days before the cloud recording is going to be permanently deleted from trash.
