(“Zoom”, "we", "us", or "our"). If you are accepting these API Terms on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant to us that you have the authority to do so (and for clarity, all other references to “you” in these API Terms refer to such entity).  The term “including” means “including without limitation.” 

 

 

  1. Overview
    1. Overview of Program. "Zoom APIs" means (i) any form of machine accessible application programming interface that Zoom makes available which provides access to Zoom’s services or software, including all associated tools, elements, components and executables therein; (ii) Zoom’s Client software development kits (“SDK”); (iii) any Zoom sample code that enables interactions with Zoom’s services or software; and (iv) documentation related to the foregoing.

    2. Applicable Agreements. The Zoom Terms of Service or Master Subscription Agreement, as applicable, the Developer Documentation, and these API Terms (collectively, the “Terms”) govern your use of Zoom APIs and by accessing or using the Zoom APIs you agree to such Terms.  In the event of a conflict between these API Terms and the Zoom Terms of Service or Master Subscription Agreement (as applicable) or Developer Documentation, these API Terms control with respect to your use of the Zoom APIs.
    3. Modification of Terms. WE MAY MODIFY THESE API TERMS AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE TO YOU. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE ZOOM APIs FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF A SUBSEQUENT VERSION OF THESE API TERMS WILL BE DEEMED YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THESE API TERMS.
  2. Use of the Zoom APIs
    1. Authorization and License. Subject to your compliance with the Terms, Zoom grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable, revocable license to develop, test, and support your Application, and allow customers of Zoom’s services or software to use your integration of the Zoom APIs within your Application. You may use the Zoom APIs only as expressly permitted in the Terms.  Neither these API Terms nor the availability of any information, data or other content in the Zoom APIs shall be construed to grant you a license to any other copyrighted material owned by Zoom or any Zoom trademark, service mark, logo, trade name, trade dress, or slogan, subject to the exceptions set forth in Section 7 herein for Zoom SDK Apps (defined in Section 6.1).  You agree not to use the Zoom APIs to (i) create, design, develop, enhance, produce, sell, license, promote, market, or distribute any material, software, or content that is intended for any use other than use with Zoom’s services or software; (ii) recreate the features or functionality of Zoom’s services or software; or (iii) create or distribute any derivative work (as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101) of the Zoom APIs except as expressly permitted herein. No other licenses are granted to you by Zoom under these API Terms. 
    2. Limitations of Use. Zoom has the right to limit or suspend your use of or access to the Zoom APIs in its sole discretion and without prior notice or liability to you.

You agree to such limitations and will not attempt to circumvent them. 
    3. Your Responsibilities. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for the content, development, operation, support, and maintenance of your Application, as well as all activity related to your use of the Zoom APIs. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that your use of the Zoom APIs and your Application will not infringe, misappropriate, or violate a third party's patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, moral rights or other proprietary or intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or otherwise result in the violation of any applicable laws or regulations.
    4. Registration and Accounts. To access and use the Zoom APIs, you must register for and maintain a Zoom account.  
    5. Publishable URL for Internal Use. You may request a uniform resource locator (“URL”) that permits you and your employees or agents accessing Zoom services under your account to install and use your Application (“Publishable URL”). A Publishable URL may be provided to you in Zoom’s sole discretion. In the event a Publishable URL is provided to you by Zoom, you shall not: (i) use this Publishable URL to distribute your Application to any third parties; or (ii) make the Publishable URL available anywhere accessible by third parties. This Publishable URL is strictly for use by you to conduct limited, private beta tests of your Application. Zoom may revoke or limit the Publishable URL at any time, without notice, in its sole discretion. 
    6. Modifications and Updates. Zoom regularly updates and adds features to the Zoom APIs and may also remove or modify features. Zoom generally explains how to use new or modified features in the associated documentation and in communications about the Zoom APIs. You acknowledge and agree that Zoom may modify, amend, change, or deprecate all or part of the Zoom APIs at any time in its sole discretion and without prior notice. Zoom shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to you of any such actions.  You are responsible for monitoring updates to the Zoom APIs and must promptly and without undue delay develop, update, or modify your Application at your sole cost and expense to ensure it remains compatible and functions with the current version of the Zoom APIs.

    1. Tokens. You shall (i) not share your keys or credentials obtained for use of the Zoom APIs (“Tokens”), (ii) keep such Tokens and all login information secure and confidential, and (iii) use them as your sole means of accessing the Zoom APIs.
    2. Security Requirements. You represent and warrant that your Application does not contain any security vulnerabilities and has been developed to operate with the Zoom APIs in a secure manner. Your network, operating system and the software of your servers, databases, and computer systems must be properly configured to securely operate your Application and securely, collect, use and store Application Data. You and your Application will employ reasonable technical, administrative and physical safeguards that:
      1. comply with applicable laws and regulations, including Privacy Laws;
      2. meet or exceed applicable industry standards or self-regulatory requirements; 
      3. protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the Application Data, including Application Data that relates to any identifiable natural person and other information governed by Privacy Laws (“Personal Information”); and
      4. prevent Security Incidents.     
    3. Security Incidents. For the purposes of this Section, a “Security Incident” means the accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized access to, use, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction of (i) the Zoom APIs; (ii) Application Data; (iii) your Application; (iv) your or your service providers’ information technology systems and facilities on which the Application depends; (v) Zoom’s services; and/or (vi) Zoom’s applications or systems. In the event you become aware of or suspect a Security Incident, you will notify Zoom about such Security Incident immediately and in no event later than 24 hours after you become aware of it.  You agree to preserve evidence regarding the Security Incident, and provide us with information we request regarding the Security Incident, including an explanation of the nature and root cause of the Security Incident, the categories and approximate number of affected individuals and/or organizations, the categories and approximate quantity of affected records, the likely consequences of the Security Incident, and corrective action being taken. You agree to take such actions as Zoom may reasonably request to respond to, investigate, and mitigate adverse effects of any Security Incident.  Before you communicate with the public (e.g., via press release, blogs, social media, bulletin boards) or any third party (that is not your agent) about a Security Incident, you will consult with Zoom regarding, and provide Zoom an advance copy of, such communication, provided so doing is permitted by applicable laws and regulations and does not unreasonably interfere with your investigation or remediation of the Security Incident or your compliance with your legal obligations to give notifications about the Security Incident.  
    4. Security Review, Monitoring, and Remediation: Zoom and/or an independent third party selected by Zoom (and acting at Zoom’s direction) may, at Zoom’s sole cost and discretion, perform monitoring or a security review of your Application(s) to ensure that your Application(s) complies with the Terms and that your Application does not threaten the security, integrity, availability or performance of Zoom’s services, software, or applications (a “Security Review”). Zoom shall provide you with prior written notice of any Security Review. You shall provide Zoom, at no charge, full user-level access to your Application(s) and shall cooperate with Zoom in the Security Review and provide such information as Zoom may reasonably request to complete the Security Review.  You represent and warrant that all information you provide to Zoom in connection with your Application is true and accurate. Except as required by applicable law, Zoom shall keep the results of Security Review confidential.  Zoom may require, at its sole discretion and in light of your use of the Zoom APIs, that you make adjustments or improvements to your Application’s security standards or processes as a condition to using or continuing to use the Zoom APIs. You will maintain processes to encourage reporting of, identify, and remediate any security vulnerabilities in your Application, and you will promptly notify Zoom in writing of, and explain to Zoom in reasonable detail, any security vulnerabilities related to your Application's connection to the Zoom APIs promptly upon becoming aware of such vulnerabilities. Zoom’s performance of a Security Review or decision not to respond to notice of a Security Incident or security vulnerability shall not be construed as an approval, warranty, or certification of your Application or security safeguards, nor shall it limit your liability for the breach of, or waive your compliance with, any provision of the Terms. You shall treat the occurrence of, results of, and any communications in connection with a Security Review as Confidential Information. For the avoidance of doubt, you shall not use such information in any marketing or advertising of your Application.
    5. Privacy Requirements. You shall:
      1. comply with Privacy Laws, including your obligations thereunder to notify governmental authorities and affected individuals of security breaches, and to comply with individuals’ requests to exercise their rights under Privacy Laws (e.g., to access, correct, delete, make portable, object to or restrict the processing of, or opt-out of sharing of their Personal Information); 
      2. ensure (and are solely responsible for ensuring) that all consents have been obtained from, and all notices (including privacy notices) have been given to, all End Users and others as may be required by Privacy Laws for the operation of your Application and your collection, use, sharing, retention or other processing of Application Data; 
      3. ensure any such notices and consents do not supersede, modify or conflict with the Terms or other applicable Zoom terms and policies;

      5. Not disclose Personal Information to any third party except:
        1. to an End User to whom it pertains;

        3. as expressly authorized by the End User to whom it pertains; or
        4. as required by laws or regulations; and
      6. upon request by Zoom to provide such assistance and take such actions as may be reasonably necessary for Zoom to comply with Privacy Laws.  
    6. Other Privacy Terms. Nothing in the Terms or the activities contemplated hereby shall be construed as creating a joint controller relationship between you and Zoom or designating you as a Zoom processor.
