Who Can See, Share, and Process My Personal Data When I Join Meetings and Use Other UglyConnect Products and Services?

When you send messages or join meetings and webinars on UglyConnect, other people and organizations, including third parties outside the meeting, webinar, or message, may be able to see content and information that you share:

* Account Owner: An account owner is the organization or individual that signs up for a UglyConnect account. Typically, an account owner designates one or more people (called an “administrator”) to manage their account and can grant privileges to users on the account. Depending on their license with UglyConnect, the account owner can authorize additional users on their account, and the account owner can create and/or access the profile information for all users on their account. The account owner and their users can invite others (including guests not on their account and unlicensed participants) to meetings or webinars hosted on their account.

UglyConnect gives account owners controls and features that they can use to determine whether certain types of content, such as recordings or out-of-meeting messages, can be created or sent, and what third-party apps can be used, for meetings and webinars hosted on their account. Depending on their settings, account owners and the users they designate can access personal data for participants who join meetings and webinars on their account or send messages to users on their account. Specifically, account owners may have access to:

*Account Usage: 

*Product Usage:  Information about how users and their devices interact with their account, which may include who sent messages to their users in chat, email addresses, IP addresses, device information, and other information about who joined meetings or webinars on their account, whether their users viewed or downloaded a recording, how long participants participated in their meetings, the time a message was sent, information about UglyConnect Phone integrations, and other usage information and feedback metrics.

*Participant List: Information about the participants in a UglyConnect meeting, webinar, or chat, which may include name, display name, email address, phone number, and participant or user ID.

*Registration Information: Information provided during registration for a webinar, meeting, UglyConnect Room, or recording hosted by the account.

*UglyConnect Team Chat Out-of-Meeting Messages:  If enabled on their account, account owners and those they authorize can see information about who sent and received out-of-meeting messages to users on their account along with information about the message (for example, date and time, and number of participants). Depending on their settings, account owners also can see sender and receiver information, and other messaging data, along with the content of messages sent to and from users on their account, unless the account owner has enabled Advanced Chat Encryption. Depending on their settings, account owners and those they authorize may also see the content shared through collaborative features, including whiteboards, files, and images shared in out-of-meeting chat.

*In-Meeting/Webinar Messages:  Depending on their settings, account owners can see sender and receiver information, along with the content of messages sent to and from users on their account, in the following circumstances: 

*Messages sent to Everyone in a meeting that is recorded

*Messages sent to panelists in a webinar that is recorded

*Direct messages if the account owner has enabled archiving

*If a participant in a meeting is subject to archiving, their account owner will have access to messages sent to Everyone in the meeting, as well as direct messages sent to that participant.

*Recordings: Account owners can watch the content of recordings of meetings and webinars hosted on their account. They can also view, share, and enable advanced features for transcripts of meeting audio.

*Polling, Q&A, and Feedback: Account owners can see information about who provided responses to their polls, Q&A, or post meeting or webinar feedback requests, including name and contact information, together with the responses or feedback, unless responses are submitted anonymously.

* Meeting Hosts, Participants, and Invitees: Hosts, participants, and invitees may be able to see your email, display name, and profile picture. Meeting hosts, participants, and invitees can also see and (depending on the account owner's settings) record or save meeting content, audio transcripts, messages sent to Everyone or to them directly, and files, whiteboards or other information shared during a meeting. Hosts may also be able to see responses to Q&A and polls generated during the meeting.

* Webinar Panelists and Attendees: Only panelists may be visible to attendees during a webinar, but attendees who agree to unmute can be heard by other attendees. If an attendee agrees to become a panelist during a webinar, they may be visible to other attendees, depending on settings. Panelists and attendees may be able to see the name of a participant who asks a question during a Q&A, along with their question, unless the participant submits the question anonymously.

* Livestreams: Meeting and webinar hosts can choose to livestream to a third-party site or service, which means anyone with access to the livestream will be able to see the meeting or webinar.

* Apps and Integrations:   

*Account owners can choose to add UglyConnect-developed apps and third-party apps to their account and the UglyConnect Products they use, including via use of the UglyConnect App Marketplace, and they can also control whether their users can add and use specific UglyConnect and third-party apps, including in meetings, webinars, and chats hosted on their account.

*Account owners can also choose to integrate other content – such as email communications on their corporate account – to apps and services that they use, such as UglyConnect IQ (a UglyConnect-developed application that provides insights and business analytics related to businesses when they use UglyConnect Products). Further, account owners may choose to have UglyConnect analyze the meeting's audio recording to distinguish one speaker from another to create an accurate transcript. The audio analysis is not retained after the transcript is generated.

*Depending on their settings, account owners', users' and guests' personal data and content may be shared with apps and integrations approved by account owners, which may include all the personal data categories listed above, such as account information, profile and contact information, registration information, participants list, settings, content, product usage, device information, or emails that have been shared with the app.

*Other participants in the meeting may be able to see the app that you are using in a meeting, if the app is receiving content (including audio and video) from the meeting.

*Third-party developers may also integrate or embed UglyConnect meetings into their website or app experiences or build versions of UglyConnect that enable access to UglyConnect Products from a third-party app.

*Personal information shared by account owners and users with third-party apps and integrations is collected and processed in accordance with the app developers' terms and privacy policies, not UglyConnect's.
