How to observe privacy settings of calendar integration
The web portal in Zoom allows you to assign permissions to other users, so they can either follow your private meetings in Outlook or Google Calendar or they can simply select the ability to manage their events in Zoom. The user cannot see the meeting topic, invitation link, or attendee list of a private event if they are unable to manage private events.
A corporate executive may grant an assistant scheduling permissions under certain circumstances, but unless they trust the assistant to manage private events, the assistant will be able to see the executive’s private event on their calendar during a certain time, but they will not be able to access any other details about the event, such as the link to the meeting invitation, meeting topic or attending committee lists.
