Is it legal to record Zoom meetings with Audiee in California, the UK or Australia?
Recording is legal in all three places when you follow the local consent rule, and because Audiee does not announce itself, following that rule is your job. California is an all-party-consent state: everyone on a confidential call must agree, so say "I'm recording this for notes, is that okay?" and wait for a yes. In the UK, recording a call you take part in for your own use is permitted; if you record for business purposes you fall under UK GDPR and should tell participants and have a lawful basis. In Australia the rules are set by each state: New South Wales generally requires the consent of everyone in a private conversation, Victoria allows a participant to record but restricts sharing, and Queensland allows a participant to record. Many US states are one-party, but a call with anyone in an all-party state should be treated as all-party. The safe habit everywhere is a one-line notice at the start and a written recap afterwards, which Audiee makes easy to share. This is general information, not legal advice.
