Zoom also is being sued in California for allegedly giving users' personal data to outside companies including Facebook without fully informing customers that's the case.
Zoom's software reported to Facebook whenever a Zoom user logged on for a conference call, a lawsuit filed Monday stated.
"This information is sent to Facebook by Zoom regardless of whether the user has an account with Facebook.".
Zoom officials acknowledged its data sharing in blog posts and said they have changed the practice.
CEO Eric Yuan said company officials "were made aware" of Facebook data sharing last week, after a news report from Vice Media detailed the practice.
Yuan said the sharing began after Zoom gave users the option of logging on via a Facebook Software Development Kit, or SDK.
The lawsuit also states Zoom was paid for sharing user data, although court documents don't disclose how much money Zoom allegedly received. »
