Retention Period for Zoom Recordings

Per ITS policy, cloud recordings older than 120 days will be deleted for faculty and staff; recordings older than 30 days will be deleted for students. These recordings will be moved into the Zoom trash and permanently deleted after 30 days of being in the Zoom trash. After they have been permanently deleted, they cannot be retrieved. If you wish to keep any Zoom recordings, please download them to your local storage within the retention period. 

Starting a Recording

All Temple Zoom hosts can record to the cloud or locally to their computer. In a Zoom meeting, press Record to start the recording. Zoom meetings can be scheduled to automatically record. By default, local recordings are saved to your documents folder; cloud recordings can be found on the Recording page of your Zoom web portal.
