[How this will affect your organization:]
If your tenant turns on the policy get recording and transcription consent, meetings organized by users within the tenant will require participants’ agreement to be transcribed when transcription is started. Participants can agree or disagree to be transcribed. If participants do not consent, they cannot unmute, turn on their camera, or share content during the meeting.
