Zoom and Microsoft Teams are the leading video conferencing platforms, but their encryption and privacy practices have significant limitations. Understanding what is and is not protected is critical for confidential meetings.
E2EE on everything. Zero metadata. No phone number required.
| Feature | WeTalkin | Microsoft Teams |
|---|---|---|
| E2E Encrypted Calls | Zoom: Optional E2EE meetings | Optional — 1:1 calls only |
| Group E2EE | Zoom: Available but limits features | Not available for group calls |
| Recording Privacy | Zoom: Cloud recording on servers | Cloud recording on Microsoft servers |

Zoom offers optional E2EE for meetings but disables many features when enabled (cloud recording, breakout rooms, polling). Teams offers E2EE only for 1:1 calls. Group meetings on both platforms process through servers without E2EE, meaning the platforms can access meeting content.
Both Zoom and Teams now offer AI features that process meeting content — Zoom's AI Companion and Teams' Copilot. This requires platform access to your conversation data for transcription and summarization, raising privacy concerns for confidential discussions.
Both platforms store meeting recordings in their cloud infrastructure. These recordings are not E2EE and are accessible to admins and the platforms. For confidential meetings, cloud recording creates permanent, accessible records of sensitive discussions.
WeTalkin provides E2EE video calls by default for both one-on-one and group conversations. No features are disabled by encryption, no AI processes your call content, and no recordings are stored on servers. For confidential video meetings, WeTalkin provides genuine privacy.
50,000+ users already made the switch to zero-knowledge privacy.
Zoom offers optional E2EE but it disables many features and must be manually enabled. Standard Zoom meetings use transport encryption only — Zoom servers can access call content. For truly encrypted video calls, use WeTalkin.
Teams meetings use transport encryption but the platform processes meeting content server-side. E2EE is available only for 1:1 calls. Group meetings are not E2EE. Microsoft's Copilot AI features further process meeting content.
WeTalkin provides default E2EE on all video calls — one-on-one and group — without disabling any features. No AI processing, no cloud recordings, zero-knowledge architecture. It is the most private video calling platform available.
