Version: 1.0

Effective date: 27 May 2026

1. Purpose

This Privacy Policy explains how World-Meeting collects, uses, stores, protects and shares personal data processed in connection with the World-Meeting website, web application and services, accessible in particular from the domain world-meeting.app and any subdomains, hereinafter the "Site" or the "Service".

World-Meeting enables users to create, join and manage WebRTC audio/video meeting rooms with, depending on the settings selected, automated real-time translation, subtitles, translated voice, room messages, screen sharing, waiting room, organizer-based admission, speaking control and technical evidence related to payment, refunds, incidents or disputes.

This Privacy Policy is intended to cover, in a single document, privacy information, cookies and local storage, AI and translation-related processing, and the main categories of technical providers and subprocessors used by World-Meeting.

This Privacy Policy must be read together with the Terms of Use, the Terms of Sale, the Refund and Cancellation Policy, the Legal Notice and, where applicable for business customers, the Data Processing Addendum or "DPA".

2. Data Controller

The data controller is the operator of World-Meeting, hereinafter "World-Meeting", the "Publisher", "we", "us" or "our".

Controller identification:

  • Legal name: M LOUE XAVIER
  • Legal form: Entrepreneur individuel (EI)
  • Share capital: not applicable to an individual entrepreneur
  • Registered office: 3 Impasse Denis Papin, 44310 Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu, France
  • Company registration number: SIREN 891 108 615
  • VAT number: FR37891108615
  • Privacy contact email: [email protected]
  • General contact email: [email protected]
  • Data Protection Officer: not appointed

Where World-Meeting processes data for its own purposes, including management of the Site, security, payment, billing, evidence, support, fraud prevention, Service improvement, dispute management and compliance with legal obligations, World-Meeting acts as data controller.

Where World-Meeting processes data relating to participants, employees, clients, students, partners, guests or other persons invited by a business Client solely to provide the ordered room according to the Client's instructions, World-Meeting may act as processor within the meaning of the GDPR. In that case, the Data Processing Addendum or DPA supplements this Privacy Policy.

3. Persons Concerned

This Privacy Policy may concern in particular:

  • visitors of the Site;
  • persons using the contact page;
  • organizers;
  • paying clients;
  • participants invited to a room;
  • users requesting admission to a room;
  • persons contacting support;
  • persons involved in a dispute, refund, report or payment dispute;
  • authorized internal administrators;
  • representatives, employees, contractors or agents of a business Client.

4. Data Collected

World-Meeting collects only the data necessary for the purposes described below, depending on the features used.

4.1 Site Visit Data

When a user visits the Site, we may process:

  • IP address or minimized, truncated, hashed or masked version;
  • connection date and time;
  • pages viewed;
  • referrer or navigation source;
  • browser, operating system, device type, language, time zone and technical settings;
  • security events, errors, server logs and anti-abuse measures;
  • cookie or tracker choices;
  • data necessary for SSR rendering, caching, security, load balancing and protection of the Site.

4.2 Contact and Support Data

When a user contacts World-Meeting or reports a problem, we may process:

  • name or visible name;
  • email address;
  • organization or company, if provided;
  • subject of the request;
  • content of the message;
  • files or screenshots voluntarily provided;
  • date and time of the request;
  • room or order concerned, if indicated;
  • technical data useful for diagnosis;
  • security and abuse-limitation data, including hashed or minimized IP evidence where configured.

4.3 Room Creation Data

When a room is created, we may process:

  • unique technical room identifier;
  • room mode, including conversation room or team room;
  • selected duration;
  • selected capacity;
  • languages available in the room;
  • room status;
  • commercial status of the room;
  • creation, opening, start, expiry, cancellation, refund or end dates;
  • locked settings;
  • pricing data and price version;
  • technical invitation links;
  • organizer code or organizer secret in protected, hashed or encrypted form where configured;
  • events related to organizer controls.

4.4 Organizer Data

To identify and authorize the organizer in a room, we may process:

  • technical participant identity;
  • visible name;
  • proof of possession of the organizer code;
  • token or secret in hashed form;
  • room access token stored server-side in hashed form;
  • organizer actions, such as opening, locking, unlocking, approval, rejection, removal, ending the room, managing speaking rights, resetting the speaking queue, reporting or support actions;
  • timestamps of such actions.

4.5 Pre-entry, Admission and Waiting Room Data

When a participant attempts to join a room, we may process:

  • room identifier;
  • selected visible name;
  • spoken language preference;
  • translation language preference;
  • admission request status, such as pending, approved, denied or equivalent;
  • timestamps for request, approval, rejection, entry, exit or expiry;

  • request or access token in hashed form;
  • presence state and heartbeat;
  • media permission or local readiness information necessary for the user experience;
  • events indicating that a participant is waiting, accepted, rejected, has left, has expired or has been removed.

The invitation link does not provide automatic access to the room. Non-organizer participants may remain in the waiting room until approved by the organizer.

4.6 Audio, Video and Screen Sharing Data

The Service enables real-time audio/video communication.

Depending on the configuration, audio, video or screen sharing streams may transit through WebRTC infrastructure, including LiveKit or a compatible service. World-Meeting is not intended to permanently record raw audio, raw video or raw screen sharing content.

In its current architecture, the World-Meeting backend does not necessarily receive raw audio/video streams. However, technical providers necessary for media transmission may process streams in real time in order to provide the room.

The user remains responsible for what they activate, say, show or share.

4.7 Translation, Subtitle and Translated Voice Data

When translation features are used, we may process:

  • source language;
  • target language;
  • technical identity of the speaker;
  • translation preference of the listener;
  • subtitle or translated voice request;
  • translation session events;
  • translation lease metadata;
  • timestamps for creation, renewal, heartbeat, expiry or session error;
  • partial or finalized subtitles where they must be displayed in the room;
  • finalized translated transcripts or recaps necessary for the active room experience;
  • technical metrics, latency, provider errors and minimized evidence of operation or failure.

Translation is automated. It may involve the temporary transmission of audio, text or metadata to an automated translation provider, including OpenAI, in order to provide the requested result.

World-Meeting does not treat translations as certified translations, official interpretations or evidentiary records.

4.8 Room Messages

If the user uses room messages, we may process:

  • visible name of the author;
  • technical identity of the author;
  • text of the message;
  • date and time;
  • room identifier;
  • synchronization or delivery events.

Room messages are separate from subtitles and audio translation. Unless a specific feature states otherwise, manually entered messages are not necessarily translated.

In a team room, we may process:

  • technical identity of the current speaker;
  • requests to speak;
  • speaking queue;
  • request cancellation;
  • passing speaking rights;
  • organizer intervention;
  • microphone state according to role;
  • related timestamps and events.

These data are necessary for the structured operation of the team room.

4.11 Transactional Email Data

When a transactional email is sent, for example after payment to provide the start link, invitation link, organizer code, duration and start window, we may process:

  • email address provided at Checkout;
  • transactional content;
  • sending date;
  • delivery status;
  • technical email identifiers;
  • possible delivery, bounce or error events depending on the configured provider.

Email links must not contain raw secrets where the Service uses a separate organizer code.

4.12 Evidence, Dispute, Stripe Dispute and Security Data

In the event of a dispute, refund, chargeback, Stripe dispute, report, incident or suspected fraud, we may process:

  • order and room identifiers;
  • versions of the Terms of Use, Terms of Sale, Privacy Policy and accepted checkout texts;
  • proof of acceptance of terms;
  • proof of Stripe Checkout consent;
  • timestamps for payment, opening, admission, participation, expiry or incident;
  • room status and commercial status;
  • sold settings;
  • evidence of Service availability;
  • minimized access data, such as masked IP, HMAC hash, country or technical information where available;
  • encrypted raw IP where this mechanism is configured for restricted evidence in cases of fraud or dispute;

Where data are optional, the user may choose not to provide them, but certain features may then be unavailable or degraded.

7. Cookies, Local Storage and Similar Technologies

World-Meeting may use cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, technical identifiers, logs and similar technologies, together referred to as "Trackers".

7.1 Strictly Necessary Trackers

World-Meeting may use strictly necessary Trackers to operate the Site and the Service, including to:

  • provide navigation;
  • protect the Site;
  • remember privacy choices;
  • manage an admin or user session where applicable;
  • temporarily store a recovery token after returning from Stripe;
  • locally store a room access token during a session;
  • locally store an organizer code or room information received by the user;

  • limit abuse;
  • enable load balancing;
  • enable payment through Stripe Checkout;
  • diagnose technical errors.

These Trackers are necessary to provide the Service requested by the user or to enable electronic communication. They do not require prior consent where applicable law allows it.

7.2 Examples of Technical Trackers

Depending on the configuration, World-Meeting may use in particular:

  • local storage of the organizer code or a room pointer so the organizer can recover controls;
  • session storage of the room access token to access protected room APIs during the session;
  • temporary checkout recovery storage to recover the paid room after returning from Stripe;
  • language preference storage;
  • media device preference storage in the browser where possible;
  • cookie or storage for cookie choices;
  • technical security cookies or tokens;
  • server security and diagnostic logs;
  • HTTP-only admin cookie if an authorized administrator uses the admin area.

The exact names of Trackers may change depending on Service versions.

7.3 Stripe Payment Trackers

When a user pays for a room through Stripe Checkout, the user is redirected to a Stripe payment interface or uses Stripe elements.

Stripe may use its own cookies, trackers, security mechanisms, fraud prevention tools, authentication, payment, Link, 3D Secure, risk analysis or compliance technologies.

These trackers are subject to Stripe's policies. World-Meeting does not control all trackers placed on Stripe domains or interfaces.

Payment must not be circumvented. Card data are processed by Stripe and not by World-Meeting.

7.4 Media, WebRTC and Translation Trackers

The Service may use technologies necessary for real-time communication, including WebRTC, LiveKit or a compatible service.

These technologies may process technical information necessary for audio/video connection, such as connection state, network quality, device, browser, WebRTC statistics, latency, errors or session identifiers.

When automated translation is used, technical information may be processed to create or maintain a translation session.

These processing operations are necessary for the features requested by the user.

7.5 Analytics and Non-essential Trackers

World-Meeting may use technical measurements to understand reliability, errors, media quality, checkout success, creation flows, rooms, translation capabilities and incidents.

Where these measurements are strictly necessary for the operation, security or provision of the Service, they may be used without consent within the limits allowed by law.

Where World-Meeting uses non-exempt audience measurement trackers, advertising trackers, marketing pixels, social network trackers or cross-site measurement, these trackers will be activated only after prior consent where required by law.

World-Meeting does not place advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, social media trackers or similar non-essential trackers without prior consent where required.

7.6 Consent Management

Where consent is required, the user must be able to:

  • receive clear information about the purposes;
  • accept Trackers;
  • reject non-essential Trackers;
  • choose by purpose where relevant;
  • withdraw consent at any time;
  • easily access their preferences.

Acceptance of the Terms of Use or Terms of Sale does not constitute consent to non-essential cookies.

Continuing to browse or remaining silent must not be interpreted as consent to Trackers subject to consent.

7.7 Browser Settings

The user may configure their browser to block, delete or limit certain cookies and local storage.

However, blocking strictly necessary Trackers may prevent the normal operation of the Service, including room creation or recovery, return after Stripe payment, organizer code storage, waiting room admission, access to protected APIs, language preferences, security, audio/video connection or translation.

8. AI, Automated Translation and Transparency

World-Meeting may offer automated translation, subtitles, translated voice and translation recap features.

These features may use artificial intelligence or automated translation technologies. They process the data necessary to provide the requested translation, including audio, source language, target language, transcript text or technical metadata.

World-Meeting does not use these features to make automated decisions producing legal effects concerning users or similarly significantly affecting them within the meaning of the GDPR.

Translations, subtitles and translated voice may contain errors, omissions, delays, mistranslations, approximations or quality variations. They must not be treated as certified translations, official interpretations, professional advice or the sole basis for a critical decision.

Users and Clients must not rely exclusively on World-Meeting translations for medical, legal, financial, security, emergency, immigration, regulatory compliance, critical contractual negotiation or other high-stakes decisions.

The organizer and the Client are responsible for informing participants where a room uses automated translation, subtitles, translated voice or translation recap features and for obtaining any consent or legal basis required under applicable law.

Where World-Meeting acts as processor for a business Client, World-Meeting may forward the request to the Client or request instructions, unless a direct legal obligation provides otherwise.

Certain rights may be limited where retention is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, establish or defend legal claims, prevent fraud, handle a dispute, protect the security of the Service or respect the rights of other persons.

15. Privacy Rights Outside the EU

Depending on the country or state of residence, including certain U.S. states or countries in Asia, persons may have additional rights, such as the right to know the categories of data collected, right to deletion, right to correction, right to opt out of certain sales or sharing of data, right to limit the use of sensitive data, right not to be discriminated against for exercising a right, or right to appeal.

World-Meeting does not sell personal data in the ordinary meaning of the term. If a local regulation broadly defines "sale" or "sharing", World-Meeting will handle applicable requests under the relevant law.

Persons concerned may contact World-Meeting to exercise their local rights. World-Meeting will respond to the extent required by applicable regulation.

16. Minors

World-Meeting is intended for professional or organizational use and is not intended for children.

Minors may use the Service only under the responsibility of a legal representative, institution, employer, educational supervisor or authorized organization, where permitted by applicable law.

If World-Meeting learns that a minor has provided data without appropriate authorization, World-Meeting may delete or restrict the relevant data where possible and appropriate.
