How to record transparently: notify participants and treat their data responsibly.
Recording a meeting with Voicit is easy, but it's best to do it transparently. Here are some best practices for recording meetings while notifying participants and handling their data responsibly.
Always notify the participants
Before you start recording, inform those present that the meeting will be recorded and why. This is a matter of transparency and, in most contexts, a legal requirement.
How to collect consent
You can get it before or during the meeting. Choose what best suits your process:
- At the calendar event (Recommended): Add the legal text to the event description (Google Calendar, Teams, Calendly, HubSpot, etc.). It will appear on the invitation that participants receive when they RSVP.
- In a contractIf one is already signed in your process, include the text as a clause.
- In a form (Google Forms, Tally…) with a checkbox for them to confirm their agreement.
- By voice at the beginningStart recording and ask for their consent. If someone does not give their consent, stop recording.
Ready-to-use consent texts

"Before we begin: I use a tool that records and transcribes the session so I can write the clinical notes without typing while we talk. It's under professional confidentiality, just like everything else we discuss here. The data is stored encrypted in Europe, and I make the clinical decisions, not the tool. It's entirely voluntary: if you prefer I don't record, we can proceed exactly as before. Is that alright with you?"
