Dear Coaches and Clients,

Recently, there have been privacy and security concerns about the use of Zoom video-conferencing technology. We have received a lot of information about this from our coaches and clients, for which we are grateful for. As such, we would like to share about (1) why we choose to use Zoom, (2) what Morphos is doing to protect your privacy, and (3) how you can protect yourself online.

(1) Why do we use Zoom?

Morphos International is on the constant lookout for technology that can allow us to overcome geographical barriers and serve our international coaches and clients. In assessment of the tools we use, we consider many factors, such as privacy and security, as well as practicality and ease of use. In terms of video-conferencing tools, we find that Zoom excels in these areas, and thus we have chosen to use it to connect people across different regions, including mainland China.

(2) What are we doing to protect you?

Confidentiality is a core value in Morphos International. As such, we take special care in ensuring confidentiality in the use of technology. As we use Zoom, we have put in place the following practices.

  • Every meeting will have a randomised meeting room ID, and all meeting room IDs are sent out privately
  • Every meeting will have its corresponding password, and only shared to participants
  • Every meeting will be managed by a host for the entirety of the session
  • Screen sharing function can only be used by appointed members
  • In order to protect the interests of everyone, only the host will be allowed to record the sessions

(3) How can you protect yourself online?

  • Ensure that you only click on links shared by Morphos International
  • Avoid clicking on links shared in chat rooms, ensure that the links are trusted before clicking on them
  • Take note of your on-screen presence, to avoid embarrassing moments
  • Ensure you remain muted when you are not speaking
  • Do not disclose the meeting room ID and password shared with you by Morphos International

Thank you for your cooperation, let us create a safe learning environment online.
