The agreement ends the investigation announced in late March by prosecutor Letitia James, according to the statement released Thursday.
The measures announced Thursday essentially join those already announced by the group in recent weeks.
With the coronavirus pandemic and the containment measures, the traffic of this American platform has exploded, largely due to its free access (for a limited time).
The number of meetings organized daily on Zoom thus rose from 10 million in January to more than 300 million at the end of April.
The group was then criticized for the inadequacies of its security system, which in particular allowed dozens of unwanted people to invite themselves to meetings, sometimes in the middle of children in full class at a distance.
It also appeared that Zoom communicated personal user data to Facebook.
It has since made a series of commitments in March and April to address these shortcomings.
The San Jose platform has put in place a series of educational tools to explain to users how to prevent an uninvited person from joining a meeting.
She also ended her partnership with Facebook.
In early April, the group announced that it had assigned all of its engineers to strengthening security and protecting private data on Zoom, for a period of 90 days.
He pledged to the prosecutor to conduct external audits to assess the progress of his security system, just as he had already done in early April.
