However, we were recently made aware that the Facebook SDK was collecting unnecessary device data,' the statement read, and described the data being collected as the same sorts of information that Motherboard identified. We originally implemented the ‘Login with Facebook’ feature using the Facebook SDK in order to provide our users with another convenient way to access our platform.

Will Strafach, an iOS researcher and founder of privacy-focused iOS app Guardian confirmed Motherboard's findings that the Zoom app sent data to Facebook.
