It says, "Lessons may be recorded." What does that mean?

Forte's recording policy:

A commitment to customer and child safety is one of the founding principles of Forte.

In the interest of safety, especially for students who are minors, Forte must retain the ability to record lessons. In some cases and some states, this is a legal requirement. You can rest assured that any videos we capture are stored on servers with best-in-class security.

We never share videos outside of Forte without first getting permission from the teacher and/or the student/parent, unless required by law.

You can read our full Terms of Use here and our full Privacy Policy here for more information.

Using Forte’s recording feature, both teachers and students can choose to record all or parts of the lesson. To start recording, click on the Recording icon.

Both the student and the teacher will receive a notification when recording has been turned on and again when recording has been turned off. You can enable and disable recording as many times as you wish during your session.

At the end of the lesson, both the student and the teacher will receive an email with a link to download your recording. It takes our server approximately 15-60 minutes to process your recordings, depending on the size and length.
