Update: Heise points out that Zoom is giving data to Facebook without notice: https://www.heise.de/mac-and-i/meldung/Bericht-Zoom-App-fuer-iOS-reicht-Daten-heimlich-an-Facebook-weiter-4691613.html (in German). Gore a more detailed analysis see this English post: https://protonmail.com/blog/zoom-privacy-issues/
For videoconferences without the "original sound" feature of Zoom, I recommend: Jitsi for use with Chrome browser or Jitsi app. Conference servers are available here: https://meet.jit.si or https://meet.ffmuc.net
Update 2: Zoom reacted immediately and removed the data sharing feature from the iOS app with an update, see the announcement here.
