Users can create a new Zoom account using the same email address. An account owner or an account admin can transfer meetings, webinars and cloud recordings to another Zoom user account before deleting.\n\n**Disassociating** a user unlinks the user from the associated Zoom account and provides the user their own basic free Zoom account.
