Implications of de-authorization

- Existing historical results already generated in your Truly workspace may remain available for compliance/audit needs.
Data handling after removal

- If you also want previously collected session data deleted, contact support at
support@truly.wsand include your workspace details.
Troubleshooting
- Load unpacked not shown: ensure Developer mode is enabled.
- Extension not visible in Meet: pin the extension from Chrome’s extension menu, then reopen Meet.
