Question on 1.2.4 and "publicly broadcast"

Hello everyone,

I have received a question on 1.2.4 regarding if it is or id it isn't
applicable to content that is not "publicly broadcast" e.g. video
chat.

The understanding doc for 1.2.4 states [1], "This success criterion
was intended to apply to broadcast of synchronized media and is not
intended to require that two-way multimedia calls between two or more
individuals through web apps must be captioned regardless of the needs
of users."

If a person needs captioning in a private video chat does 1.2.4 apply?

Thank you.

Kindest Regards,
Laura
