GitHub updated its Copilot Business Privacy Statement on June 24, 2026 by reorganizing and expanding the FAQ section. The document previously listed certification resources and began a FAQ section with limited questions visible. The updated version removes some certification file links and restructures the FAQ to explicitly surface questions about third-party testing, personal data processing, and AI model training, along with detailed descriptions of data categories processed (suggestions, feedback data, prompts, and user engagement data). This reorganization makes privacy-relevant questions and data processing information more directly accessible within the statement.

What this means for you

The updated privacy statement makes information about Copilot data processing more transparent by organizing key questions in the FAQ section. The statement now explicitly discloses what personal data is processed (suggestions, feedback data, prompts, and user engagement data), addresses third-party testing and certifications, and directly states whether business and enterprise data is used to train AI models. Users can review these disclosures in the reorganized FAQ without searching through longer policy text.
