Privacy and security. We work to build AI systems that protect people's private information and are resistant to attacks.
This commitment, if not operationalised in actual product design, could be characterised as a deceptive practice by regulators, and does not specify what data Microsoft collects through its AI systems or how it is used.
This document describes Microsoft's internal ethical framework for AI development but does not grant consumers any enforceable rights, data deletion options, or complaint procedures in relation to AI-driven decisions that may affect them. Consumers who use Microsoft AI products like Copilot or Azure OpenAI Service are subject to separate terms of service and privacy policies that govern actual data handling, and this page does not modify or supplement those agreements. You can review Microsoft's Privacy Statement at microsoft.com/en-us/privacy and submit data rights requests through Microsoft's Privacy Dashboard if you are concerned about how your personal data is used by Microsoft AI systems.
