What it is

Microsoft can use your voice recordings and conversations with AI tools like Copilot to train and improve its AI systems, and human reviewers may listen to or read those interactions.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Your voice commands and AI chat interactions on Xbox and other Microsoft services may be reviewed by Microsoft employees and used to train AI models, creating ongoing data exposure beyond the immediate interaction.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Sign in to your Microsoft account at account.microsoft.com/privacy, navigate to 'Privacy dashboard', and select 'Voice data' or 'AI interaction history' to review and delete stored voice and AI interaction data.
