PremiumEND USERIT PRO3 min readWhy can I trust Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Your data stays your data: Copilot honors existing permissions, never trains models on your content and shares nothing across tenants. The green “Enterprise Data Protection” shield confirms it visually.
✅ How to
- 1The same guarantees as Microsoft 365Microsoft 365 Copilot was built to meet the same security, compliance and privacy requirements as Microsoft 365. Your prompts, the generated responses and your organization's data are not used to train Microsoft's or OpenAI's foundation AI models.
- 2Your data stays in your tenantData stays within your Microsoft 365 tenant boundary. Copilot enforces existing permissions: it can only access content the user already has access to, no more, no less.
- 3The green “Enterprise Data Protection” shieldA visual cue tells you that you're using an experience covered by enterprise protections: the “Enterprise Data Protection” icon, shown as a green shield in Copilot Chat. When it's present, Microsoft guarantees that data is protected under its security commitments, isn't used to train models and benefits from enterprise compliance controls.
- 4Verify the commitments at the sourceTo verify these commitments officially, Microsoft publishes all its reference documentation on Microsoft Learn and the Microsoft Trust Center: ➞ https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoft-365-copilot/microsoft-365-copilot-privacy ➞ https://www.microsoft.com/trust-center
Key takeaway: your data stays your data. Microsoft 365 Copilot honors existing permissions, doesn't share your information with other customers and doesn't use your work content to train AI models.

You know the document exists, but you just can't find it.

Filters, sources, recent or shared content, and even a prompt launched straight from a file: here's how to make the most of it.
PremiumThe Library and Pages: keep a memory of your work with Copilot
At the end of a prompt, Copilot can turn its answer into a « Page »: a living document you edit, enrich, export to Word or PDF, share, and even reload into a conversation to pick up where you left off. All your Pages (and generated images) live in one place: the Library.
