If you are logged into Copilot with a Microsoft Account or other third-party authentication, you can control whether your conversations are used for training the generative AI models used in Copilot. Opting out will exclude your past, present, and future conversations from being used for training these AI models, unless you choose to opt back in. If you opt out, that change will be reflected throughout our systems within 30 days.
If you are not logged into Copilot with a Microsoft Account or other third-party authentication, we do not train Copilot on your conversations.
You can control whether your conversations are used for model training at any time in the following ways:
On copilot.microsoft.com: Select your profile icon, select your profile name, then select Privacy > Model training on text/voice.In Copilot for Windows: Select your profile icon, then select Settings > Privacy > Model training on text/voice.In the Copilot mobile app: Open the menu, select your profile icon, then select Account > Privacy > Model training on text/voice.This setting will not exclude your conversations from being used for other general product or system improvements nor from use for advertising, digital safety, security, and compliance purposes as outlined in the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
We may eventually expand model training and opt-out controls to users in certain countries where we do not currently use conversation history for model training. But we will do so gradually, to ensure we get this right for consumers and to ensure we comply with local privacy laws around the world.
