Hi EN-NCC,
the provided excerpt outlines how Microsoft Copilot handles data during web search queries.
When generating a query, Copilot uses terms from the user's prompt but ensures the abstraction of any personally identifiable information, such as user ID or tenant ID.
The term "confidential data" refers to sensitive information that users may include in their prompts.
When Microsoft Copilot does a web search for you, it uses words from your request but doesn't include any personal info like your ID. However, if you share sensitive stuff in your request, that might be in the search. But, Copilot is built to keep things private and secure.
