Recommended Actions
- PRIORITY 1 — AI Training Commitment: Request and review the Microsoft Copilot Data Processing Addendum (DPA). Ask the Microsoft account team or privacy contact to confirm in writing whether customer data is used to train or improve AI models, and what the data retention period is for AI-processed inputs. Many enterprise customers can access this via the Microsoft Volume Licensing portal or the Microsoft Trust Center at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/trust-center.
- PRIORITY 2 — Subprocessor Disclosure: Request the current, Copilot-specific subprocessor list from Microsoft. Start by reviewing https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/copilot/microsoft-365/microsoft-365-copilot-privacy and escalating to your Microsoft account manager if the Copilot subprocessor page remains unpopulated. Document this in your GDPR vendor inventory.
- PRIORITY 3 — SOC 2 Type II Report: Request Microsoft Copilot's current SOC 2 Type II report and bridge letter directly from your Microsoft account team or via the Microsoft Service Trust Portal at https://servicetrust.microsoft.com. Many Microsoft reports are available for download with a Microsoft account login.

ThirdProof investigates Microsoft Copilot across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
