Microsoft 365 Copilot
WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
Microsoft does not claim ownership of customer prompts or inputs. Customer data remains customer property under Microsoft's data governance framework.
OUTPUT
Microsoft doesn't claim ownership of the output of the service. Outputs are treated as customer data.
TRAINING
Microsoft does not use M365 Copilot customer content to train foundation models. The Microsoft Privacy Statement (March 2026) states for enterprise Copilot: 'Microsoft 365 Copilot...provides enterprise-grade data protection' and 'will use the content in your files only when you ask it to perform a specific action on that specific content.' General Microsoft AI statement covers manual review of automated method outputs for improving accuracy, but enterprise Copilot data is explicitly protected.
COMMERCIAL
Microsoft 365 Copilot is available as an enterprise add-on. Commercial use of all outputs is permitted.

Tavus grants itself a license to use Customer Content (including Seed Files — facial/voice data used to create digital avatars) and Media Files 'to provide you with the functionality of, and to maintain and improve, Tavus' products and services, including the Tavus Platform.' This is a broad improvement license that explicitly covers AI output files. Tavus may also collect and use 'aggregated and/or de-identified usage data' to improve the platform. No separate explicit no-training commitment was identified.
COMMERCIAL
Commercial integration is permitted; users may build applications using Tavus APIs and make them available to end users in accordance with the documentation.
