What Copilot does in communication & media

Core tasks in communication & media
Where Copilot is strong
  • Deep Microsoft 365 integration
  • Grounding on your own data via Microsoft Graph
  • Strong enterprise governance and compliance
  • Choice between GPT and Claude models

Copilot has a specific GDPR point of attention. The Claude models within Copilot officially fall outside the EU Data Boundary. If you want strictly EU-only processing, exclude the Claude models in the admin panel. Weigh this heavily before deploying it in communication & media.

Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Caution

Copyright and source protection weigh heavily: check whether AI output can be used without rights issues, and never enter informants' source material into a consumer chatbot.

Microsoft 365 Copilot (business) falls under the EU Data Boundary and does not train on tenant data. Consumer Copilot does train by default, with an opt-out.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
