Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Caution

Tenant and owner files contain personal data (GDPR). Only use systems with a data processing agreement and EU hosting; do not store audio recordings of meetings unencrypted on external servers. AI-supported decisions on rent arrears or allocation priorities fall under the EU AI Act (high-risk category where access to housing is affected) and require human oversight. Always have a staff member confirm critical decisions.

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.
