Who can access your data
Microsoft business cloud services take strong measures to help protect your customer data from inappropriate access or use by unauthorized persons. This includes restricting access by Microsoft personnel and subcontractors, and carefully defining requirements for responding to government requests for customer data. However, you can access your own customer data at any time and for any reason.
Access your customer data anytime
You can access your data anytime during your Microsoft subscription. Azure, Dynamics 365, Intune, and Office 365 subscribers can retrieve data without notification. Keep your data if you end your subscription.
Limited access to customer data
We take strong measures to help protect customer data from inappropriate access or use by unauthorized persons, either external or internal, and to prevent customers from gaining access to one another’s data.
Government requests for customer data
Microsoft ensures there are no “back doors” and no direct or unfettered government access to your data. We impose special requirements for government and law enforcement requests for customer data.
