GitHub's Copilot FAQ states: GitHub may use interactions from users with a Copilot Free, Copilot Pro or Copilot Pro+ subscription, including inputs, outputs, code snippets and associated context, to train and improve its AI models unless they have opted out.
For business customers, GitHub's policy management documentation states: GitHub does not use Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise customer data to train AI models.
Copilot's agent mode operates across a connected repository rather than a single open file, so the tier a given seat is on matters more once agent mode is in use.
The opt-out for individual subscribers is a setting inside the Copilot features page of the user's GitHub account.
For individual Copilot Free, Pro and Pro+ subscribers, GitHub's own FAQ states that interactions, including inputs, outputs and code snippets, may be used to train and improve its AI models unless the subscriber opts out.
Yes. GitHub's FAQ states that individual subscribers can opt out of having their data used for AI model training at any time through their Copilot settings, without affecting access to Copilot features.
Yes. GitHub's Copilot policy management documentation states that GitHub does not use Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise customer data to train AI models.
