Due to concerns raised by the European Union’s Privacy Regulators regarding potential violations of the Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, Microsoft has reviewed and changed their Online Service Terms and Conditions for Commercial users. These changes come as a result of collaborative work with the Dutch Ministry of Justice, who first raised the concerns that Microsoft was collecting data that violated the General Data Protection Regulation. In a statement regarding these changes, Microsoft’s Chief Privacy Officer stated how this is a big “positive step forward” in regards to compliance and collaboration with bodies of the European Union to safeguard their users.
