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.
Microsoft does not claim data ownership over the customer information that’s entered into Azure. Microsoft gets access to your data : it is mandatory with any non-commercial installation of SQL Server that all your usage data covering performance, errors, feature use, IP addresses, device identifiers and more, is sent to Microsoft.
This of course begs the inquiry “Does Microsoft give the government access to your data?”
Microsoft does not provide any government with direct and unfettered access to our customers’ data, and we do not provide any government with our encryption keys or the ability to break our encryption. If a government wants customer data, it must follow applicable legal process.
How does Microsoft Access protect customer data?
Access to customer data is also strictly logged, and both Microsoft and third parties perform regular audits (as well as sample audits) to attest that any access is appropriate. In addition, Microsoft uses encryption to safeguard customer data and help you maintain control over it.
Can I access my own customer data at any time?
However, you can access your own customer data at any time and for any reason. You can access your data anytime during your Microsoft subscription. Azure, Dynamics 365, Intune, and Office 365 subscribers can retrieve data without notification.
How do I Connect Microsoft Access to Azure Data Factory?
Browse to the Manage tab in your Azure Data Factory or Synapse workspace and select Linked Services, then click New: Search for Access and select the Microsoft Access connector. Configure the service details, test the connection, and create the new linked service.
What happens to your data when you leave Azure?
Data destruction: When customers delete data or leave Azure, Microsoft follows strict standards for overwriting storage resources before their reuse, as well as the physical destruction of decommissioned hardware. Microsoft executes a complete deletion of data on customer request and on contract termination.
Where is my Azure data stored and processed?
Most Azure services enable you to specify the region where your customer data will be stored and processed. Microsoft may replicate to other regions for data resiliency, but Microsoft will not store or process customer data outside the selected Geo.
Azure relies on Microsoft corporate Active Directory, managed by Microsoft Information Technology (MSIT), to control access to key information systems. Multi-factor authentication is required, and access is granted only from secure consoles.
