What changed?

The September 9 announcement describes protections covering student and educator data, human oversight and transparency. Microsoft says the terms prevent covered data from being used to train AI models, sold or repurposed, while leaving schools in control of retention and deletion.

What should you keep in mind?

The partners describe the protections as contractually enforceable when incorporated into customer agreements. This is an announced contractual framework, rather than a new nationwide law or evidence that every school district has adopted it.
