+No. Customer data submitted for translation to Azure AI Translator isn't stored permanently and not data is stored at rest. There's no record of the submitted text or document in any Microsoft data center. All organizational data remains within your organization's Azure subscription, ensuring that no data is shared with Microsoft. You maintain full control over your data, which remains your exclusive business. Microsoft further strengthens this control by adhering to extensive privacy laws, such as GDPR, and privacy standards, including the ISO/IEC 27018—the world's first international code of practice for cloud privacy. For more information, *see* [Azure AI Translator data, privacy, and security](/legal/cognitive-services/translator/data-privacy-security) and [Microsoft Translator Confidentiality](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/translator/business/notrace/#compliance).
