At Microsoft, our aim is to empower our users by advancing digital safety and addressing illegal and harmful content and conduct, while respecting rights like privacy, freedom of expression and access to information. Digital safety is a whole-of-society responsibility, so we work with industry partners, civil society, and other stakeholders to address complex online harms.

We take a multi-pronged approach to fostering digital safety. We set rules and policies for the use of Microsoft products and services and then remove user content or take action against user conduct that breaks our policies. We also need you to tell us if you have concerns about something you saw or experienced on a Microsoft service.

• Microsoft has aService Agreement that includes aCode of Conduct. This Code of Conduct tells you what you can and can’t do when using a Microsoft service.
• Your Microsoft account is what you create to access Microsoft services like Xbox and Teams.
• Ourguidelines give more details about rules and howwe follow them.
• Different Microsoft services may haveadditional policies and community standards.

Empowering our users includes helping people understand the risks they may face online and ways in which they can protect themselves and their families.
