    Compliance Considerations

    QuestionAnswer
    Does the change alter how existing customer data is processed, stored, or accessed (such as documents, emails, chats, etc.)?Yes. The update to PowerPoint Live functionality may affect how presentation content is synchronized and rendered across Teams clients, but it does not introduce new data storage or retention changes.
