GitHub Copilot uses Claude Sonnet hosted on Amazon Web Services. When using Claude Sonnet, prompts and metadata are sent to Amazon's Bedrock service, which makes the following data commitments: Amazon Bedrock doesn't store or log your prompts and completions. Amazon Bedrock doesn't use your prompts and completions to train any AWS models and doesn't distribute them to third parties.
When using Claude Sonnet, input prompts and output completions continue to run through GitHub Copilot's content filters for public code matching, when applied, along with those for harmful, offensive, or off-topic content.
