Enabling or disabling suggestions matching public code
Note
If you are a member of an organization on GitHub Enterprise Cloud who has been assigned a GitHub Copilot seat through your organization, you will not be able to configure suggestions matching public code in your personal account settings. Your setting for suggestions matching public code will be inherited from your organization or enterprise.
Your personal settings for GitHub Copilot include an option to either allow or block code suggestions that match publicly available code. If you choose to block suggestions matching public code, GitHub Copilot checks code suggestions with their surrounding code of about 150 characters against public code on GitHub. If there is a match, or a near match, the suggestion is not shown to you.
If you choose to allow suggestions matching public code, when Copilot suggests matching code you can display details of the matches and click through to the relevant repositories on GitHub. For more information, see 查找与 GitHub Copilot 建议匹配的公开代码.

Enabling or disabling prompt and suggestion collection
You can choose whether your prompts and Copilot's suggestions are collected and retained by GitHub, and further processed and shared with Microsoft. For more information about data that GitHub Copilot may collect depending on your settings, see GitHub 附加产品和功能条款 and the GitHub Copilot privacy FAQ.

Enabling or disabling web search for GitHub Copilot Chat
