Never input confidential, private or personal information about yourself or others into these tools. Always reflect first on the nature of the information you are using, because once you enter it into one of these tools, it’s no longer confidential.

Since there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ rule regarding the use of AI in assessment, it is recommended that teachers make explicit to students what kind of use is not legitimate in their course, and what rules accompany the use of AI tools.

However, enterprise licenses such as Microsoft 365 Copilot via your EPFL account are currently not a secure solution for processing regulated data, because no data processing agreement has been signed by EPFL that would guarantee that data protection measures align with institutional needs or with Swiss legislation on personal data protection.
