Effective Date: December 5, 2025
Privacy Policy
This policy is specifically for the Microsoft Teams application “Analytics 365” produced by Micro Plus Software Limited, a company registered in England (company number 02843012), whose principal place of business is at 10 Moorcroft, Harlington Road, Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3HD, United Kingdom (“Tollring”).
By using data generated from everyday work in Office 365, Analytics 365 helps you understand how we spend our work time and who we spend it with, and then presents actionable insights how to work smarter and how effectively we are engaging with our co-workers and customers.
Data Privacy
Analytics 365 converts data into insights by performing calculations on information that people generate through call and collaboration activity in Microsoft Teams, providing those with permissions access to metrics to help facilitate business decisions. The suite of applications is designed to deliver dashboards that help to review and improve customer engagement and experience. Where calls are recorded using Analytics 365, privacy settings ensure that the right people have access to the content of conversations:
- Analytics 365 Call Analytics provides an overview of call activity by user, group and call queue. Permissions within the application restrict data to ensure the right users have access to the right information.
- Analytics 365 Call Recording provides recording of Teams PSTN calls and Teams to Teams meetings. Recording policies and permissions can be set to ensure the right calls are recorded and the right people have access to play back conversations.
- Analytics 365 Conversation Analytics transcribes conversations for analysis. Sentiment and conversation topics can be used to quickly find the conversations that matter. Recording policies and permissions can be set to ensure the right calls are recorded and the right people have access to analyse conversations.
- Analytics 365 Collaboration Analytics provides insights to individuals and team leaders, delivering a holistic view of collaboration activity across the organization. Permissions within the application restrict data to ensure the right users have access to the right information. Administrators can configure Analytics 365 collaboration analytics licences to be ‘off’ for any specific individuals within the organization.
When signing up to Analytics 365, authorisation need to be granted to allow Microsoft 365 to synchronise with the application. Please note: disabling these permissions will restrict the analytics displayed and application performance will be sub-optimal.
- Analytics 365 Call Analytics requires the following authorisation:
- Organization to synchronise users, groups and call queues.
- Access to call data.
- Access to presence and incoming number data.
- Analytics 365 Recording and Conversation Analytics requires authorisation to synchronise users, groups and call queues and to enable the recording interface.
- When granting permission, two users will be created in your Azure directory which should NOT be deleted. These users are associated with your Microsoft recording policy and direct traffic to the recording portal.
- Once permission has been granted, you will also be asked to set up your Microsoft recording policy, select users to be recorded and disable/enable the Microsoft recording audio notification for participants who are not using the Teams app.
- The Analytics 365 Recording Client app can be used by licensed recorded users to pause, resume and discard recordings. Users can download the Analytics 365 Recording Client app, or search for it in Microsoft Teams apps.
- Analytics 365 Collaboration Analytics requires authorisation to provide data on licensed users:
- Is enabled to access basic user profiles in Microsoft 365. Managers are only identified within the application if the organizational hierarchy has been set up with direct report information in Microsoft 365. Managers have the option to edit their team list if they notice any inaccuracies. Any changes the manager makes are used only in their Analytics 365 experience, and are not synchronized back to Azure AD.
-
- Calls. Enable analytics on call events made.
- Messages. Enable access to provide general analytics on messages. Messages are processed by Microsoft to deliver a sentiment score to the application. It is NOT possible to access the content of messages / personal chat.
- Meetings. Enable to provide analytics on meetings.
Privacy Settings
Analytics 365 provides configurable settings and controls within the applications, that are designed to enable organizations and their members to address varying legal and policy needs regarding privacy and use of employee data. When enabling Analytics 365 for the organization, administrators can make the following choices:
- Determine which people have access. Admins can determine which people can access Analytics 365 by assigning permissions to only those people who should have access.
- Determine individual subscriptions. Licenses are assigned by administrators and can be revoked at any time. Analytics 365 can be configured to be “default on,” which means that licensed employees automatically contribute to incremental data and have access to their dashboard via the application, but can subsequently opt out through the settings menu.
- Determine which employees should be excluded from incremental data. Some organizations may have employees in roles who should never contribute to incremental data. To support this, Analytics 365 provides admins with the ability to manage settings to ensure these users do not contribute to incremental data. Employees only contribute to incremental data when they are issued a license with the Analytics 365 service.
Data Processing
Analytics 365 data is processed and stored in the Azure Cloud, in the data region specified on sign up. Analytics 365 processes data from the Microsoft Graph API with both the organization’s IT administrator and an individual opt in process.
- Analytics 365 is a third-party application that’s built on Microsoft Graph. Microsoft Graph consists of a set of REST-based API calls that allow developers to interact with the Microsoft technologies that a given organization uses. In order to use these API calls, developers must have specific permissions to access any data they request. Administrators control both the deployment of any Microsoft Graph application and permissions to access these applications.
- The Microsoft Graph cannot be turned on or off globally through the Office 365 Admin Center, but administrators can achieve this effect by blocking employees’ ability to install third-party apps or by restricting developer access permissions. Learn more about Microsoft Graph.
Data Retention
While a person has an active subscription, all incremental data will be populated to the service:
- Analytics 365 stores call and collaboration analytics data for 12 months. Analytics 365 allows people to review up to 12 months of historic data. The service will only hold your data for a rolling 12-month period.
- When an employee is unsubscribed, their data will be removed. When this happens, incremental data will immediately stop being made available to the service. All historic data pertaining to the person will be removed from the service within 30 days of termination of the service.
- Call recordings are retained for the period specified in the licence name (Eg. 90 day, 1 year, 7 year). While a person has an active subscription, all incremental data will be populated to the service.
- If all subscriptions are cancelled, recordings should be downloaded.
