To answer your query, Yes. Having a Data Protection Addendum (DPA) is crucial to ensure GDPR compliance when processing personal data for your EU-based clients.

Microsoft takes data privacy and security very seriously including Azure OpenAI. It is designed to adhere to GDPR regulations. For more information, see the Azure OpenAI data, privacy, and security guide. and Microsoft’s GDPR Commitments to Customers of our Generally Available Enterprise Software Products.

Take a look at the Microsoft Products and Services Data Protection Addendum, which governs data processing by the Azure OpenAI Service except as otherwise provided in the applicable Product Terms and Microsoft Azure Legal Information.
