I have question about the Azure Cognitive Service – Computer Vision API.

I upload our image at Computer Vision API "Read" (https://westus.dev.cognitive.microsoft.com/docs/services/computer-vision-v3-2-preview-3/operations/5d986960601faab4bf452005) end point and immediately call "Analyze" endpoint with Operation location URL to detect all the texts in that image.
Now I have few questions to confirm that it adhere to our privacy policy. Below are my questions.
• How long the image uploaded stored in Azure Cloud?
• When this image will be deleted?
• Is there any HIPPA Compliance for the Computer Vision API?
• I understand that the security is the shared responsibility here, what is our responsibility here to ensure the data privacy?
Thanks

    Hi, thanks for reaching out. According to this thread, some of the OCR operations are asynchronous and thus store data temporarily while it is being processed. All data is deleted at a max of 48 hrs. Please review our privacy and compliance document for more details.
