When you use the `@github` chat participant, {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat %} can use a Bing search to help answer your question if this has been enabled by your administrator.

Your {% data variables.product.prodname_enterprise %} administrator can enable Bing for your whole enterprise, or can delegate this decision to the organizational administrator. For more information, see "[AUTOTITLE](/admin/policies/enforcing-policies-for-your-enterprise/enforcing-policies-for-github-copilot-in-your-enterprise#enforcing-a-policy-to-manage-the-use-of-github-copilot-features-on-githubcom)."

When leveraging Bing, {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} will use the content of your prompt, as well as additional available context, to generate a Bing search query on your behalf that is sent to the Bing Search API. {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} will provide a link to the search results with its response. The search query sent to Bing is governed by [Microsoft's Privacy Statement](https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement).

The input prompt from the user is pre-processed by the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_chat_short %} system, combined with contextual information (for example, the name of the repository the user is currently viewing and the files the user has open), and sent to a large language model. User input can take the form of code snippets or plain language.

The large language model will take the prompt, gather additional context (for example repository data stored on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} or search results from Bing), and provide a response based on the prompt. The system is only intended to respond to coding-related questions.
