No, there is a privacy policy and they would get in legal trouble if they violated it.

How would anyone know that? Is anyone checking on them? There’s been plenty of instances of companies breaking their own, even legally binding, word
I haven't read the privacy policy (who does?) But I am willing to bet that it doesn't restrict MS to these purposes and in fact allows them to do whatever they want for any reason.
