You should take a look at Azure Machine Learning, a product I work on at Microsoft: http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/machine-learning/

The Azure organization, just like all of MS, takes privacy and data management super seriously (http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/trust-center/privac...). There's tons of documentation on our policies which are clearly laid out.

For those of us too lazy to read TOS, why is Azure's product less of a privacy or security concern than Google's?

Hah! So is that why Microsoft fired its chief privacy adviser in 2011 for telling a group of MS' National Technology Officers that “If you sell Microsoft cloud computing to your own governments then the FISA law means that the NSA can conduct unlimited mass surveillance on that data”, because they take privacy seriously?
