    Certified custom visuals and custom visuals developed by Microsoft don’t send any data over internet. Such custom visuals can be used for sensitive data.

    Some custom Visuals might send data to third-party services for additional analytics.

    We'd recommned to contact developers of custom visuals to ask what data their CVs send.

     

    We'd also recommend to use certified CV. Tag certified means that we have not find any security issues and sending data to 3rd party services.

There's no way at least for now. The organisation store for custom visuals is coming soon to cover this functionality.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

'Organisation store for custom visuals' sounds great and would solve the issue.
