Where is data stored?
- 11 years ago
Data is definitely stored in the cloud for non-live sources.

Note the word "import" under Data Sets.
JonasHans You can't run Power BI as a stand alone locally run program. MS aquired Datazen to fill this gap, and it may be an option for you, but it is currently a different tool all together.
As for security, check out this link with all the additional side links describing the different components.
