See [GitHub Copilot policies for enterprises and organizations](/en/copilot/concepts/policies).\n\n1. Navigate to your enterprise. For example, from the [Enterprises](https://github.com/settings/enterprises?ref_product=ghec\\&ref_type=engagement\\&ref_style=text) page on GitHub.com.\n2. At the top of the page, click ** AI controls**.\n3. Navigate to the page containing the policies you want to manage:\n\n * To view policies for **AI agents**, in the sidebar, click **Agents**.\n * To view administration, privacy, model, billing, and usage policies for **Copilot**, in the sidebar, click **Copilot**.\n * To view policies for **Copilot** features and clients, in the sidebar, click **Copilot**, then, under \"Features & clients,\" click **Configure features & clients**.\n * To view policies for **Model Context Protocol (MCP)**, in the sidebar, click **MCP**.\n4. Configure your policies as follows:\n * For policies with a **dropdown menu**, select the menu and click an enforcement option.\n * For policies with a **toggle**, click the toggle to set availability or enforcement.\n * For policies with **no visible dropdown menu or toggle**, click the name of the policy for configuration options.\n\n> \\[!NOTE]\n> The **MCP servers in Copilot** policy controls use where MCP server support is generally available (GA). This policy does not control access and permissions for the GitHub MCP server in third-party host applications (like Cursor, Windsurf or Claude). For more information on controlling access to the GitHub MCP server, see the [Policies and Governance](https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server/blob/main/docs/policies-and-governance.md#control-mechanisms) documentation in the GitHub MCP Server repository.\n\n**Suggestions matching public code** is set to **Blocked** by default for Copilot Business users. You can change this setting in the **Privacy** section of the Copilot policy page.\n\n## Opting in to feedback collection\n\nIf you enable \"Copilot in GitHub.com\" from the \"Features & clients\" page, you can also opt in to user feedback collection to help GitHub improve Copilot features.\n\n## Further reading\n\n* [Feature availability when GitHub Copilot policies conflict in organizations](/en/copilot/reference/enterprise-administrators/policy-conflicts)\n* [Supported surfaces for GitHub Copilot policies](/en/copilot/reference/supported-surfaces-for-policies)"}
