I have a few questions about how Alexa accesses information in Office 365 Outlook's calendar and email.

1) Does the connection occur using Activesync, the O365 API, or some other mechanism?

2) What permissions are needed on the email and calendar? Does Alexa require full owner permission?

3) Can Alexa access be granted to the calendar, and not to Outlook email?

4) I understand that the Alexa privacy setting "Manage how you data improves Alexa" can be turned off. Does this fully protect the confidentiality of the user's Outlook calendar events and email messages?

Thank you in advance.
