Custom Vision for Canada region

I used Custom Vision to create a small proof of concept project, and it works super nice; however, now that we are ready for the next steps to see if it is doable to use it, I have got some questions that might be roadblocks if I were to go ahead and work on the business implementation:

  • The service cannot be deployed in Canada regions. Is this something that will be considered in the future? This is a huge block because the items classified may contain data that should not leave the Canadian space

  • What's the privacy terms of using custom vision or where can I find them to read? As the previous item describes, the items classified could contain compromised data, so it would be unfeasible to use the custom vision service if the data is going to be "shared" or "used" by Microsoft or other parties for other purposes.

As a side question, is this service capable of classifying PDF documents as images? And if not, is there a known Azure/Microsoft service that does so?

Thanks a bunch! :)
