- question: Where is Windows Hello biometrics data stored?
answer: |
When you enroll in Windows Hello, a representation of your face called an enrollment profile is created (more information can be found on this page). This enrollment profile biometrics data is device specific, is stored locally on the device, and does not leave the device or roam with the user. Some external fingerprint sensors store biometric data on the fingerprint module itself rather than on Windows device. Even in this case, the biometrics data is stored locally on those modules, is device specific, doesn’t roam, never leaves the module, and is never sent to Microsoft cloud or external server. For more details see [Windows Hello biometrics in the enterprise](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/identity-protection/hello-for-business/hello-biometrics-in-enterprise#where-is-windows-hello-data-stored).
