## Configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} settings on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}

For more information about setting up a trial or subscription for your personal account, see "[AUTOTITLE](/billing/managing-billing-for-github-copilot/managing-your-github-copilot-subscription-for-your-personal-account)." For more information about setting up a subscription for your organization or enterprise, see "[AUTOTITLE](/billing/managing-billing-for-github-copilot/managing-your-github-copilot-business-subscription)" or{% ifversion fpt %}, in the {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %} documentation,{% endif %} "[AUTOTITLE](/enterprise-cloud@latest/billing/managing-billing-for-github-copilot/managing-your-github-copilot-enterprise-subscription)."
Once you have an active {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_for_individuals %} trial or subscription, you can adjust {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} settings for your personal account on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} in the [{% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} settings](https://github.com/settings/copilot). The settings apply anywhere that you use {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %}. You can configure the suggestions that {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} offers and how {% data variables.product.company_short %} uses your telemetry data.
### Enabling or disabling duplication detection
{% data reusables.copilot.duplication-setting-org %}
Your personal settings for {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} include an option to either allow or block code completion suggestions that match publicly available code. If you choose to block suggestions matching public code, {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} checks code completion suggestions with their surrounding code of about 150 characters against public code on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. If there is a match, or a near match, the suggestion is not shown to you.
If you choose to allow suggestions matching public code, and you accept a suggestion for which one or more matches were found, you can click through from an entry in the {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot %} log to view a list of references on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %}. For more information, see "[AUTOTITLE](/copilot/using-github-copilot/finding-public-code-that-matches-github-copilot-suggestions)."
