## About delegating policy decisions to organizations
|
|
|
|
Policies can be defined for a whole enterprise, or set at the organization level. See [AUTOTITLE](/copilot/concepts/policies).
|
|
|
|
When an enterprise owner delegates control of a policy to organization owners by setting "No policy," some organizations may enable a feature while others disable it. Users may be granted a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} license by organizations with different policies for the same feature.
|
|
|
|
## How availability is determined
|
|
|
|
Feature, model, and privacy settings for users are set according to the **least restrictive** or the **most restrictive** policy defined by any of the organizations where they are granted a {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} license.
|
|
|
|
* **Least restrictive:** if any of the organizations has **enabled** a feature, this feature is enabled for the user everywhere. This applies to all but the more sensitive {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} features.
|
|
|
|
* **Most restrictive:** if any of the organizations has **disabled** a feature, this feature is disabled for the user in all their organizations. This applies only to the most sensitive {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} features, for example: access to {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} metrics using the API.
|
|
|
|
## Availability for members with {% data variables.product.prodname_copilot_short %} from multiple organizations
