Where does the data come from?
People insights profiles only display publicly available information in profiles, similar to what can be found in search engine results for a person's name. If Directory Connector is enabled, people insights profiles will also display internal company directory information to users in the same company. This internal directory information is not visible to users outside the company.
The people insights profiles database doesn't look behind logins or paywalls, which means your profile won't be populated with content from sites like Facebook or LinkedIn—even if those links are displayed on your profile.
For in-depth information about people insights profiles, see the technical paper, People Insights Profiles: Creating a Human Collaboration Experience.
