What is Microsoft Delve?
Use Microsoft Delve to manage your Office 365 profile, and to discover and organize the information that is likely to be the most interesting to you right now. It allows for intelligent search and indexing across the entire Office 365 suite.
Only you can view your personal data. Delve never changes permissions, so you will only see documents that you already have access to. Other people will not see your private documents.
Who can see my documents?
You're always in control. Only you can see your private documents in Delve unless you decide to share them. Your private documents are marked with a padlock and the text Private Document.
You can see who has access to a specific document from within Delve, and you can also share the document with others. You can also stop sharing a document to prevent people from seeing it.
Who can see attachments?
When you or others share a document as an attachment in an email, only people in the email conversation will see that document in Delve.
Attachments are marked with a paper clip on the content card
How can I share a document with others?
To make Delve a great experience for everyone in your network, it's important that you and your colleagues store and share your documents where Delve can get to them: in OneDrive for Business or SharePoint in Office 365

How can I keep a document private?
If you want to keep a document private, store it in OneDrive for Business and choose not to share it. These documents will not show up in Delve for other users. Your private documents are marked with a padlock and the text Private document.
Documents that aren't shared, are marked with a padlock and the text Only you in the Sharing column in OneDrive for Business.
If you want, you can always share the document with others later
Can I delete a document from Delve?
Documents are not stored in Delve, so you can't delete documents from Delve directly. The documents are stored other places in Office 365, for example in OneDrive for Business or in SharePoint. Only people who already have access to a document can see it in Delve.
To delete a document, or prevent it from showing up in Delve, use the link in the lower left of the content card to go to the location where the document is stored.
