Here you go, pal. Section 7.b. You see where it says "computer information"?

7b states: "Microsoft may use the computer information, accelerator information, search suggestions information, error reports, and Malware reports to improve our software and services. We may also share it with others, such as hardware and software vendors. They may use the information to improve how their products run with Microsoft software."

But in 7a they also point out that "in some cases, you may switch off these features or not use them." Of course, if I were concerned I would turn these features off then block outbound connections to Microsoft, use an offline update utility like WSUSoffline, and not use Internet Explorer or other web services.

They *do* have the *capability* to get absolutely any information from your computer, like real-time screenshots, keystrokes, or webcam feed. ... that is, if you ever ever ever dectect the leak.
