Cortana regularly collects and uses your current location, location history, and other location signals (such as locations tagged on photos you upload to OneDrive). This location data is used to give you the most relevant notices and results and to make suggestions that help save you time, such as traffic and location based reminders.

Bing.com has its own Privacy Policy, even though it uses the Microsoft
Services Agreement for its ToS. These privacy points apply only to Bing.com.
This isn't a bad, since it's part of their local search feature, although
the storage of GPS data is concerning.
If you’ve allowed a Bing mobile application to access your location, when
> you conduct a search, the approximate location of your device will be sent
> to Microsoft along with the search terms, time and date of your search and
> a unique identifier generated by the application. This information will be
> used to provide and improve search and mapping results.
>
> Refer to the documentation that came with your device for information
> about how to turn off location for a Bing Search application. If you turn
> off or disable location for the Bing Search application or the browser that
> you use to go to m.bing.com, you will stop sharing your device's location
> with Bing.
>
> When you sign into and use the location-based services, “Check-in” and
> “Reminders”, Microsoft stores the approximate location of your device along
> with your Microsoft account. The location information is used to provide
> relevant search results, offer you deals for local businesses, and operate
> and improve our services. To disable access to your device’s location by
> these services, go to the settings menu of the Bing application and turn
> location to “Off.”
>
> Binglets integrate third party services into Bing search that enable you
> to associate an action with your search results. For example, if you search
> on restaurants, a Binglet provides the functionality to enable you to
> reserve a table. When you use a third party “Binglet” within a Bing
> application, information you provide to the Binglet is shared with the
> third party named in it. For details about the third party’s information
> collection and usage practices, see the privacy policy on their web site.
> Bing doesn’t separately collect or store information provided to a third
> party Binglet.
>
> Mapping features on Microsoft's sites and services are based in part on
> the Bing Maps service. Bing Maps is a set of mapping and related services
> that can be accessed through an application such as a Web site, desktop
> software, or mobile application. When you submit information, such as an
> address to be viewed on a map, to the application, that application passes
> it to Bing Maps for processing.
>
> We keep track of all requests the application you are using makes to the
> Bing Maps Service. Location-related information in the request or derived
> from the request, may be used for calculating payments to our data vendors
> so that we may operate the service. We will occasionally capture all
> information in the request for use in testing and maintenance of the
> service. This information includes the date and time of the request and
> location-related information you may have provided to the application such
> as latitude and longitude, address, place name or the start and end address
> of a route.
