Determining which contacts get synchronized
To process personally identifiable information (PII) sensitive fields and anonymous contacts during data synchronization you must change the default Sitecore settings.
Enabling indexing for PII sensitive fields

pipeline step searches FirstName and Email fields to identify which contacts to process. By default, xConnect does not index these fields for privacy reasons.
Before enabling indexing on PII sensitive fields, we recommend that you review the security and data protection features of your search provider.
