Data & Governance
Use your own data with confidence. We turn privacy, retention, access and policy into practical guardrails your team will actually follow, plus a straightforward AI policy you can adopt the same week.
Overview
Use your own data with confidence, not crossed fingers.
The moment your team started using AI, your data started going somewhere. Client details in a prompt, a contract pasted in for summarising, sensitive numbers dropped into a chatbot, usually with the best intentions and no rules at all. For most businesses the “AI policy” is a vague hope that everyone’s being sensible.
This session replaces hope with practical guardrails. We work through privacy, retention, access and approval in plain language, what’s safe to share, what isn’t, and how to tell the difference, then turn it into a straightforward AI policy your team will actually follow. You leave with a usable document, not legalese, you can adopt the same week.
Who it’s for: Owners, managers and anyone responsible for how a team uses AI safely, especially in firms handling client or sensitive data. Comfortable with everyday AI use (our intermediate courses, or equivalent). No legal background needed.
Walk out able to…
A real policy and the confidence to enforce it. Here’s what you’ll leave with.
-
Know what’s safe to share
Draw a clear line between information that’s fine for AI tools and information that never belongs in one.
-
Handle privacy and retention
Understand where your data goes, how long it’s kept, and how to keep client information protected.
-
Set access and approval
Decide who can use which tools for what, with sensible sign-off for the higher-risk stuff.
-
Write an AI policy that sticks
Leave with a plain-language policy your team will actually read, understand and follow.
-
Choose tools on the right terms
Read the settings and data terms that matter, so you pick tools that respect your obligations.
-
Stay compliant as you grow
Put simple review habits in place so your guardrails keep pace as your AI use expands.
