AI Use Policy
Effective Date: October 18, 2026
Last Updated: October 18, 2026
Larry Collett Consulting Group (“LCCG,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) helps businesses use AI safely, so we hold our own use of it to the same standard. This policy explains where we use AI on this website and in client work, which providers we use, what we never do with your data, and where a person stays in charge.
1. Where We Use AI on This Website
- Form workflows. When you submit a form, our automation platform may use an AI model to help draft a reply, prepare the resource you asked for, or analyze the public website you submit for an SEO audit.
- Content. We use AI to help research and draft articles and page copy. Larry reviews and edits what is published, and we correct errors when we find them.
- The website itself. The Site’s code was written with AI assistance and is reviewed and tested before it ships, including automated tests for access control on the client portal.
2. Which AI Providers We Use
We use models from OpenAI and Anthropic, accessed through their business APIs, and orchestrate them with our n8n workflow automation platform. We do not paste personal information or client information into consumer chat apps. Under those providers’ API terms, data sent through their APIs is not used to train their models by default; the providers may keep it for a limited period for abuse and safety monitoring under their own terms.
3. What We Never Do
- Use your information or a client’s documents to train AI models.
- Let AI make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects.
- Send client information to an AI tool that is not covered by business terms protecting it.
- Present AI output to a client as finished work without a person reviewing it.
4. AI in Client Engagements
When we work with your business, the engagement agreement governs your data, and these rules apply on top of it:
- Purpose-limited. Your data is used only for your engagement.
- Minimum necessary. We send an AI model only what a task needs, and remove or mask personal information where the task allows it.
- Approved tools only. We use AI providers under business API terms. If you need specific providers excluded, or no AI used on your data at all, tell us and we will work that way.
- Human review. Every deliverable is reviewed by a person before it reaches you.
- Your reports stay private. Client reports are delivered through our client portal, behind individual accounts that can see only their own company’s reports, with no analytics or session recording.
- Testing is authorized. Security testing of a client’s AI systems, such as prompt-injection or data-leakage testing, happens only under a written authorization that sets the scope, timing, and how any data we encounter is handled and destroyed.
5. How We Govern Our Own AI Use
We use the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (AI RMF 1.0) as the reference for governing our own use of AI: we keep a list of the AI tools and workflows we use and the data each one touches, review new tools before adopting them, and revisit this policy when our tools or the law change.
6. Accuracy and Limits
AI output can be wrong, incomplete, or out of date. Content on this Site is general information, not professional advice for your situation. If you rely on something we published and it looks wrong, tell us.
7. Changes to This Policy
We will update the “Last Updated” date above when this policy changes, and give additional notice of significant changes where the law requires it.
8. Questions
Email hello@larrycollett.com with any question about how we use AI, or to ask that we not use AI on your information. Our Privacy Policy covers personal information more broadly.
