## AI Policy

Last updated: 31 March 2026

**Introduction**

This AI Usage Policy explains how artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies may be used in connection with the website sidescoffee.com and related services operated by Collab Sides Ltd (“SIDES Coffee”).

SIDES Coffee is operated by Collab Sides Ltd under licence from EatSIDES / SIDES. This policy outlines our principles for the responsible, transparent, and ethical use of AI in connection with our website, communications, and business operations.

Our approach ensures that AI is used to support efficiency, creativity, and customer experience while maintaining strong standards of human oversight, data protection, and accuracy.

**1. Purpose of AI Use**

Artificial intelligence tools may be used by SIDES Coffee to support activities such as:
- drafting or improving website content

- assisting with marketing or communications

- analysing trends or insights to improve products and services

- supporting operational workflows and efficiency

AI is used solely as a supporting technology. Final decisions, content approvals, and business judgments remain the responsibility of human team members.

**2. Human Oversight**

All AI-assisted content used in public materials, communications, or services is subject to human review before publication or use.

We operate under the principle of “human in, human out”, meaning that:
- human expertise guides the use of AI tools

- AI-generated material is reviewed and validated by qualified team members

- final outputs remain subject to human accountability and editorial oversight

AI does not replace human judgment, creativity, or responsibility within our organisation.

**3. Transparency**

We are committed to transparency in the use of AI technologies.
Where appropriate, we may disclose when AI tools have assisted in the creation of content, analysis, or communications. Our aim is to ensure that AI enhances, rather than replaces, authentic human creativity and brand expression.

**4. Data Privacy and Protection**

Any use of AI tools by SIDES Coffee must comply with applicable data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

We take steps to ensure that:
- personal data is handled responsibly

- confidential information is protected

- appropriate safeguards are in place when interacting with AI technologies

Where possible, anonymised or simulated information may be used when interacting with AI systems.

**5. Responsible Use of Data**

Personal, confidential, or sensitive data will not be used with AI tools unless it is necessary for a legitimate business purpose and appropriate safeguards are in place.

We aim to minimise the use of identifiable information when interacting with AI systems and ensure that any such use aligns with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection regulations.

**6. Approved Technologies**

SIDES Coffee seeks to use reputable and secure AI technologies that meet appropriate standards for security, privacy, and compliance.
We review technologies periodically to ensure they meet our requirements for responsible use and data protection.

**7. Continuous Review**

Artificial intelligence technologies evolve rapidly. We therefore review our AI practices periodically to ensure they remain aligned with legal requirements, ethical standards, and industry best practices.

This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, or our operational practices.

**8. Relationship with Other Policies**

This AI Usage Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which explain how personal information is collected, used, and protected when using our website and services.

**9. Contact Information**
