Policy

Responsible Use of AI

Last updated: September 2026

Our Commitment

At [ryanmacalandag.com / Creative Marbles], we use artificial intelligence tools to support parts of our creative, research, and administrative work. We believe transparency about how and when AI is used builds trust with our clients, collaborators, and site visitors. This statement outlines our principles and practices around the responsible use of AI.

How We Use AI

AI tools may assist us with tasks such as:
  • Drafting or refining written content, including website copy, emails, and internal documentation
  • Generating early-stage concepts, outlines, or design variations for client review
  • Research, summarization, and organizing information
  • Automating repetitive administrative tasks
  • Code assistance and troubleshooting

What We Do Not Do

  • We do not use AI to generate final client deliverables without human review and refinement.
  • We do not use AI to fabricate credentials, testimonials, reviews, or case studies.
  • We do not input confidential client information, personal data, or proprietary materials into third-party AI tools without appropriate safeguards and, where necessary, client consent.
  • We do not use AI to impersonate real individuals or create misleading deepfake content.

Data & Privacy

Where AI tools process any data on our behalf, we take reasonable steps to:
  • Use reputable providers with clear data-handling and privacy commitments
  • Avoid submitting sensitive personal information or confidential client data to AI tools unless a suitable data processing agreement or safeguard is in place
  • Delete or anonymize data used in AI workflows where practical

Intellectual Property

Where AI tools contribute to creative or written work, we ensure the final output reflects meaningful human authorship, editing, and creative direction. We respect third-party intellectual property rights and do not knowingly use AI to reproduce copyrighted material without appropriate rights or permissions.

Accuracy & Human Oversight

AI-generated content can be inaccurate or outdated. We fact-check and verify AI-assisted content before publishing or delivering it, and a human remains responsible for the accuracy, quality, and appropriateness of all final work.

Transparency

If AI has played a substantial role in producing a specific deliverable for a client, we're happy to disclose that on request. If you have questions about whether or how AI was used in work we've produced for you, feel free to reach out.

Feedback & Contact

We're committed to using AI thoughtfully and will continue to update this statement as our practices, tools, and relevant regulations evolve. If you have questions, concerns, or feedback about our use of AI, please contact us at hello@ryanmacalandag.com.
