Crans & Co. may use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning technologies to support our work. This policy explains how AI is used, the role of human oversight, the limitations of AI, and how your information may be processed when AI-powered features are involved.

AI Usage

We may use AI and machine learning to assist in:

• Software development
• Automation
• Workflow design
• Documentation
• Research
• Analysis
• Content generation
• Website development
• Internal system design

All deliverables remain subject to human oversight before delivery where appropriate.

Third-Party AI Providers

Certain features may utilize trusted third-party AI providers. Examples of such providers include organizations similar to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other enterprise AI services. We do not represent that every listed provider is always used, and the specific providers we rely on may change over time as services and capabilities evolve.

User Input Processing

When you interact with AI-powered functionality, the information you submit may be securely processed through third-party AI APIs for the purpose of providing the requested functionality. This may include transmitting your input to a provider’s servers for processing and returning a result.

AI Limitations

AI-generated content may contain mistakes, omissions, or inaccuracies. Clients should independently review all outputs before relying on them for:

• Business decisions
• Financial decisions
• Legal decisions
• Medical decisions
• Compliance decisions
• Operational implementation

No Professional Advice

AI-generated responses are general information and are not legal, financial, accounting, tax, medical, or regulatory advice. For advice specific to your situation, consult an appropriately qualified professional.

Model Training

Crans & Co. does not intentionally use client confidential information to train proprietary AI models. Third-party providers may have their own data-handling practices according to their published privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies to understand how they treat submitted information.

Human Oversight

AI assists our professionals; it does not replace professional judgment. Where appropriate, outputs are reviewed by a person before being delivered or acted upon. Final responsibility for deliverables and decisions remains with our team and our clients.

Security

We follow commercially reasonable security practices when working with AI tools, but no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of information processed through third-party AI APIs.

Changes to This Policy

As AI technology and its governance evolve, we may update this policy. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
