PROBATIVE CO — STAFF ONE-PAGER · WHAT MAY AND MAY NOT GO INTO AI TOOLS
(free to circulate in your firm — syn@probativeco.com for print-ready PDF)

NEVER, WITHOUT EXCEPTION
  1. Client-confidential information into a personal or free-tier account.
  2. Privileged material into any tool whose retention/training terms you cannot cite.
  3. Another client's data as an "example" — even redacted by hand.
  4. Passport scans, SoF evidence, or verification documents into consumer tools.

ALLOWED WITH THE WRITTEN POLICY
  5. Firm-approved tools, firm accounts, MFA on, DPIA on file (ask the MLRO desk).
  6. General drafting of your OWN words; check every output — the tool is a first pass, not a signature.
  7. Research summaries you then verify against primary sources. Cite nothing you have not opened.

ALWAYS, BEFORE ANYTHING LEAVES THE BUILDING
  8. A human reads it, a human owns it, a human named it in the file note.

IF UNSURE: the question "would I put this in the bundle?" decides it. If not — don't.
