Thrive Offline AI policy

Effective date: April 15, 2026

1. AI policy statement

Thrive Offline recognizes that artificial intelligence can help improve efficiency, creativity, and communication. We may use approved AI tools for drafting, summarizing, brainstorming, translation support, and administrative tasks. AI will not be used to make final decisions on behalf of the organization without human review, and it will not replace the relational, ethical, and reflective work at the heart of our mission.

When using AI, we will:

• Review all outputs for accuracy and appropriateness.
• Avoid entering sensitive personal or confidential information into AI tools unless approved and protected.
• Keep humans accountable for final decisions, public statements, and community-facing content.
• Update our approach as AI tools, laws, and best practices evolve.

2. AI principles

• We use AI only when it supports our mission and improves our ability to serve our community.
• Human oversight remains essential for any public, strategic, financial, or people-related decision.
• We will protect privacy and handle data carefully when using AI tools.
• We will review AI outputs for accuracy, bias, and tone before using them.
• We will be transparent about when AI is used in our work.
• We will evaluate AI tools regularly to ensure they remain aligned with our values and community trust.

3. How we use AI

Thrive Offline may use AI tools to support writing, research, administration, and communications so our team can spend more time on mission-centered work. We use AI as a support tool, not a replacement for human judgment, care, or accountability. We review AI-assisted content before it is shared, and we aim to use AI in ways that are transparent, responsible, and aligned with our values.
