The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance to our customers on responsible and acceptable uses of our tools. We aim for our tools to be used responsibly and ethically, while maximizing your control over how you use them.

Learning from real-world use is a critical component of creating and releasing increasingly safe AI tools. We cannot predict all beneficial or abusive uses of our technology, so we proactively monitor for new abuse trends. This policy will continue to advance as AI advances.

Universal Policies

To maximize productivity, customization, and efficiency, we believe you should have the flexibility to use our tools as you see fit, so long as you comply with the law and don’t harm yourself or others. When using any Seekr tool, like Seekr Flow and SeekrAlign, these rules apply:

1. Comply with applicable laws. For example, don’t:
   1. Compromise the privacy of others.
   2. Engage in regulated activity without complying with applicable regulations.
   3. Promote or engage in any illegal activity, including the exploitation or harm of children and the development or distribution of illegal substances, goods, content, or services.
   4. Use subliminal, manipulative, or deceptive techniques that distort a person’s behavior so that they are unable to make informed decisions in a way that is likely to cause harm.
   5. Exploit any vulnerabilities related to age, disability, or socio-economic circumstances.
   6. Create or expand facial recognition databases without consent.
   7. Conduct real-time remote biometric identification in public spaces for law enforcement purposes.
   8. Evaluate or classify individuals based on their social behavior or personal traits (including social scoring or predictive profiling) leading to detrimental or unfavorable treatment.
   9. Infer an individual’s emotions, except when necessary for medical or safety reasons.
   10. Categorize individuals based on their biometric data to deduce or infer sensitive attributes such as their race, political opinions, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation.
2. Don’t use our tools to harm yourself or others. Don’t use our tools to promote violence, suicide or self-harm, develop or use weapons, injure others or destroy property, or engage in unauthorized activities that violate the security of any service or system.
3. Don’t repurpose or distribute output from our tools to harm others. Don’t share output from our tools to defraud, scam, spam, mislead, bully, harass, defame, discriminate based on protected attributes, sexualize children, or promote violence, hatred or the suffering of others.
4. Respect our safeguards. Don’t circumvent safeguards or safety mitigations in our tools unless you have received written consent from Seekr. Refer to the Seekr API and the available product user guides if you have questions.

Building with the Seekr Platform

The Seekr Platform allows you to build customized applications and customized models (“Custom Solutions”) based on your data that adhere to the needs of your business. Our tools are designed to fit the needs of several industries, including financial services, healthcare, and government. As the developer of your Custom Solution, you are responsible for designing and implementing how your users interact with our technology.

We recognize that our tools introduce new capabilities with scalable impact. When building Customer Solutions, adhere to the following rules in addition to our Universal Policies:

1. Don’t compromise the privacy of others, including:
   1. Collecting, processing, disclosing, inferring or generating personal data without complying with applicable legal requirements;
   2. Using biometric systems for identification or assessment, including facial recognition; and
   3. Facilitating spyware, communications surveillance, or unauthorized monitoring of individuals.
2. Don’t perform or facilitate activities that may significantly impair the safety, wellbeing, or rights of others, including:

   2. Making high-stakes automated decisions in domains that affect an individual’s safety, rights or well-being (e.g., law enforcement, migration, management of critical infrastructure, safety components of products, essential services, credit, employment, housing, education, social scoring, or insurance);
   3. Facilitating gambling or payday lending;
   4. Engaging in political campaigning or lobbying, including generating campaign materials personalized to or targeted at specific demographics; and
   5. Deterring people from participation in democratic processes, including misrepresenting voting processes or qualifications and discouraging voting.
3. Don’t misuse our platform to cause harm by intentionally deceiving or misleading others, including:
   1. Generating or promoting disinformation, misinformation, or false online engagement (e.g., comments, reviews);
   2. Impersonating another individual or organization without consent or legal right;
   3. Engaging in or promoting academic dishonesty; and
   4. Failing to ensure that automated systems (e.g., chatbots) disclose to people that they are interacting with AI, unless it’s obvious from the context.
4. Don’t build Custom Solutions that may be inappropriate for minors, including sexually explicit or suggestive content.
5. Don’t build Custom Solutions that target users under 13 years of age.
