Trust and data handling
Your data stays yours.
We use only what the agreed work requires - inside a named boundary with human accountability and a defined closeout.
Five controls. One clear boundary.
Operating boundaries for the launch-phase Assessment - not certification claims or a substitute for the signed agreement.
- 01Minimum necessary
Representative information first.
- 02Named access
Only the assigned team.
- 03Agreed purpose
Only for the signed scope.
- 04Human accountability
People review important outputs.
- 05Defined closeout
Return, retention, and deletion agreed.
Information boundary
See the path. See the control points.
The Assessment is fully mapped because it is ArcStride's verified launch model. Production work begins with a new, engagement-specific approval.
AI Systems Opportunity Assessment
One visible path from approval to closeout.
The Assessment uses a limited, non-production boundary. Every stage names what must be true before the work moves forward.
02
Work
Use representative inputs with named access.
- Prefer representative or synthetic inputs
- Limit access to assigned personnel
- Keep the demonstration outside production
03
Review
Keep people accountable for important outputs.
- Retain human review of important outputs
- Document assumptions and exceptions
- Identify implementation requirements
04
Close
Complete the signed return, retention, or deletion path.
- Follow the agreed closeout terms
- Confirm the engagement exit
- Retain no client information in reusable materials
Evidence room
Review the evidence at the right level.
Start with the public overview. Detailed operating and contract materials are shared when the proposed engagement is known.
Start with the overview and website privacy policy.
Shared when a reviewer needs more operating detail.
Final controls follow the actual scope and environment.
Questions reviewers usually ask first.
Do we need to share production data for the Assessment?
No. ArcStride begins with synthetic, de-identified, minimized, or representative information whenever possible. The illustrative demonstration is non-production.
Can people review AI-assisted output?
Yes. Important outputs retain named human review and accountability. The Assessment identifies where future review, approval, and exception handling would be required.
What information is excluded during the launch phase?
CUI, ITAR-controlled information, health data, payment-card data, authentication secrets, and sensitive personal data are excluded unless a separate environment, agreement, and approved control set are established.
What happens to information at the end of the engagement?
Retention, return, and deletion expectations are agreed in writing before transfer and completed according to the signed engagement terms.
