Data protection and project safeguards
Updated 28 October 2026
Start with the proposed use of data
Data safeguards depend on the workflow, systems and information involved. Before implementation, the engagement needs to define the purpose of processing, the people with access and the responsibilities of Elevate AI, the client and connected suppliers.
What to establish before a build
- Necessary data and lawful access; use redacted or synthetic examples where appropriate.
- Permissions, human approvals and escalation for sensitive or uncertain actions.
- Supplier terms, processing locations, international transfers and model-training settings.
- Retention, deletion, logs, recovery and incident responsibilities appropriate to the scope.
- Testing and acceptance criteria, including how exceptions are handled.
These are scoping requirements, not a claim that every configuration has identical controls. Any particular certification, hosting location or service level must be evidenced in the engagement documentation.
Client and supplier responsibilities
Where processing personal data on a client’s behalf is in scope, the relevant roles, instructions and processing terms need to be agreed before access. A tool’s features do not by themselves establish compliance. Regulated decisions stay with the appropriately authorised people.
