1. Our AI principles
- Privacy first. Customer Data is never used to train third-party foundation models.
- Human in the loop. AI proposes — people decide. We don’t make fully automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects on individuals.
- Transparency. Users see when content is AI-generated and can review the source.
- Minimisation. We only send the data the model actually needs to produce a useful answer.
- Customer control. Admins can disable AI features for their workspace.
2. Where we use AI today
- Onboarding guidance — answering common questions about Sweden-specific steps (Migrationsverket, Skatteverket, BankID, housing, etc.).
- Document summarisation — short summaries of permit decisions, contracts, or letters uploaded by HR or the hire.
- Drafting — first-draft of emails, checklists, and reminders that HR can edit before sending.
- Translation — translating onboarding messages and instructions between supported languages.
- Search & retrieval — semantic search over a customer’s own workspace content (never across customers).
We do not use AI for: scoring or ranking candidates, eligibility decisions, immigration outcomes, or any decision that legally binds a person without explicit human review.
3. How AI handles your data
- No training on Customer Data, prompts, or outputs by Settio or our AI providers.
- Zero retention at the model provider beyond what is required for abuse prevention (typically 0–30 days), under enterprise contracts.
- EU-hosted inference where available; otherwise we use providers under SCCs with technical safeguards (encryption in transit, scoped access, audited).
- Minimisation: we strip unnecessary identifiers from prompts; redact obvious PII fields when not required for the task.
- Logging of AI calls is metadata-only by default; full prompts/outputs are only kept when needed for debugging, with retention limits and access controls.
4. Model providers
Settio uses enterprise-grade AI providers chosen for their security posture, EU presence, and contractual no-training and zero-retention terms. The current list of AI subprocessors is published at /subprocessors. Any change is notified at least 30 days in advance.
5. Human oversight
- AI suggestions are surfaced as drafts, summaries, or proposed actions — never as final decisions.
- Sensitive workflows (e.g. permit-related communications) require explicit confirmation from an HR user before sending.
- Hires can always escalate from an AI answer to a human contact on their HR team.
6. Known limits and risks
AI can be wrong, biased, or out of date. We mitigate this by grounding responses in verified Sweden-specific sources where possible, displaying source links when we have them, and clearly marking AI-generated content. Even so:
- Treat AI output as a draft, not legal, immigration, or tax advice.
- Always have a human review AI-generated communications before they are sent to a hire.
- Report incorrect or harmful output to [email protected].
7. EU AI Act alignment
Our AI features are designed with the EU AI Act’s risk classification in mind. Settio does not deploy prohibited AI practices and does not use AI as a stand-alone decision system in high-risk areas such as employment outcomes. For features that could touch employment workflows, we apply additional safeguards:
- clear documentation of AI capabilities and limitations;
- human-in-the-loop by design, with audit trails;
- transparency notices so users know when they interact with AI;
- ongoing risk assessment and a process for handling user reports.
8. Customer controls
- Workspace toggle: admins can turn AI features on or off for their workspace.
- Per-feature opt-out: granular control over specific AI features (e.g. AI drafts, AI search).
- Audit log: every AI-assisted action is recorded with the human user who triggered it.
- Data residency: customers can request EU-hosted inference for all AI features (default where available).
