Corporate Generative AI Usage Guidelines — With Sample Entries

A draft internal AI use policy to announce alongside your training. Written as clauses, it covers what must never be entered, approved tools, checking outputs and citing sources, and how violations are handled. Versions for manufacturing, finance and hospitals swap in industry-specific classification examples and clauses, so you only need to change the company name.

What’s in this document

  • Purpose, scope, and definitions
  • Table of permitted and prohibited inputs by information level
  • Approved tools and the process for approving new ones
  • Output verification, source attribution, and copyright
  • Employee pledge and department checklist
  • 3 industry variants — manufacturing, finance & insurance, hospitals & healthcare

How to use it

  1. Before you announce the policy, align with your data protection and legal teams on the list of information that must not be entered. This table is the heart of the guidelines.
  2. Listing separate allowed uses for personal free accounts and company accounts reduces confusion among staff.
  3. The industry variants are built so you only swap the Article 5 classification examples, the Article 6 prohibited items, and add-on articles such as Article 15-2. You don’t need to renumber any articles.
  4. Don’t just list prohibitions. Include examples of what is allowed (“here’s how you can use it”), and employees will be less likely to use AI in secret.
  5. Before you announce the policy, check the current text of each cited law once more on the National Law Information Center.
  6. Reading the guidelines together at the start of training and collecting signed pledges gets better compliance than an announcement alone.

FAQ

Do we really need in-house AI guidelines?

You need this if employees are already using personal accounts. Without a rule on what must not be entered, you have no basis to stop client data or trade secrets from going into outside services.

Can we use this draft as is?

Fill in the [Company Name] placeholders, the approved tool list and the responsible department, and it is ready to announce. Where it overlaps with your company’s work rules or information security policy, adjust it to your internal standards.

Should guidelines differ by industry?

The core structure (input standards, tool approval, verification, incident response) is the same everywhere. What counts as 'information that must not be entered' differs by industry. Manufacturing centers on drawings and process conditions; finance on personal credit information, financial transaction data, and network separation; hospitals on patient medical records and medical advertising. The three variants cover only those parts.

Are the documents free?

Yes, they are free. Leave your company name, name, and email to download right away, and we will also email a copy of the same files as a single zip file. We do not collect phone numbers.

Can I adapt these as my company's own documents?

Yes. You can change the company name, figures, and approval boxes and use the documents internally as they are. Please credit the source (Nanum Consulting) only if you redistribute them externally.
