AI Governance Services – Responsible and Compliant AI Use
AI Governance Overview
AI Governance is about creating policies, procedures, and best practices that guide the responsible use of artificial intelligence. In plain terms, it means making sure AI is used in a way that is safe, ethical, transparent, and compliant with data protection laws.
​
Organizations are adopting AI at a rapid pace, but without proper oversight, there are serious risks. Employees may unintentionally share personal data with free tools that reuse or resell that information. AI outputs can contain bias, errors, or discriminatory results if they aren’t reviewed by humans. And without clear guidelines, teams may use tools in ways that put the company at risk of data breaches, regulatory violations, or reputational damage.
​
AI governance helps businesses get ahead of these risks. By educating staff, setting boundaries for what tools can be used, and putting oversight in place, companies can embrace AI safely while protecting sensitive information. Without it, organizations risk having an uneducated workforce, inaccurate results, and misuse of personal data—all of which can lead to legal and financial consequences.
What’s Included in the Service
Our AI governance service is designed to help companies put structure around how AI is selected, deployed, and used. We collaborate with clients to:
​
-
Develop AI governance frameworks and policies tailored to your business.
-
Build catalogues and vetting processes for approved AI tools.
-
Create guidelines and training so employees understand how to use AI responsibly.
-
Provide resources for ethical AI use, covering privacy, compliance, transparency, and fairness.
Our focus is twofold: ensuring data privacy and legal compliance while also promoting responsible, fair, and transparent use of AI. We help organizations strike the right balance—using AI to innovate while staying within ethical and regulatory boundaries.
Customization & Collaboration Process
No two organizations use AI in the same way, which is why we design our governance programs to be flexible and collaborative.
Assessment
We begin by reviewing your current AI usage. If you already have systems in place, we evaluate them for compliance, privacy, and ethical risks. If you’re starting from scratch, we help you build a structured framework from the ground up.
Documentation & Tools
We provide templates, guidance documents, and catalogues of vetted tools. We also develop policies that your workforce can actually use in their daily decision-making.
Training & Workshops
We offer training sessions to make sure employees understand the risks of AI and know how to use tools responsibly. These sessions are customized to the different roles in your company.
Ongoing or One-Time Support
Some clients want us to train their teams so they can manage governance internally, while others prefer us to provide ongoing assessments as new AI tools emerge. We can support both models.
The Benefits of Working with Oso
Organizations turn to Oso Data Privacy because we know how to balance innovation with risk. We understand that some companies are risk-averse and want to limit AI usage, while others are more open to experimentation. Our role is to meet you where you are—helping you set policies and practices that reflect your risk appetite while still protecting your data and reputation.
​
We also stay current on global AI regulations and frameworks, including the EU AI Act, U.S. federal and state guidance, and evolving standards across Latin America. This ensures that the programs we design for you are aligned not just with today’s rules, but with where regulations are heading.
​
Our team has experience assessing AI tools across multiple industries—insurance, law, accounting, translation, training, and more. This broad perspective allows us to spot potential risks and opportunities that may not be obvious within a single industry.
Who Is a Good Fit for AI Governance Consulting?
Our AI governance service is designed for organizations that rely on third-party AI tools and want to manage them responsibly. It’s especially valuable for:
​
-
Highly regulated industries like finance, healthcare, and insurance, where the misuse of personal data can lead to legal or reputational harm.
-
Professional services firms (law, accounting, consulting) that process sensitive client information and need strong guardrails in place.
-
Vendors and suppliers whose customers now expect evidence of an AI governance program before doing business with them.
-
Mid-sized companies adopting AI across departments but without in-house privacy or compliance teams.
This service is best suited for companies using AI, rather than those building AI models themselves. We help you choose, evaluate, and monitor the tools your employees use every day.
