Policies

Free Law Project's mission is to advance open access to the law. These policies establish guidelines for the responsible use and development of artificial intelligence at FLP, ensuring that AI supports that mission without compromising the accuracy, integrity, or trustworthiness of our data and services.

Scope

These policies apply to all FLP staff, contractors, and volunteers. The AI Use Policy governs how individuals use AI tools in their work. The AI Development Policy governs how teams build and deploy AI-powered systems and features.
