Scenario 1
Your company is developing an AI system and is unsure in which risk category of the AI Act the AI system falls and what then the related obligations for compliance with the AI Act are.

Scenario 2
The legal team in your company makes use of generative AI tools, but there is no real guidance or policy relating to the use thereof.

Scenario 3
AI systems process and create personal data. Continued compliance with the GDPR and data protection legislation is thereof of the essence. Given the specificities of AI systems, your company is unsure how to apply GDPR and data protection legislation to the processing.

Scenario 1
Through an analysis of the AI system and the criteria under the AI Act, we can determine the risk category. We can then assist with defining the applicable obligations under the AI Act and a roadmap for compliance.

Scenario 2
We can offer a workshop for legal departments to understand the risks and opportunities of generative AI and/or draft an AI code of conduct/policy/chapter as part of existing policies which sets out the permissions and restrictions.

Scenario 3
Considering your company's existing GDPR framework, we will evaluate if this is suitable and sufficient for the processing by AI systems. We will advise and implement necessary modifications to the GDPR framework.
