TeleSource Responsible AI & Data Handling Statement

TeleSource Communications, Inc. | Responsible AI. Responsible Data. Human Accountability.

TeleSource Communications, Inc. uses artificial intelligence to enhance research, analysis, communications, visualization, productivity, and technology advisory services. AI is used as an assistive technology—not as a substitute for professional judgment, customer authorization, or appropriate data-security practices.

Our responsible AI approach is guided by the following principles:

1. Data Minimization

We seek to limit information submitted to AI systems to what is reasonably necessary for the intended business purpose. Passwords, authentication credentials, payment information, and other highly sensitive information should not be submitted to general-purpose AI systems.

2. Privacy & Platform Controls

Where available and appropriate, TeleSource utilizes privacy and data controls provided by AI platforms, including model-training opt-out controls. The privacy, retention, security, and processing practices applicable to a particular AI service remain subject to that provider’s terms, policies, configuration, and service tier.

3. Confidential & Regulated Information

The use of AI does not supersede contractual confidentiality requirements, customer instructions, applicable privacy requirements, CPNI obligations, or other restrictions governing customer or third-party information. Information requiring specialized handling should be evaluated before use with an AI service.

4. Human Accountability

AI-generated information may assist TeleSource personnel with analysis and decision support. Responsibility for customer-facing recommendations, business decisions, and professional judgment remains with TeleSource personnel. AI-generated information should be evaluated for accuracy and appropriateness based upon its intended use.

5. Security-Conscious AI Adoption

TeleSource evaluates AI as part of the broader technology ecosystem, considering privacy, cybersecurity, access controls, data governance, vendor practices, and business risk—not solely AI functionality.

Our Commitment

TeleSource believes organizations should be able to benefit from AI without abandoning established principles of privacy, security, confidentiality, and human accountability.

Our objective is simple:

Use AI to improve the intelligence of the process—not unnecessarily increase the exposure of the data.

This statement describes TeleSource’s general approach to responsible AI use and data handling. It is not intended to create contractual warranties, guarantees, or representations beyond those contained in an applicable written agreement.
