AI Transparency

Where we use AI

AI tools may assist our team during planning, development, delivery, and support. The level of AI assistance varies by project and task.

• Communications and content: drafts of emails, proposals, documentation, descriptions, and other written materials.
• Software development: planning, code suggestions, implementation support, refactoring, and technical documentation.
• Code reviews and quality: analyzing proposed changes, identifying potential issues, reviewing patterns, and suggesting improvements.
• Bugs and troubleshooting: investigating error messages, diagnosing defects, exploring potential fixes, and helping plan tests.
• Testing and maintenance: generating test cases, reviewing test results, researching compatibility, and supporting routine maintenance.
• Business solutions: prototyping workflows, evaluating integrations, analyzing information, and exploring automation opportunities.

Human review and accountability

AI is a tool used by Denton BBQ, not a substitute for our team’s professional judgment. We remain responsible for the work we deliver.

• Our team reviews and approves AI-assisted client-facing communications and deliverables before sending or publishing them.
• AI-suggested code and bug fixes are assessed and tested as appropriate to the change before production deployment.
• Business requirements, system access, customer-specific decisions, and approvals remain under authorized human control.
• AI-generated suggestions can be inaccurate or incomplete; human review does not guarantee error-free results.

Privacy, security, and client information

We take confidentiality and appropriate data handling seriously when considering the use of AI-assisted services.

• We aim to limit the use of client or personal information in AI tools to what is necessary and authorized for the task.
• Credentials, API keys, payment information, and other secrets should not be placed into AI prompts or public materials.
• Where AI providers or other third parties are involved, applicable agreements, access controls, and privacy practices still matter.
• Client-specific agreements may establish additional restrictions or requirements for AI-assisted work.

Transparency without implied endorsement

We may identify the technologies used in a project when relevant, but using a particular AI service does not mean that provider sponsors, certifies, or endorses Denton BBQ LLC. We do not represent AI-assisted work as independently reviewed or approved by an AI provider.
