Write an internal AI usage policy that doesn't ban anything useful

Legal Policies Intermediate 🤖 ChatGPT 👁 3 views

📝 The Prompt

We need an internal AI usage policy. The default version — 'don't paste customer data into ChatGPT, talk to legal before using AI for anything' — will either be ignored or block useful work. I want a policy that's strict where it matters and permissive where it doesn't. Draft it. Constraints: 1. Length: one page. Anything longer doesn't get read. 2. Make the 'do not do this' list short and specific. Three rules, not fifteen. 3. Explicitly call out things the team is allowed to do without asking — most policies are silent on the green light cases. 4. Have one section called 'when to escalate' with clear triggers, not 'use judgment.' 5. Include one paragraph about why this policy exists — without it sounding like CYA language. People follow policies they understand the reason for. Our context: [paste 3-4 sentences about company size, regulated industry y/n, type of data we handle].

⚙️ Replace 1 placeholder: [paste 3-4 sentences about company size, regulated industry y/n, type of data we handle]

🚀 How to use this prompt

  1. Copy the prompt using the 📋 button above.
  2. Open ChatGPT (or Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, or your preferred LLM).
  3. Paste the prompt into a new chat. Replace 1 bracketed placeholder ([paste 3-4 sentences about company size, regulated industry y/n, type of data we handle] ) with your own details.
  4. Run the prompt and review the AI's response. Most outputs are usable immediately.
  5. Iterate if needed — if the tone, length, or structure isn't quite right, reply with "make it shorter", "use bullet points", or "make it more formal" and the AI will refine it.

💡 Tips for better results

  • Replace the bracketed placeholders ([paste 3-4 sentences about company size, regulated industry y/n, type of data we handle]) with your own specifics before sending.
  • If the first output isn't quite right, ask the AI to refine, rewrite, or add more detail — iteration is key.
  • For long outputs, ask for a section at a time (e.g. 'start with the introduction only') to keep quality high.
  • Combine this with other legal prompts to build an end-to-end workflow.
  • Save your favorite variations — small wording tweaks often produce noticeably different results.
