1. Purpose of AI in Hafinen

Hafinen uses AI to enhance workplace efficiency, decision support, and operational workflows.

AI features may support candidate screening, resume analysis, job matching, policy drafting, document summarization, internal knowledge retrieval, workforce analytics, regulatory intelligence updates, compliance assistance, research workflows, productivity suggestions, and internal collaboration support.

AI is intended to assist human decision-making, not replace it.

2. Human Responsibility

Customers remain fully responsible for all business, employment, legal, payroll, recruitment, and compliance decisions made using Hafinen.

Users must independently review AI-generated outputs before acting on them.

This includes hiring decisions, promotions, disciplinary actions, payroll approvals, compliance filings, legal policy adoption and terminations.

AI outputs should not be treated as final or authoritative.

3. No Professional Advice

AI-generated outputs may include suggestions related to HR policies, labour workflows, compliance processes, payroll structuring, and operational practices.

These outputs do not constitute legal advice, tax advice, regulatory advice, financial advice, and employment advice.

Customers should consult qualified professionals where necessary.

4. AI Limitations

AI systems may produce inaccurate, incomplete, biased, outdated, or misleading outputs.

This may occur because of incomplete input data, ambiguous prompts, outdated regulatory information, model limitations, and contextual misunderstandings.

Hafinen does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or suitability of AI outputs.

5. Recruitment and Candidate Screening

Where AI is used in recruitment:

  • AI may assist with ranking, filtering, or summarizing candidates
  • AI should not be used as the sole basis for hiring decisions
  • customers remain responsible for fair hiring practices
  • customers must comply with anti-discrimination laws

Customers are solely responsible for ensuring lawful and fair use of AI-assisted recruitment tools.

Customers must not rely exclusively on AI for employee discipline, promotion decisions, compensation decisions, termination decisions, and performance ratings.

Material workforce decisions should involve human oversight.

7. Bias and Fairness

Hafinen is committed to improving fairness in AI-assisted workflows.

However AI may inherit biases from input data, customer-provided data quality affects output quality, and AI recommendations may not be neutral.

Customers should review outputs for fairness and legal compliance.

8. Data Usage for AI Features

Where AI features are enabled, Hafinen may process Customer Data solely to provide AI functionality for that Customer.

Unless explicitly authorized Hafinen will not use Customer Personal Data to train generalized public AI models.

Hafinen may use anonymized data, aggregated insights, and de-identified usage patterns for service improvements and AI optimization.

Customers should exercise caution when submitting highly sensitive information into AI workflows.

This includes health data, criminal records, protected category information, highly confidential legal matters, and trade secrets.

Customers remain responsible for ensuring lawful processing.

10. Regulatory Intelligence Features

Where Hafinen provides AI-assisted regulatory updates or compliance alerts such outputs are informational only. They may not reflect the latest legal developments and should be independently verified.

Hafinen does not guarantee legal completeness or jurisdictional accuracy.

11. Internal Knowledge Systems

AI-powered knowledge systems may summarize company policies, internal documentation, employee handbooks, training materials, and compliance documents.

Customers remain responsible for ensuring underlying source materials are accurate and current.

12. Prohibited Uses

Customers may not use Hafinen AI features to make unlawful discriminatory decisions, conduct unlawful surveillance, generate harmful or abusive content, violate labour laws, violate privacy laws, infringe intellectual property rights, impersonate individuals, generate fraudulent documentation, and perform unlawful profiling.
