AI Training Policy

AI Policy on Indigenous Repositories

Our organization adheres to a rigorous AI policy that ensures the protection of Indigenous assets, respecting cultural sensitivities and data ownership.

• The policy explicitly states that we will not run artificial intelligence on Indigenous datasets, archives, or media assets unless direct consent is obtained from rightful knowledge keepers and governing bodies.

• Under no circumstances will our systems leverage Indigenous data for training, modeling, or analytics without a formalized, transparent agreement that includes clear rights and protections.

• We are committed to prioritizing data sovereignty—Indigenous data remains under Indigenous control at all times.

• The policy Supports ongoing consultation with Indigenous communities to update protocols and ensure evolving concerns are effectively addressed.

• Staff and partners receive ongoing training to recognize and uphold data protection responsibilities.

• Access to Indigenous materials is tightly controlled, regularly audited, and logged for accountability.

• Any exceptions to this policy require high-level authorization and documented community consent,before any AI Training is commenced.

• This approach aligns with our ethical values of respect, stewardship, and collaboration, reinforcing trust in our stewardship of culturally significant materials.

Our brand, OpenBroadcaster, stands firmly for data stewardship and community partnership.
