23. Artificial Intelligence

In this time of Great Change, we recognize the transformative power of coherent, human-centric and trustworthy use of artificial intelligence (AI) and its profound impact on the world including our community, our creative collaborators and our dedicated team members.

The Gene Keys Companies (Gene Keys Group Ltd, Gene Keys Publishing Ltd and Gene Keys Ltd) aim to align all aspects of their respective business, and their response to these changes in the spirit of the Gene Keys Approach and Noble Code, and in compliance with the existing and future legal regulatory requirements such as the new EU AI Act with its worldwide effect.

Team 64, the team behind the Gene Keys organisation, strives to model and uphold these values in our use of AI tools.

Transparency – Gene Keys books, courses, products and websites do not use AI-generated text. When we develop and/or use any AI systems, we will ensure that such are developed and used in a way that allows appropriate labelling, traceability and explainability, while making all users aware if and when they are interacting with an AI system.

Honour – We respect authorship and honour the source. Gene Keys Publishing Ltd. does not permit content from our books, courses, or website material to be used by AI or machine-learning systems without expressed consent, for any purposes, including training.

Privacy, Consent and Data Governance – Community contributions and customer participation in genekeys.com offerings are not being monitored or used in any AI or machine-learning systems. Any potential future projects that include AI learning will ask for explicit consent first.

Legal and regulatory requirements – We will continue to keep abreast with the changing legal and regulatory landscape, as this may apply to The Gene Keys Companies, especially requirements related to data governance, human agency and oversight, technical robustness, safety, diversity, non-discrimination, fairness and accountability. We will duly inform all deployers of the capabilities and limitations of any AI systems and affected persons about their rights.

Integrity – We are committed to review and update our policies in collaboration with experts to support a safe space for our community contemplation and ensure protection against any potential harmful effects of AI.

Synthesis with Playfulness – When AI tools may be used in our future projects, we invoke the gift of delight with the magic of synchronicity and synthesis as an inspirational aid to human art-making instead of replacing it.

Privacy Policy

This privacy policy sets out how Gene Keys Ltd (herein referred to as ‘Gene Keys’) uses and protects any information that you give Gene Keys when you use this website.

Gene Keys is committed to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Should we ask you to provide certain information by which you can be identified when using this website, then you can be assured that it will only be used in accordance with this privacy statement.

Gene Keys may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes. This policy is effective from 1st May 2019.

Triple Flame App – Data not linked to you

The Triple Flame app may collect some data for analytics, app testing, crash-logging (henceforth referred to as ‘crashlytics’), and core app functionality. This data is not linked to you, and is anonymously submitted.

Submitted data pertaining to the correct working of the “live counter” feature within the app consists of the following fields:

pause start date (ISO GMT)
pause end date (ISO GMT)
pause length
anonymous id (to count unique number of people)
pause timezone

Submitted data pertaining to app analytics are anonymous and not linked to you, nor your device. Anonymous data gathering is enabled by default, and can be disabled in the settings of the app. Disabling anonymous data gathering also disables all services related to anonymous data analytics, including the aforementioned “live counter” feature of the app.

Gene Keys gathers anonymous app data to know what resources (like text, videos, audio files) app users listen to and read, allowing Gene Keys to optimize app content, such that it maximises value to the community and purpose of the app. Gathered data is also used to measure conversion rates, user journey mapping, and infrastructure management. In the name of transparency, anonymous app event types are listed which may be gathered during app operation:

Pause audio listen
Resource view & call-to-action view
Schedule setting
Privacy setting & privacy policy page visit
Chosen notification sound
App credit page visit
App support page visit
Coarse Approximate Location when pausing

The app may gather anonymous coarse approximate location gathering during pausing, if the user has explicitly allowed this in the settings of the app. The coarse approximate location is gathered to empower future feature development, like showcasing pausing people on a globe-like structure, or map, in real-time. Further, coarse approximate location data may be used for analytics purposes. Submitted data pertaining to crashlytics is not linked to you, and is being gathered by a third party provider: Firebase Crashlytics Services. Crashlytics allows Gene Keys to gather device info right as crashes happen, which give insight to the nature of crashes, empowering Gene Keys with adequate insights towards fixing bugs, and building the best possible app for the users. Gene Keys has no insight nor control over how Firebase Crashlytics Services uses gathered device information, and hence the reader is reffered to the privacy policy of Firebase Crashlytics Services. The app provides the capability to disable crashlytics in the settings of the app. Gene Keys’ anonymous data gathering services operate on the basis of randomly generated identifiers, which are not linked to you, nor your device. We have no capability of linking these randomly generated identifiers to you, nor your device. Gene Keys provides the user the option to fully reset the Triple Flame App, which generates new anonymous identifers, which are not contingent on previous versions of the app, nor on previously generated anonymous identifiers.
