Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before you buy.

Why do I need an AUP if I already have an Employee Handbook?

Employee handbooks rarely cover the specifics of technology use - AI tools, shadow IT, monitoring rights, and BYOD. A standalone AUP gives you a dedicated, enforceable technology use policy.

Does the AUP cover AI tools like ChatGPT?

Yes. Section 4.6 specifically addresses generative AI tools, prohibiting input of confidential or customer data without IT approval and requiring that all AI tool use on company devices is subject to monitoring.

Is the monitoring rights language legally sufficient?

The template includes standard monitoring rights language. For jurisdiction-specific legal requirements, consult your employment attorney - monitoring laws vary by state and country.

What format does it come in?

Editable Microsoft Word (.docx). Compatible with Google Docs and LibreOffice.
