We strongly believe that AI should inspire, assist and guide our customers so that they may create more relevant, focused and quality content.

  • Use bots or code to automatically generate content on any of our services or platforms

Medical content

We will not allow any medical content to be created on our system. Allowing the AI to create medical content can only be considered a recipe for disaster.
