Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy

Effective Date: 21st March 2025

1. Introduction

At Big Picture Film Club, we use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance our services, provide personalised insights, and support filmmakers in making informed decisions. This policy outlines how AI is used on our platform and how user data is processed in AI-driven features, ensuring transparency, fairness, and compliance with data protection laws.

2. How We Use AI

We use AI in the following ways:

2.1 Personalized Film Insights & Reports

When users submit information through our Value Your Film tool, AI may analyze the data to generate insights, comparable film titles, audience trends, and strategic recommendations.

2.2 Automated Responses & Recommendations

Our AI models may analyze submitted project details to suggest:

  • Suitable funding, marketing, or distribution strategies
  • Industry trends and best practices
  • Next steps based on your project stage and goals

2.3 Content Generation & Optimisation

AI may assist in generating:

  • Draft consultation reports
  • Industry insights and data-driven predictions
  • Automated email sequences personalized to user personas

2.4 Customer Support & Chatbots

For faster responses, AI may be used in chatbots or automated emails to answer common queries, direct users to relevant resources or schedule consultations.

3. Data Collection & Processing in AI

Our AI tools process only the data users voluntarily provide, including but not limited to:

  • Film/project details (title, genre, budget, distribution goals).
  • Marketing preferences and audience insights.
  • Submission responses and form inputs.

AI-generated recommendations are not decisions but insights to assist users in making informed choices. Users remain fully responsible for final decisions regarding their film projects.

4. User Control & Opt-Out Options

We believe in user autonomy. If you do not want your data processed by AI, you may:

  • Opt-out of AI-driven insights by contacting us directly at hello@bipicturefilmclub.com.
  • Request deletion of AI-generated reports or data.
  • Choose manual consultation services instead of AI-assisted recommendations.

5. Data Privacy & Security

We handle AI-processed data in compliance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws. AI-generated insights are used exclusively for the intended purpose and are never sold or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

All AI tools we use are either developed in-house or sourced from reliable, GDPR-compliant providers.

6. Limitations & Responsible AI Use

While AI improves efficiency and accuracy, it is not perfect. Users should be aware that:

  • AI-generated recommendations are not legal or financial advice.
  • Insights are based on available data and may not account for unique industry variables.
  • AI tools are continuously updated and may evolve to improve accuracy.

7. Policy Updates

We may update this AI Policy from time to time to reflect technological advancements and regulatory changes. Users will be notified of any significant changes.
