Edanz Pharma’s Approach to AI

Introduction

We believe it is important to accurately and honestly communicate to everyone how we use—and how we do not use—AI in our work. Our approach to AI is grounded in the following three principles:

When AI is involved in our work, we appropriately disclose that fact.

We never use your data for the purpose of training AI models.

Qualified human experts bear ultimate responsibility for all deliverables.

These principles are consistently upheld across all of our operations.

AI Usage Policy

Examples of AI Use

Integration and efficiency improvement of various systems and business processes
Drafting and summarizing internal documents
Preliminary research and analysis, including market research, pharmaceutical product research, and disease background summaries

In all cases, AI is positioned as a supplementary tool, with expert review and judgment as prerequisites.

Areas Where AI Is Not Used

Sharing confidential information with AI systems that may use it for training purposes
Use of generative AI tools in the writing or editing of manuscripts
Use of AI tools whose data handling policies and security frameworks have not been fully verified

Basic Policy on Data Handling

We use only AI platforms with enterprise-level privacy assurances, including opt-out from model training.

We never input personally identifiable information or highly confidential client data into publicly available AI tools.

All AI tools we use are managed under the same confidentiality obligations and information management standards that apply to all of our operations.

This policy outlines our fundamental approach to AI use. Specific operations are managed in accordance with our internal regulations and related policies.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Protecting the safety and trust of your data is our top priority.
