AI Policy Template (docx): Download a formal AI governance policy for compliance, risk management, and EU AI Act alignment. Ready-to-use Word document. AI Policy Template is a 20-page Word document available for immediate download upon purchase.

AI Policy Template is a comprehensive Word template designed to help organizations establish a formal internal policy for the responsible development, procurement, deployment, use, monitoring, and retirement of AI systems. It provides a governance foundation for organizations that need to define how AI may be used, who is responsible for AI-related decisions, and which minimum requirements apply across the AI system lifecycle.

The template covers the key components of an organizational AI policy, including purpose, scope, applicability, policy statement, governance principles, prohibited and restricted AI uses, AI system inventory requirements, AI risk management, AI system impact assessment, data governance, development and procurement requirements, testing and validation, monitoring, incident management, documentation, training, third-party management, and continuous improvement.

It is designed to support alignment with AI governance programs, AI management systems, EU AI Act compliance activities, and ISO/IEC 42001-style governance structures. The policy can be adapted by organizations that are beginning to formalize AI governance, as well as by more mature organizations that need to consolidate AI-related expectations into a single internal policy document.

The document is particularly useful for legal, compliance, privacy, risk, information security, procurement, HR, product, and management teams. It can serve as a board-approved or management-approved policy, an internal governance baseline, a reference document for AI users, or a foundation for more detailed procedures, registers, assessments, and control documents.

The template is written in formal policy language and includes placeholders for document control, ownership, approval, business unit applicability, exclusions, and related documents. This makes it easier to adapt to different organizational structures without starting from a blank page.

This template may be adapted by the purchaser for internal business use or for a specific advisory engagement. It should not be resold, redistributed, sublicensed, published, or included in another template library or standalone commercial product. This template is provided for governance and compliance support and does not replace legal advice for a specific organization, AI system, or jurisdiction.
