At reGEN Impact Media, we believe that technology should help humans thrive—not replace human wisdom, creativity, or connection. This statement explains how artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and data are used within our website, web-apps, beta tools, and interactive experiences, including Akin, our intuitive media guide.

Our commitment is grounded in three values: transparency, empowerment, and responsible innovation.


1. How We Use AI

We use AI and automation to:

  • Personalize and recommend nurturing media journeys

  • Analyze basic interaction patterns so we can improve your experience

  • Curate or sort user-submitted content

  • Support mood, preference, or wellness-related prompts

  • Provide conversational or guided assistance through Akin

  • Help our team compile, organize, and surface relevant content more efficiently

AI is a tool, not a decision-maker. All major content choices, program design, and ecosystem structures are created by humans.


2. What Akin Does (and Doesn’t Do)

Akin is an AI-powered guide designed to:

  • Ask reflective questions

  • Suggest possible pathways through your media experience

  • Offer prompts, perspectives, and encouragement

  • Help you navigate curated content more easily

Akin does NOT:

  • Make medical, mental-health, or financial recommendations

  • Create psychological profiles

  • Diagnose or evaluate individuals

  • Replace human expertise or support

  • Access private data outside of what you share in the app

You are always in control of what you choose to share.


3. What Data We Use

To personalize your experience, we may collect:

  • Preferences you set (e.g., moods, interests, goals)

  • Basic usage interactions (clicks, feature usage, pacing, time of day)

  • Responses to optional reflections, prompts, or surveys

  • Voluntary feedback you provide

We do not use sensitive information without explicit consent.

Personal data is handled per our Privacy Policy, and any processed data is used to improve your personalized experience or to enhance our regenerative media tools.


4. How AI Works With Your Data

AI may analyze and process:

  • The choices you make in forms or preference settings

  • The content you interact with most

  • Anonymous or aggregated usage patterns

  • User-generated content submitted voluntarily for curation

We use these insights to:

  • Recommend more aligned content

  • Improve the quality and tone of Akin

  • Understand what nourishes and supports our community

  • Build healthier, more intentional media pathways

We do not sell or share your personal data with advertisers, however we may use aggregated, non-personal, non-identifying user data to attract advertisers or partners to our projects.


5. Content Moderation & Curation

AI may assist our team by:

  • Sorting submissions

  • Identifying duplicate or off-topic content

  • Helping surface patterns or themes

However:

  • Final decisions are always made by humans

  • Regenerative principles (care, reciprocity, intention) inform every choice


6. No Dark Patterns. No Manipulation.

reGEN is committed to:

  • No exploitative design

  • No addictive UX patterns

  • No attention-harvesting algorithms

  • No hidden AI usage

  • No emotional manipulation to increase engagement

Our goal is healthier screen time, not more of it.


7. Your Control & Consent

You can:

  • Opt out of certain analytics

  • Choose how much or how little to share

  • Request deletion of your data

  • Decline to use AI-powered features

  • Adjust your privacy settings at any time (these will evolve as we continue to build and develop our systems)

You are always in the driver’s seat.


8. Human Oversight

AI at reGEN supports our process—it does not replace humans.

All recommendations, curated journeys, and Akin interactions operate under the guidance of:

  • Real creators

  • Real producers

  • Real regenerative media practitioners

  • Real ethical oversight

Technology assists. Humans lead.


9. Continuous Improvement & Transparency

As our tools evolve, we will:

  • Update this statement accordingly

  • Clearly indicate new AI-powered features

  • Maintain a commitment to safety, transparency, and user empowerment

  • Continue to centre Indigenous principles, regenerative models, and relational integrity

We welcome your questions and feedback.
