EU AI Act Compliance
Last Updated: February 11, 2026
Introduction
Alfares is fully committed to compliance with the European Union Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AI Act) and all related regulations. As a provider of AI-powered software development services, we ensure that all our AI systems and services comply with the highest European standards for AI safety, transparency, and ethical use.
What is the EU AI Act?
The European Union Artificial Intelligence Act is the world's first comprehensive legal framework for artificial intelligence. It establishes rules for the development, deployment, and use of AI systems within the EU, ensuring that AI is safe, transparent, traceable, non-discriminatory, and environmentally friendly.
Our EU AI Act Commitment
Core Principles
We adhere to the fundamental principles of the EU AI Act:
1. Human Agency and Oversight
- Human Control: We ensure that AI systems remain under human control and oversight

- Transparency: Users are informed when they interact with AI systems
- Human Intervention: Mechanisms are in place for human intervention in AI operations
2. Technical Robustness and Safety
- Reliability: Our AI systems are designed to be reliable and perform consistently
- Accuracy: We maintain high accuracy standards and minimize errors
- Security: We implement robust security measures to protect AI systems
- Resilience: Our systems are resilient to attacks and adversarial inputs
- Fallback Plans: We have contingency plans for AI system failures
3. Privacy and Data Governance
- Data Protection: We comply with GDPR and other data protection regulations
- Data Quality: We ensure high-quality training and operational data
- Data Minimization: We collect and process only necessary data
- Data Security: We implement strong data security measures
- Privacy by Design: Privacy considerations are integrated into AI system design
4. Transparency
- AI Disclosure: We clearly disclose when AI is being used
- Explainability: We provide explanations for AI decisions when possible
- Documentation: We maintain comprehensive documentation of AI systems
- User Communication: We communicate AI capabilities and limitations clearly
5. Diversity, Non-Discrimination, and Fairness
- Bias Mitigation: We actively work to identify and mitigate biases in AI systems
- Fair Treatment: We ensure AI systems treat all users fairly
- Diversity: We promote diversity in AI development teams
- Accessibility: We ensure AI systems are accessible to diverse user groups
6. Social and Environmental Well-Being
- Social Impact: We consider the social impact of our AI systems
- Environmental Impact: We minimize the environmental footprint of AI operations
- Sustainability: We promote sustainable AI development practices
- Social Responsibility: We take responsibility for the societal effects of our AI systems
7. Accountability
- Responsibility: We take responsibility for our AI systems and their outcomes
- Auditability: Our AI systems are auditable and traceable
- Compliance Monitoring: We continuously monitor compliance with the AI Act
- Remediation: We have processes for addressing AI system issues
AI System Risk Classification
Prohibited AI Practices
We do not develop or deploy AI systems that:
- Use subliminal techniques to manipulate behavior
- Exploit vulnerabilities of specific groups
- Use social scoring for general purposes
- Use real-time remote biometric identification in public spaces (except for law enforcement with authorization)
High-Risk AI Systems
For high-risk AI systems, we implement:
- Risk Management System: Comprehensive risk assessment and mitigation
- Data Governance: Strict data quality and management practices
- Technical Documentation: Detailed technical documentation
- Record Keeping: Maintenance of logs and records
- Transparency: Clear information for users
- Human Oversight: Appropriate human oversight measures
- Accuracy and Robustness: High standards for accuracy and robustness
Limited Risk AI Systems
For limited risk AI systems (e.g., chatbots), we ensure:
- Transparency: Users are informed they are interacting with AI
- Clear Communication: Clear communication about AI capabilities
- User Control: Users can opt out or request human assistance
Minimal Risk AI Systems
For minimal risk AI systems, we follow:
- Best Practices: Industry best practices for AI development
- Ethical Guidelines: Ethical guidelines for AI use
- Continuous Improvement: Ongoing improvement of AI systems
