Karen Hammons Co. does not control how third-party AI providers process information submitted directly to their platforms.

Avoid entering highly sensitive, confidential, proprietary, medical, legal, financial, employer-confidential, or personally identifying information into an AI platform unless you have reviewed and accepted that platform’s privacy practices and are authorized to share the information.
