Policies

A governance firm should publish its own governance.

Omnira designs policy architecture for a living. These are the policies we hold ourselves to — written in plain language, because a policy nobody can read protects nobody.

Effective August 2026 · Reviewed annually
Policy I — Privacy

What we collect, where it lives, and what we will never do with it.

If you can't tell what a firm does with your information by reading its privacy policy, the policy is working as intended — for the firm. This one is written to work for you.

What we collect

When you complete the Architecture Snapshot, the AI Readiness Assessment, or the Diagnostic intake, we collect what you provide: your name, business name, email, role, sector, headcount range, optional revenue range, and your responses. That is the full list. We do not run advertising trackers, third-party analytics scripts, or marketing pixels on this site — none.

Where it lives

Your responses are transmitted over encrypted connections and stored in an access-controlled database encrypted at rest, hosted with established infrastructure providers. Access is restricted to Omnira. Transactional email (such as your assessment copy) is sent through a dedicated sending service; we do not use your address for anything you didn't ask for.

What we will never do

Your data is never sold, rented, traded, or shared with third parties for their own use. No exceptions, no "trusted partners," no fine print reversing this sentence.

Your rights

Email MJSolomon@OmniraConsulting.com at any time to request a copy of what we hold about you or to have it deleted. We honor both without friction.

Policy II — Data Use

Your data is used to serve you — and only in aggregate beyond that.

Measurement is Omnira's craft. That is precisely why we are strict about what measurement is for.

Primary use

Your assessment responses are used to score your instrument, generate your report, and inform any engagement you pursue with us. We may follow up with you about your results. That is the primary and dominant use of your data.

Aggregate benchmarks

Anonymized responses may inform aggregate benchmarks — for example, how businesses in your sector and size band typically score. Before any response enters an aggregate, identifying information is removed. We never display a benchmark cell containing fewer than five businesses, so no individual company can be inferred from a comparison. If the data is too thin to say something honestly, we say nothing.

Employee surveys in Diagnostic engagements

When a Diagnostic includes a confidential survey of a client's team, anonymity is achieved by architecture, not promise: we do not collect names, individual tracking tokens, or network identifiers; timestamps are rounded to the day; results are never broken out for groups smaller than five people; and open-text comments are synthesized in findings, never quoted in a way that could identify the writer. Leadership receives patterns, not people.

Policy III — AI Use

We built AI governance at enterprise scale. We govern our own AI the same way.

A firm that advises on AI governance and hides its own AI use has told you everything you need to know about its advice.

How we use AI

Omnira uses AI tools in research, analysis, drafting, and development. This makes the work faster and, applied correctly, better. We say so plainly because it is true and because pretending otherwise would be a strange position for the firm that designed one of the first enterprise generative AI governance programs.

Human accountability

Every deliverable that carries the Omnira name is reviewed, validated, and owned by the practitioner. AI accelerates the work; it does not replace the judgment you are paying for. Nothing is delivered to a client that has not been personally examined and stood behind.

Client data and AI tools

Client-identifying information is only processed in AI tools operating under commercial data-protection terms — meaning the provider does not train its models on our inputs. Client confidentiality survives contact with our toolchain, full stop.

Transparency on request

Any client may ask how AI was used in their engagement and receive a direct answer. The same standard we build into governance frameworks for clients applies to us first.

Policy IV — Conflict of Interest

When we recommend a tool, nobody is paying us to say it.

Advice is only worth what its independence is worth. Ours is not for sale, rent, or referral fee.

No vendor economics

Omnira accepts no referral fees, commissions, reseller margins, or affiliate payments from any software vendor, platform, or service provider we recommend. When we name a tool in your engagement, the recommendation is based on your architecture — not our economics. If that ever changes for a specific relationship, it will be disclosed to you in writing before any recommendation is made.

Competitive engagements

We do not concurrently serve direct competitors on overlapping strategic matters without the informed consent of both parties. Where a potential conflict exists, we disclose it and, if it cannot be resolved, we decline the work. Declining an engagement is cheaper than compromising one.

Personal interests

Any material financial interest Omnira or its principal holds in a company relevant to a client's engagement is disclosed before that relevance can influence a recommendation.

Policy V — The Omnira Code of Ethics

The standards the work is held to — whether or not anyone is watching.

Omnira's principal spent years leading corporate ethics and policy governance at enterprise scale. This code is shorter than those programs. It is not weaker.

Candor over comfort

We report what we find, not what is easiest to hear. If a diagnostic reveals that your architecture is sound and your problem lies elsewhere, that is the finding you receive — along with our recommendation for who can actually help.

Measurement honesty

We never manufacture precision. Ordinal data is presented as ordinal, benchmarks are only shown where the sample supports them, and no chart in an Omnira deliverable implies certainty the underlying data cannot carry. A confident-looking number built on thin data is not analysis; it is theater, and we do not perform it.

Confidentiality

What we learn inside your business stays inside your engagement. Client identities and engagement details are not used for marketing without express written permission.

You own the work

Deliverables belong to the client at delivery — systems, documentation, and the understanding to run them. We do not build dependency into architecture and call it partnership.

Honesty about people

Workforce optimization affects human beings. We present its realities without euphemism and without cruelty, we plan transitions responsibly, and the decision about freed capacity always remains the owner's. We will not dress a workforce decision in technical language to help anyone avoid owning it.

Counsel reviews policy deliverables

Any policy Omnira drafts for a client is designed to be reviewed and approved by the client's legal counsel before taking effect. We architect; your attorney ratifies. That sequence is non-negotiable, including when it slows things down.

These policies are plain-language commitments, reviewed annually and updated when our practices change. Questions about any of them are welcome — asking is free.

This is what governance looks like when it's applied to oneself first.

If you'd like the same discipline applied to your business, start where every engagement starts.
