AI & Image Use Policy

At Pine & Thread Creative Studio, we may use Artificial Intelligence (AI) during the creative process, but we are deeply committed to ethical practices, creative integrity, and protecting the people we serve. Our approach to AI reflects these values.

Our Boundaries with AI Use

1. Human-Crafted Final Products
While AI can help with rough ideas or early sketches, your final product will never be AI-generated. Every finished design or item is created by a real person.

“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.”
—Colossians 3:23

“We are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works.”
—Ephesians 2:10

We believe in the God-given value of human creativity and in honouring the process and people behind each piece.

2. No Uploading of Faces to AI Generators
We will never upload any image containing any faces to any AI platform. Your privacy and your family's dignity come first.

“So God created man in His own image… ”
—Genesis 1:27

We recognize that each face reflects the image of God and should never be used carelessly, especially not in ways that could contribute to harmful misuse (like deep-fakes or unauthorized data use).

3. Protection of Children’s Images
If you share images with us, you agree that we may display them on social media or marketing materials, with one firm exception: we will never share images of your children without first blurring or masking their faces. Their safety and dignity matter deeply to us.

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed.”
—Proverbs 31:8

We aim to protect children from being exploited or exposed in ways that digital platforms and AI tools could allow.

Our Commitment to Integrity
No AI-generated art or products will ever be sold as final creations.

We use AI only as a tool to aid inspiration, never to replace the human heart behind the work.

We take seriously the spiritual and ethical responsibility of creating with care and intention.

“Let all that you do be done in love.”
—1 Corinthians 16:14
