The **Arkansas Office of State Technology** is the Department of Shared Administrative Services office named on the produced statewide Artificial Intelligence Acceptable Use Policy.
## Roles in this corpus
Its policy, final and effective 2026-02-26, governs Executive Branch AI use and requires approved tools, human oversight, security, auditability, and training. It prohibits AI-only binding decisions and surveillance, profiling, or tracking without explicit statutory authority ([[ACIN AI Policy and CLEST Training Packet]], `GOV-202_Arkansas_AI_Acceptable_Use_Policy_Final_2026-02-26.pdf`, pp. 1-4).
## Notes
ACIN cites the policy as governance authority. The production contains no separate OST approval of ACIN's Peregrine or LeadsOnline services.
