AI Compliance & Governance
GlobalB Law advises businesses building, deploying, or procuring AI systems on compliance obligations, governance frameworks, and contractual risk allocation across the EU AI Act, US federal guidance, and Turkish regulatory developments.
The regulatory environment for artificial intelligence is hardening rapidly. The EU AI Act, the world's first comprehensive AI regulation, introduces risk classification, conformity assessment, technical documentation requirements, and high-stakes obligations for providers and deployers of AI systems in the EU market. At the same time, the US is developing sector-specific AI guidance through executive orders and agency rulemaking, and Türkiye is updating its regulatory framework to address AI in healthcare, finance, and public administration.
GlobalB Law works with companies at every stage of the AI value chain: model developers, application builders, enterprise deployers, and procurement teams evaluating AI vendors. We map AI systems against the risk tiers defined in the EU AI Act, identify prohibited practices and high-risk use-case requirements, and design governance structures, including AI registers, human-oversight protocols, and incident-response procedures, that satisfy regulatory expectations while remaining operationally workable.
On the commercial side, we advise on how to allocate AI-related liability and compliance obligations between vendors and customers in procurement contracts, SaaS agreements, and API terms. This includes liability for AI-generated outputs, obligation to maintain technical documentation, and the shifting compliance burden as regulations evolve.

FAQ
Häufig gestellte Fragen
Does the EU AI Act apply to us if we are based in Türkiye but have EU customers?
Yes. The EU AI Act applies extraterritorially to providers placing AI systems on the EU market and to deployers using AI systems whose outputs affect persons in the EU, regardless of where the provider is established. A Turkish company with EU-facing AI products must comply with the Act in the same way as an EU-based provider.
What counts as a 'high-risk' AI system under the EU AI Act?
High-risk systems are defined by Annex III of the Act and include AI used in biometric identification, critical infrastructure, education, employment decisions, access to essential services, law enforcement, border control, and administration of justice. The definition is extensive; many enterprise applications fall within it. We conduct a formal classification assessment as the first step of any AI Act compliance engagement.
We use a third-party AI model in our product. Are we responsible for its compliance?
Deployers, companies that use third-party AI systems in their own products or services, have independent compliance obligations under the EU AI Act. This includes ensuring the system is used in line with its intended purpose, maintaining logs, informing users when they interact with AI, and not using the system for prohibited purposes. Contractual allocation between vendor and deployer is critical; standard AI vendor terms rarely address these obligations adequately.
What internal governance does our company need before deploying AI?
At minimum: an inventory of AI systems in use and under development, a risk classification for each, human-oversight mechanisms for decisions that affect individuals, a technical-documentation file, and an incident-response procedure. For high-risk systems, the AI Act adds formal conformity assessment, registration with EU authorities, and post-market monitoring obligations. We design governance frameworks calibrated to your actual risk exposure.
