Code of Ethics
Why do we need a code of ethics?
The Global CTO Forum (GCF) members are expected to share a high understanding of professional and ethical standards. The professional alignment with the commonly accepted norms will positively affect how the GCF community collaborates and communicates. In the meantime, the code of ethics will allow GCF members to make the best possible decisions concerning their professional life.
There are only four canons in the GCF Code of Ethics. Adherence to the Code of Ethics is a condition of becoming a member of the GCF.
The code of ethics canons are;
- Protect the community, social welfare, and the environment.
- Utilize technological and environmental resources with frugality and prudence.
- Treat your partners, clients, colleagues, and peers diligently and respectfully.
- Respect and protect intellectual property and personal data.
The Code of Ethics promotes:
- Honest and responsible conduct in all collaborations.
- Sustainable treatment of technological and intellectual resources.
- Continuous technological improvement.
- Protection of all private, confidential, and proprietary digital data.
- Building trust among members by the way ethical decisions are made.
