1. Purpose
At CliniciansCheck, we believe that innovation must serve humanity — especially in healthcare. This statement outlines our ethical principles and commitment to responsible innovation across all areas of technology, AI, data usage, and platform evolution.

2. Foundational Ethical Principles
We are guided by these core principles:

Respect for Persons: We treat all users, patients, clinicians, and partners with dignity, privacy, and autonomy.

Justice & Equity: We aim to reduce bias, support inclusion, and promote fair access regardless of geography, background, or digital literacy.

Non-Maleficence: We will not introduce features that knowingly risk harm or mislead users, even if legally permissible.

Transparency: We commit to clear communication about how data, AI, and platform logic are used.

Accountability: We take full responsibility for the systems we design and deploy — including AI and automation.

3. Ethical AI and Innovation
We follow responsible innovation practices including:

Human Oversight: No automated system makes binding decisions without the possibility of human review.

Bias Mitigation: We conduct ongoing audits to reduce algorithmic bias and ensure representative system design.

Explainability: We strive to make AI tools explainable to non-technical users and subject to ethical review.

Patient Impact Review: Any technology impacting patients undergoes internal risk review before release.

4. Research, Collaboration & Continuous Improvement
We engage with:

  • Ethical advisory boards and university partners
  • Patient advocacy groups
  • NHS DSP Toolkit standards and AI assurance frameworks
  • Cross-border legal and human rights experts

We welcome collaboration with regulators, innovators, and researchers who share a commitment to ethics in digital health.

5. Public Engagement and Reporting Concerns
We encourage public feedback on our technology and ethics practices. Concerns can be sent to:

operationsteam@clinicianscheck.com with the subject line "Ethics Concern".

6. Review and Accountability
This statement is reviewed annually. All internal teams are trained on these principles. Material changes to our platform or AI tools are reviewed for ethical impact prior to deployment.
