Crowd Code of Ethics

The Code of Ethics shows our dedication to the well-being of our Contributors and is built on a foundation of fair pay, inclusion, and privacy and confidentiality. It formalizes the best practices Appen has developed over the past several years to support and promote contractor wellness.

Fair pay

We ensure our contributors are paid fairly and strive to provide above minimum wage compensation across our global markets. 

We also create opportunities for contributors to increase their earnings and develop their professional goals for long-term success. Our Fair Pay program benefits our Crowd and communities. 

We ensure our global contributors are compensated fairly through built-in technology capabilities in our platform.

Communication

We believe in helpful, transparent, and responsive lines of communication with our crowd.

Well-being

We promote wellness, community, and connections through online forums and best practices.

Inclusive

A diverse, inclusive culture is vital to our mission of helping build better AI. We offer opportunities for individuals of all abilities and backgrounds.

Crowd voice

Our Crowd has a valued voice at Appen, and their feedback helps us to continuously improve.

Privacy and confidentiality

Any information collected about the crowd is requested solely for the purposes of the project. We take precautions to protect that information and do not release private data on individuals to third parties without consent.
