We adhere to ethical frameworks such as the FTC Endorsement Guidelines, ANA Ethics Code, the Institute for Advertising Ethics Principles, and any applicable industry codes of conduct. We also have developed our own principles which we put in place day-in and day-out, both in how we carry ourselves in the world and how we work.
1. Truth First, Always
We commit to honesty in every message, avoiding deception, manipulation, or omission, no matter the medium or the metric.
2. Respect for Audience Autonomy
We honor the consumer’s right to make informed decisions by ensuring transparency, clarity, and freedom from coercive tactics.
3. Privacy is a Priority, Not a Loophole
We treat personal data with dignity and a minimization mindset. It should be collected with consent, protected with care, and never exploited.
4. Inclusion is Non-Negotiable
We strive for representation, accessibility, and cultural awareness across every campaign.
5. Transparency in Client Relationships
We are upfront about our values, partnerships, conflicts of interest, and limits.
6. Social Responsibility Over Virality
We measure impact beyond clicks. We prioritize campaigns that uplift, educate, or empower rather than shock or mislead.
7. Creative Integrity
We commit to original thinking, proper attribution, and fairness in creative collaboration.
8. Accountability Without Excuses
We take responsibility for outcomes, good or bad, and create mechanisms for feedback, correction, and improvement.
9. Sustainability in Messaging and Method
We avoid greenwashing and strive for environmental truthfulness in how we promote and operate.
10. Ethics as a Practice, Not a PR Statement
We embed ethical reflection into every process, from brainstorming to reporting, and treat it as an evolving discipline.
