Privacy by design
Collect only what is useful, understand why it is needed and give people meaningful control over their information.
METREM develops and advises on technology with a focus on usefulness, privacy, security, transparency and appropriate human control.
Ethical technology is not a final review added after a product has been built. It is a design consideration. As METREM develops AI and connected products, we want data collection, user control, security, accessibility and foreseeable impact to be considered alongside performance and commercial value.
Collect only what is useful, understand why it is needed and give people meaningful control over their information.
Use automation to support people rather than remove appropriate judgement, accountability or routes to challenge decisions.
Treat secure architecture, access control, monitoring and responsible handling of information as core product requirements.
Explain what a system is designed to do, where important limitations exist and when users are interacting with automated technology.
Design technology so that different users, devices and access needs are considered from the beginning.
Test assumptions, monitor outcomes and revisit decisions as products, risks and expectations change.
