Scientific Independence & Ethics

Safeguards for trustworthy scientific production

  • Scientific content and speaker selection are conducted independently of sponsors or commercial partners.
  • Mental-health data are treated as highly sensitive health data; privacy and data minimization are essential.
  • Suicide and self-harm communication follows safe-language principles, avoids triggering detail and includes appropriate help pathways.
  • Digital mental health and AI projects transparently report data source, model version, validation population, bias and performance limitations.
