• Transparency
  • Full disclosure of conflicts of interest, potential or real.
  • Admission of errors and disclosure on our sites and blogs, and encouragement of the same on our clients' sites/blogs.

• Attribution
  
  • Accrediting all information on a website to its original author, along with linking to that source.
  • Respecting copyright law for all images and other copyrighted material.

• Accountability: Every action taken on behalf of clients is directly accountable to the client, and must pass their review before any public interaction transpires (PR sent, site launched, etc.)

• Compliance with W3C (international Internet protocols). Compliance with client requirements (legal, financial).

• Quality Control: No site launches, including individual pages, without prior testing in a controlled environment.

• Environmental Stewardship: We keep the planet in mind with our practices in and outside of the office, such as recycling, a print-limitations policy, car pooling, virtual meetings and telecommuting arrangements where possible.
