Ethics & Standards

Ethics & Standards

How GRI protects participants, data and the credibility of its findings.

Research ethics and data protection are treated as institutional obligations, not project-level formalities. They apply to every study, in every market.

Research ethics

The principles that govern how GRI engages participants and reports findings.

  • Respect for research participants
  • Informed participation where applicable
  • Confidentiality and responsible handling of personal information
  • Responsible data collection and storage
  • Transparency regarding methodology and material limitations
  • No fabrication, deliberate manipulation or misrepresentation of findings
  • Compliance with applicable laws and professional standards
  • Safeguards for sensitive research and vulnerable participants

Data protection

GRI recognizes that research may involve personal and sensitive information. Appropriate safeguards govern the collection, access, storage, analysis, transfer and disposal of data in accordance with applicable legal and professional requirements.

Protecting credibility

Credibility is protected through research design, quality controls, responsible data practices, transparent methodology and a clear separation between evidence-based research and promotional objectives elsewhere in the Gojely ecosystem.
