Governance & Trust

FutureAI operates on principles of transparency, fairness, and accountability.

Full Transparency

Every evaluation, decision, and role change is recorded in a public, immutable audit log.

Fair Evaluation

Experts declare conflicts of interest. Institutional evaluations are weighted 1.5x, volunteers 1.0x.

Data Protection

GDPR compliant. Full data export, deletion on request, explicit consent required.

Open Governance

Roles (NGO, Research, Municipality) are verified by the admin team. Every change is audited.

Ethical AI Statement

FutureAI is committed to using artificial intelligence responsibly and ethically:

  • No automated decisions without human oversight
  • API keys belong to users — no data flows through our servers
  • All scoring algorithms are public and verifiable
  • No discrimination in access or evaluation
  • Right to be forgotten guaranteed (complete data deletion)

Conflict of Interest

Expert panel members are required to declare any conflict of interest before evaluating a submission. Declarations are public and associated with the relevant challenge.

Any evaluation where a conflict is declared is flagged in the export report.
