Crowd Code of Ethics
Our crowd code of ethics includes promises from us to our contributors and is is based on years of experience working with contributors across the globe, creating high-quality AI training datasets. As part of this work, we realized that taking care of our contributors’ well-being correlated with improved output. In light of that, we wrote our crowd code of ethics. In our code of ethics, we include aspects of fair pay, inclusion and representation, crowd voice, privacy and confidentiality, communication, and overall well being.Fair Pay
At Appen, contributor pay is based on their local marketplace. No matter where an Appen contributor is located, we pay above minimum wage. With more than 1 million contributors in over 130 countries around the world, we make sure that each contributor is paid fairly.Inclusion
One of the magic qualities of data annotation is that the work is accessible to people of diverse backgrounds and abilities. Our contributors complete a simple test and application prior to working on a project. This allows people with diverse backgrounds to work with Appen and be represented within AI data.![](https://s41256.pcdn.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/220616-Fairpay_2_Blog.jpg)
