Ethical Practice

 Team name: Emily Van Tongeren 

Your school: Hornby High School

Title of your project: Gf Scanner 

Ethical focus   What action will you take?

Informed and Voluntary

consent by those

Participating: Everyone Will have their identities kept secret, and would be thanked for their participation.

Privacy and

Confidentiality: All personal information will be kept secret and confidential, therefore no one else but themselves and I can see their information. 

Avoidance of

unnecessary deception:  All products and information in the app will be personally checked over and have warnings when needed. 

Social and Cultural

Sensitivity: From what i know of there won't be social and cultural sensitivity as everyone will be able to access and use the app, it's there to help those that need it and the color of your skin or your beliefs don't change anything. 

Other things you are

thinking about in

relation to ethics: no one will be able to edit any information apart from their personal info and the only person who can change information is myself when there is an ingredient change or something similar to that. 

Human Ethics Planning Template

Ethical focus What action will you take?

Research design: it is to have an app to help people with celiac or gluten intolerance/ free. 

Information to any

participants (in research

related to your project): So this app is to help people with/that are celiac or gluten intolerance/ free. Especially that it's becoming a common thing and not everyone understands what it is and what they can and can't have.  

Level of risk:

(Low/Medium/High, based on

likelihood of ethical breach and

consequence of it) There is a medium risk as ingredients can change on products but we will attempt to keep on top of it.  

Permissions:  no human permissions, N/A or camera on phone 

Respect for participants: each participant will be treated with the up most respect, we accept all beliefs and cultures, and everyone will be able to use and be treated the same.
