I
conduct all my business in an ethical and professional manner,
with truth, accuracy, and responsibility, taking pride in
my work.
I will serve my clients with integrity and competence. I will respect my
clients needs and wishes, listening carefully to what the client says.
I will communicate clearly the terms of our working agreement with clients
at the start of our business relationship and clarify the expectations of all
parties involved.
I recognize my limitations and will only provide service and/or use technologies
based on my current level of competence and expertise. I inform clients of
conditions that may limit my effectiveness and only guarantee results that
are within my power to deliver. I always refer my clients to a more specialized
professional if their needs are beyond my abilities.
I am accountable for the work I do, and admit my mistakes and correct them
promptly.
Information entrusted to me by clients will be treated with strict confidentiality.
I maintain a high standard of confidentiality, and I will not use any of your
confidential information for personal benefit.
I keep sufficient records of my work and client relationships in general.
The physical records are my property. The information in the records is the
property of the client. I will not release information contained in client
records without the consent of the client or by court order.
I seek and am open to feedback. I will always consider any feedback given
and improve my practices if applicable.
