Code of Conduct client

AstraZeneca

Open — With Guardrails

AstraZeneca has published its own AI ethics framework rather than relying only on contract clauses — they expect partners to work within five principles: being explainable and transparent, fair, accountable, human-centric, and private and secure. It's a genuinely permissive account as long as you can show your working.

Key requirement — AstraZeneca's AI Code of Conduct is built around five principles — explainability, fairness, accountability, human-centricity, and privacy/security. This is a relatively permissive client; the ask is to document your AI use well enough to demonstrate you're meeting those principles, not to avoid AI.
